New York Mets vs Miami Marlins 29 May 2026 Prediction

The Mets still cannot find consistency. With one of the weakest records this season, they remain near the bottom of the standings. There are fewer games left, and the team has not shown enough positive signs. The Marlins are not far ahead, but expectations were also much lower for them because the roster is not as strong. Miami will send Max Meyer (5-0, 2.52 ERA) to the mound, and the team has looked comfortable and confident with him starting. Based on that, the pick is Marlins to win.

As for New York’s starting pitcher, the Mets will also have a steady and reliable option in Freddy Peralta (3-4, 3.52 ERA). Looking at the broader team numbers, neither side has been involved in many high-scoring games. Their head-to-head series from a week ago is a good example, as those games averaged only 4.0 total runs. This matchup also looks more likely to stay low-scoring. The pick is under 7.5 runs.
