Huge game here and the Braves have the edge being home with a pitching matchup of Luis Severino vs. Spencer Schwellenbach. That's the way the oddsmaker sees it and that's the way I see it, too.
Severino has been solid for the Mets. However, he has a high road ERA of 4.80 and a bad history against the Braves. Severino has pitched 50 1/3 innings lifetime against the Mets and his ERA is 6.62.
The Braves have several injuries, but they did get back Ozzie Albies.
Schwellenbach has a 3.18 ERA this month. He held the Reds to one run in six innings during his past start. Schwellenbach faced the Mets once - and pitched seven scoreless innings against them.
The Mets could be without Francisco Lindor, who is questionable with a back injury. Lindor has the highest batting average among Mets regulars and is second on the team in homers and RBI's.
