00:00have taken the opening two games of our four-game midweek set in Citi Field

00:04this week, and the Mets have dropped 10 of their last 11.

00:09They turn tonight to Clay Holmes.

00:11Can he get the job done against Atlanta with the Mets booked?

00:15Did I say it is Clay Holmes, right?

00:17Not Chad Holmes.

00:17Clay Holmes?

00:18Yes.

00:18Clay Holmes?

00:18Clay.

00:19Good old Clay.

00:19Clay Holmes, right?

00:20Nearly a dollar and a half favorite for the Amazons at home tonight

00:24up in Flushing.

00:25Supposed to be very warm once again.

00:27NDRS flirting with record temperatures around 97, 98, 99 degrees.

00:32That total is nine.

00:33A ton of scoring last night, not so much in the opening game on Monday night.

00:38What will we see here on this Wednesday?

00:40Ah, we missed out on the title here.

00:42You see the title says Stop the Skid.

00:43Look who's pitching there for Atlanta Braves.

00:45It's the Diddy party tonight up in New York at Flushing.

00:48Diddy Fuentes on the mound, the right-handed pitcher here for the Atlanta Braves.

00:52You see that?

00:53Like, we could have had that.

00:54That was going.

00:54Stop the Skid.

00:55I mean, come on now.

00:56Come on, man.

00:57It's Diddy tonight.

00:58And by the way, you take a look at the New York Mets.

01:00They will hit tonight.

01:01They should be just fine.

01:02First five guys and a lot of really good statistics over the past month

01:05against right-handed pitching.

01:06But for my money, I looked at last night and said,

01:08it's just a struggling team and Strider should be able to hold down the Mets' bats.

01:12The Mets were actually okay against Spencer Strider.

01:13They just imploded in their bullpen.

01:15You take a look at Clay Holmes, there's much better statistics,

01:17even though Clay Holmes does have an ERA of 2.86, which you really like,

01:21but a 4.34 XF number, which is slightly high.

01:24But look at the roster tonight.

01:26If Ronald Acuna and Matt Olsen just don't go, you know, wild at the plate,

01:30let's just say, and each get a home run tonight, multiple RBI,

01:33this should be a night where the New York Mets win.

01:35You take a look at that price point.

01:36It's a minus 144.

01:37They haven't played good baseball.

01:39The Atlanta Braves have owned them.

01:40So if you're handicapping this game, just go like, you know what?

01:42Until the Mets get out of their own way, I'm not going to back them.

01:45I understand it.

01:45But tonight, the matchup makes sense.

01:47I think I have the better pitcher on the mound and the better lineup in my ballpark,

01:51and I'll take advantage of that.

01:52Give me the Mets tonight to get a victory on that money line in hot temperatures in New York.

01:57A couple RBI shots, possibly, yes.

01:59But the Mets, they should take care of business tonight for me.
