Texas Rangers vs. New York Mets Analysis
Dane Dunning will pitch in the Texas Rangers game today. Dunning is a 28-year-old from Orange Park, Florida.
The right-hander is seeking his 10th win of the season. His ERA is in the Top 15 in the American League with a 3.36. In his last outing, he went four innings, allowing five hits and four runs while walking six in a loss to the Twins.
Adolis Garcia has garnered some MLB MVP Odds at various points in the season and has been a huge bright spot for the Texas offense. He has 32 home runs on the season and needs just five RBIs to reach 100. In the win on Monday, Nathaniel Lowe singled in two in the ninth inning to beat the Mets. Lowe leads the team with a .282 batting average.
Mets’ Reliable Arm
For the Mets, Kodai Senga will get the start. Senga has been solid, with a 10-7 record and a 3.17 earned run average. This will be his 25th start of the 2023 season. He is coming off a tough outing against the Angels, where he allowed two runs in 6.2 innings and took a loss to the Angels at home.
The Mets, at this point, are just playing out the end of the season. Pete Alonso has been a bright spot with the bat, at least the power numbers. He is one home run shy of 40 and needs four more runs batted in to reach 100 on the season.
The Mets got good news when they found out their closer Edwin Diaz is looking at making a return before this season ends, which would bode well for a big 2024 season.
