Wendle has rough day at plate
Joey Wendle went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts against the Giants on Tuesday. It seems way off that Wendle has started three of the Mets’ last five games while Tyrone Taylor has been on the bench for all five. To be fair, Brett Baty was unavailable for two of those, making Wendle a reasonable option at third. However, the Mets put Wendle at second and Jeff McNeil in left field tonight, even though Taylor in left with McNeil at his usual position was almost surely the better option.
Yastrzemski knocks in three runs for Giants
Mike Yastrzemski knocked in three runs with two singles against the Mets on Tuesday. Both were rather soft hits, and he struck out in his other at-bat, so we’re not sure we’d say his early slump is over. Yastrzemski is hitting .208/.296/.271 through 55 plate appearances.

Mets vs. Giants MLB BETTING PREDICTION
Take the over. Snell has stunk for his new team, as he took another loss on Friday against Arizona. He allowed five runs on nine hits and one walk over 4 2/3 innings. He struck out three and is now 0-3 with an 11.57 ERA and 1.97 WHIP.
On the other side, Manaea did not factor into the decision against the Dodgers lat Friday. He allowed two runs on four hits with three walks over five innings. He’s now 1-1 with a 4.12 ERA and 1.37 WHIP. He’s been fine, but not lights out. I’ll lean with the offenses today at Oracle Park, especially with the way Snell has pitched in the early going.
