Detroit Tigers vs New York Mets Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 05/14/26

The first 2 games of this series between the Tigers and Mets have not been the cleanest baseball we’ve seen this season. Both teams have made multiple errors, been undisciplined at the plate and suffered from several base-running miscues. New York has taken the first 2 games, but the value in the series finale is on the Tigers with odds of +145 on the money line.

Detroit will send Keider Montero to the mound, and he has allowed just 2 total earned runs over his last 2 starts and 12.2 innings of work. He seems to be in a groove right now, and the Tigers have won 4 of his last 6 outings. Thus, Detroit seems to be in a decent spot here.

On the other side, New York will send Nolan McLean to the mound. His overall number are quite solid, as he enters this matchup with a 2.78 ERA and 0.90 WHIP. However, the Mets have won just 2 of his 8 starts. McLean hasn’t received much run support, and with Montero rolling the way that he is, that could be the case for McLean once again.

The Tigers are in a rut right now, but laying this much juice on the 17-25 Mets is a risky move. Make it a small play, but consider backing the Tigers with odds of +145 on the moneyline.
