The Pirates were flat Friday, but Saturday sets up as a strong bounce-back spot. Bubba Chandler brings the clear pitching edge, going 1-0 with a 3.05 ERA and 19 Ks over his last four starts. He also has the rhythm advantage over Stock, who has pitched just once this season and owns a career 4.71 ERA/1.59 WHIP. Pittsburgh entered the series hitting .256 overall and .271 at home, while the Mets were at just .234. The Pirates also hold a significant scoring edge, 588 runs to 482. Better starter, better offense, better spot, I’m backing Pittsburgh.
