Stephen Nover's MLB Thursday Bookie Basher
(MLB) Arizona vs. NY Mets,
Money Line: -114.00 Arizona (Away)
Result: Loss
The Diamondbacks have been a disappointment so far this season after making the World Series last year.

But the Diamondbacks are in much better shape than the Mets.

The free-falling Mets are 4-15 in their last 19 games. They just lost their best power-hitter, Pete Alonso, to a hand injury and were ripped by pitcher Jorge Lopez following a 10-3 loss to the Dodgers last night.

Fair to say, morale is not exactly good in the Mets' clubhouse.

Now the Mets have to face Arizona's star pitcher, Zac Gallen. New York is going with rookie Christian Scott, who is 0-2 with a 3.97 ERA. The Mets are without closer Edwin Diaz, who recently went on the injured list with a shoulder injury.

The price is low enough to back Gallen.
