New York Mets DFS SPIN
Francisco Lindor went 2-for-5 and hit a three-run homer Monday as the Mets topped the Braves 10-4. Lindor had been stuck on 22 homers for 15 games, though he’d actually raised his average from .235 to .252 during that span. He hasn’t finished with an .800 OPS since coming in at .854 in 2019, but he’s at .804 right now.
Atlanta Braves DFS SPIN
Marcell Ozuna delivered a pair of solo homers against the Mets in a losing cause Monday. It’s the third two-homer game of the year for Ozuna. He has 26 homers for the season and seems like close to a shoo-in to reach 30 for the second time in his career.

Mets vs. Braves MLB BETTING PREDICTION
Megill is 1-2 with a 7.20 ERA and 5.40 FIP over his last three starts, which span 15 innings. Meanwhile, Elder is 2-2 with a 3.99 ERA and 4.63 FIP across his last five outings, which spanned 29 1/3 innings. Given the explosiveness of Atlanta’s offense, coupled with Megill’s struggles and a collective ERA of 6.63 for New York’s bullpen since August 1, give me the over tonight in Atlanta.
