The Mets (9-4) and Athletics (5-9) continue their series on Saturday, April 12, at Sutter Health Park. First pitch is scheduled for 4:05 p.m. ET; the game will be broadcast on SNY and NBC Sports Bay Area/California. It can also be streamed on MLB.TV.
The Mets are rolling entering Saturday as winners of seven of their last eight games. They edged the A’s on Friday night thanks to homers from Pete Alonso and Brandon Nimmo.

Mets vs Athletics Preview, Prediction, Betting Analysis
[subheader sizedown=”true” center=”false” text=”Mets Preview: Another Pete Missile?” logo1url=”https://static.sprtactn.co/teamlogos/mlb/100/nym.png” link1=”https://www.actionnetwork.com/mlb/odds/new-york-mets” link1follow=”false”][/subheader]
We’re getting one of the best HR hitters in the league in a big ballpark upgrade at +350 odds vs. an inexperienced pitcher.
J.T. Ginn grades out as an average matchup for HRs, but in Sutter Health Park, I have good value on Alonso at these odds.

At this point, Rooker is a bet for me whenever he’s playing at home.
He missed out on a bomb on Friday by about an inch and he is seeing the ball well.
The matchup vs. David Peterson is right around an average one, but the ballpark is good and the weather is decent.
I have the true odds on Rooker around +300.
- Pete Alonso Home Run (+350; bet365)
- Brent Rooker Home Run (+400; BetMGM)
