The Gold Sheet released Under 8.0 for Mariners‑Blue Jays, leaning on two in‑form starters. Bryan Woo followed a 9‑3, 2.89 ERA rookie year by opening 2025 at 2‑0 with a 2.84 ERA and 0.95 WHIP, working at least six frames every start. Bowden Francis owns a 1.06 WHIP and has allowed three or fewer earned in all three outings, including a two‑hit, six‑inning gem in his only Rogers Centre appearance. With both arms capable of stretching deep, The Gold Sheet expects a drastic pace change from Seattle’s 18‑run shoot‑out in Cincinnati the night before.
Weather and pitching likely producing low-scoring getaway day
The Gold Sheet recommended betting under 7 total runs in Wednesday's Marlins-Mets matchup, noting several key factors. Weather conditions at Citi Field will be cold with temperatures in the mid-40s and real-feel temperatures in the 30s, conducive for a quick, low-scoring game. Additionally, Miami starter Max Meyer offers a different challenge to Mets hitters; after seeing softer-throwing pitchers earlier in the series, the Mets now face Meyer, who hit 96.4 mph and accumulated a 15:3 K-to-BB ratio across his first two starts against Atlanta and Pittsburgh. Likewise, Mets starter Tylor Megill has been dominant with a 0.87 ERA and 0.87 WHIP in two starts versus Houston and Toronto. The Mets' bullpen remains fresh, and the Marlins' Ryne Stanek threw only nine pitches in Monday's save, ensuring high-leverage options are available. All these elements combine for a projected low-scoring contest.
