Detroit Tigers vs. New York Mets: Experts Predict Another High-Scoring Battle

The Detroit Tigers and New York Mets face off again tonight at 19:10 ET, and betting experts are pointing toward another explosive, high-scoring game. After back-to-back contests producing double-digit runs, tipsters expect the trend to continue.

On bettingexpert.com, several analysts are backing the Over 8.5 runs market. User greekbanker23 noted:

“The home side lost the first two games of the current series, and both went well above the total line. I believe the total is set too low once again. Bet on over 8.5 runs to win.”

Another community tipster, mlk85, reinforced the same angle:

“The previous two head-to-head games ended with Mets winning 8–10 and 5–12. Both pitchers, C. Mize and C. Holmes, have shown inconsistencies. I’m going with Over 9 runs total.”

Why it matters: Detroit will be desperate to bounce back at home, but New York’s lineup has been relentless, scoring 22 runs across the last two matchups. With neither bullpen showing stability, bettors are anticipating another slugfest.

Expert consensus: Over 8.5 runs is the favored pick, with confidence growing that tonight’s matchup could surpass even that mark.
