Vegas Play of the Day: St. Louis Cardinals at New York Mets

Here’s the latest installment of the Play of the Day, which uses odds from the South Point. Our three sports writers started with a $10,000 bankroll — fictional, of course.

New York Mets minus-128 vs. St. Louis Cardinals: $384 to win $300

The Cardinals have the best record in the National League, but I’ve done OK this baseball season backing pitchers in spots that I like and even against St. Louis, I like New York’s Matt Harvey tonight.

Harvey has been great this season, so I’m not exactly going out on a limb, and combined with the Mets coming off two home wins — they’re 15-4 at home this season — I think New York’s ace is in a good position to keep the momentum rolling.

Standings: Bern (78-69-1, $11,250), Keefer (80-78-2, $10,197), Brewer (69-83-3, $1,725)
