Free MLB Pick
Jacob deGrom outpitched Kershaw in L.A. in the Mets Game 1 win going 7 innings and not giving up any earned runs in the 3-1 win. The Mets are 19-7 in their last 26 games deGrom has gotten the start and have won 9 of their last 10 road games with him on the hill. Zack Greinke went 7 innings and gave up 2 earned runs in the Dodgers 5-2 win in Game 2 of this series. The Dodgers are 39-10 in their last 49 home games when Greinke has gotten the start and this season he led the Majors in ERA.
Great pitching match up tonight and while this will be another low scoring game I think Greinke will have the upper hand and he will lead the Dodgers to a win, as they advance to the NLDS to face the Chicago Cubs.
