Marlins-Mets Matchup Set Up for High-Scoring Afternoon

The Miami Marlins and New York Mets are preparing for a matchup that is expected to feature plenty of offense when the NL East rivals take the field on May 31 at 1:40 p.m. ET. With both teams looking to generate momentum, the game is shaping up as one in which run production could play a central role.

A combined total of at least eight runs appears well within reach, putting pressure on both pitching staffs to limit early damage and avoid extended innings. The result may hinge on which lineup can capitalize most effectively with runners on base, particularly in the middle innings as bullpens enter the game.
