New York Mets vs Detroit Tigers Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 09/03/25

The Mets have taken the first 2 games of this series by scores of 10-8 and 12-5. The New York offense is rolling, and they are set to go up against a struggling Casey Mize in this one. Mize was named an All-Star for the first time in his career in July, but has struggled ever since. The former No. 1 overall pick held a strong 2.85 ERA through June, but has since posted a 6.32 ERA in July and a 5.81 ERA in August. Now, his ERA for the season has ballooned up to 3.95. Trying to get back on track against the Mets is a tough ask, as New York is dialed in at the plate right now.

The Mets will send veteran right-hander Clay Holmes to the mound in the series finale at Comerica Park. Unlike Mize, Holmes has been consistently solid in recent weeks. Homes has allowed 2 earned runs or fewer in 6 of his last 7 starts, and has allowed 5 hits or fewer in 4 of his last 5 outings. The Tigers are in a bit of a rut right now with losses in 7 of their last 9 games. The Mets are coming out of their rough patch they suffered last month, and should be able to complete the sweep in this one. Back the Mets on the road.
