Mets vs Braves Free Pick June 10, 2017.

The Braves will host the Mets in a double-header on Saturday, and I like Atlanta in Game 1. They send a highly touted prospect to the mound, making his major league debut opposite a struggling Robert Gsellman. The Mets have lost five of their last seven, while the Braves have won four of their last six.

Gsellman (4-3, 5.53 ERA) allowed a pair of runs on seven hits and two walks over 5 1/3 innings in a home win over the Pirates his last time out. He’s really been hit hard on the road, where he owns a 9.20 ERA in four appearances. He’s also been roughed up by Atlanta this season to the tune of 11 runs on 18 hits and four walks over 10 innings in two appearances.

The Braves hand the ball to Sean Newcomb, who is a former first round pick (15th overall in 2014). He’s having a fine season in Triple-A, going 3-3 with a 2.97 ERA. The Rookie should get plenty of run support here given Gsellman’s history against the Braves.

Matt Kemp has hammered Mets pitching this season, batting .371 against New York. He’s 6-for-12 lifetime versus Gsellman.

Take ATL.
