Make Mets vs. Dodgers Picks on PrizePicks
The Mets’ anemic lineup contributed to them losing again Monday. Bouncing back may not be easy with Yamamoto on the mound for the Dodgers on Tuesday.
In particular, Lindor might have a difficult time breaking out of his slump. As good as McLean has been for the Mets, Freeman could remain productive against right-handed pitching at home.
