The Cleveland Guardians New York Mets will play a double-header on Sunday, with the second of two games serving as the Sunday Night Baseball matchup.
The prime time showdown will boast a pitching duel worthy of its time slot as Shane Bieber of the Guardians will take on Justin Verlander of the Mets.
Let’s dive into the odds for the game and then I’ll give you my best bet.

Both offenses in this game have been subpar in the month of May, to say the least. In fact, the Guardians sport the second worst OPS this month at .620. The Mets haven’t been a whole lot better, coming in at 19th with an OPS of .705.

Now, both offenses have to try to get something going against some top notch pitching.
Even Justin Verlander, who hasn’t been great in his first handful of starts, is dangerous to pitch a gem of a game at any time. he has only had three starts this season so he’s going to find his grove soon, and when he does, watch out.
Meanwhile, Shane Bieber has been his usual dominant self, sporting a 3.20 ERA.
Two star pitchers facing two dwindling offenses is a recipe for an UNDER bet.
