LA Dodgers vs NY Mets Prediction 10-14-24 MLB Picks

In this article, we will formulate a LA Dodgers vs NY Mets Prediction for this MLB Game on Sunday, October 14th, at Dodger Stadium. The winner of this series will face the Yankees or Guardians in the World Series.

Mets Have to Forget About Game 1 

The Mets have to really forget about the first Game if they don’t want this series to slip away from them quickly. The Mets finished the first Game with two errors, three hits, and zero runs, and after they gave up the two runs in the bottom of the first it was basically over. There were a lot of bad at bats and towards the end of the Game it looked like they were just waiting for the second Game to start. No batter had more than a hit and Francisco Lindor and Pete Alonso both failed to pick up a hit. Kodai Senga got the start and he was awful going 1.1 innings giving up two hits and three runs. 

Getting the start for the Mets will be Sean Manaea who sits with an 0-1 record and an ERA of 2.25. In his last start against the Philadelphia Phillies he went seven innings giving up three hits and zero runs. The Mets are going to need him to dominate here. 

How Do The Dodgers Build on Sunday? 

As much as the Mets want to forget the first Game, the Dodgers want to build on Sunday’s Game. The Dodgers finished the Game with nine runs and nine hits and that was enough to come away with a victory. The team didn’t hit any home runs and they still were able to pick up the win. Mookie Betts finished with one hit and three RBIs. Max Muncy also finished with a hit and two RBIs. Jack Flaherty was on the mound and he dominated going seven innings giving up two hits and zero runs.The Dodgers only had to use two bullpen members also. This Game is going to be all hands on deck with a bullpen Game. 

LA Dodgers vs NY Mets Prediction

Sunday’s Game was high scoring but Monday’s Game is going to be different. I really trust Manaea and he’s going to dominate the Dodgers here. I also expect the Dodgers bullpen Game is going to find success, and that is going to be the difference here. Look for only two or three runs total to be scored and this Game is going to end up staying well under the total. Back the under to cash here.
