Bet on Mets futures all year

You can bet on the Mets through the futures market beginning in the off-season and through the playoffs. Each day, the odds are adjusted for what has happened with a focus on factors such as the standings, the team’s current form, injuries, and playoff scenarios.

The advantage of betting through the futures market is better odds. The earlier you bet something, the higher your potential future payday will be in all likelihood. For example, if you think the Mets will win the title, you can place your bets on their current World Series odds before the season begins. If they are playing well, the odds might drop by mid-season, but you’ll be locked in at a more favorable price.

You can also bet the Mets to win the NL East or take down the NL Pennant. In addition to team futures, you can bet player futures. You can in terms of stats: How many home runs will Pete Alonso hit, for example?

What is not available, though, are markets involving player awards. NY state law prohibits sportsbooks from accepting bets on the likes of who will win the MVP or Cy Young.

Mets schedule 2024 

The Mets will play 13 games each against the four other teams in the National League East: the Atlanta Braves, Miami Marlins, Philadelphia Phillies and Washington Nationals.

They will also play 46 interleague games against the American League, with four of those being against the Yankees.

All told, the NY Mets play a 162-game schedule. There will be plenty of highlights for Mets fans to look forward to from Opening Day to the final series of the MLB season.

Mets betting lines explained

Below is an example of the betting lines for a Mets game with an explanation of what each bet type means:

• Run line: What is the run line in baseball betting? If you bet a favorite to cover the run line, you are predicting they win the game by at least two runs. If you bet the underdog to cover the run line, you are predicting that they either win the game or keep it within a run. This is similar to spread betting in other sports or puck line betting in hockey. Due to the variance in baseball, teams are usually underdogs to cover the run line as favorites.
• Moneyline: Pick the winner. It doesn’t get simpler than that. Moneyline betting odds are adjusted based on the likelihood of each team winning. In the above example, the Mets are slight favorites to beat the Phillies. To win $100 by betting the Mets, you’d need to risk $135. Conversely, a successful $100 bet on the Phillies would return a $115 profit.
• Total: Just like every other sport, total betting is a fun way to get involved in the game without caring who wins. Simply pick whether the teams will combine to score more or fewer runs than the listed total.

Mets Vegas odds vs. online odds in New York

Both Vegas and the local sportsbooks use similar methods to set their lines. They rely heavily on analytics and computer models with some small adjustments for outside factors such as injuries or public perception.

The main difference you’ll see locally is if you bet the hometown team. Local sportsbooks might move the lines slightly away from the home team because they don’t want to expose themselves to one-sided action. Local bettors tend to bet more heavily on their home teams.

Mets live betting

If you miss the first pitch of a Mets game, it doesn’t mean you’re too late to get in on the action. With live betting, you can bet on baseball at any point after the game has started. The oddsmakers will adjust the odds based on what has already happened in the game.

For example, if you notice that a particular pitcher is dealing and is keeping his pitch count low, you might want to live bet the Under. If the Mets fall behind early but you expect their offense to rally, you can live bet on the Mets to win at better odds than they were before the game started.

You can also live bet various props such as the next team to score a run, whether the upcoming batter will get a hit, or which team will win the next inning.

Live betting is best with a mobile sportsbook app, since you can bet from anywhere in the state. If you’re running late coming home from work, you can place a bet without needing to be in front of a computer. You can also track your bet easily from your phone.

Why bet the Mets over the Yankees?

Baseball fans in New York are blessed with two teams that are expected to compete for the World Series. The Mets have long lived in the shadow of the Yankees, but the Mets have had success of their own, including a pair of World Series wins. There are some good reasons why you should place your hard-earned money on the Mets over the Bronx Bombers.

• Reputation: The Yankees have a reputation as the class of professional sports. They are one of the most popular sports teams in the world and they’ve done a lot of winning over the years. For this reason, their lines are usually inflated and provide minimal value on a game-by-game basis. There’s potential for value on the Mets in the early going based on their reputation.
• Rivalry: Regardless of the talent on either roster, a Mets vs Yankees series is hotly contested. Any of the two teams can win on any given day.

Mets dports betting partnerships

In April 2022, the Mets entered into a multi-year agreement that made Caesars Sportsbook an official sports betting partner of the team.

As a result of that partnership, the Mets opened Caesars Sportsbook at the Metropolitan Grille in the left-field corner of the Excelsior Level. While not an official retail sportsbook, should legislation pass to authorize it, the space could certainly convert into a brick-and-mortar betting space.

For now, the lounge features dining and hospitality for guests, complete with ample seafood options, tacos, flatbreads and more. On top of that, the space boasts plenty of flat-screen TVs and panoramic views overlooking the field.

Mets bench staff

The Mets manager is Carlos Mendoza. His bench coach is John Gibbons, the hitting coach is Jeremy Barnes, and the pitching coach is Jeremy Hefner.

Past Mets managers

In recent years, the Mets employed Buck Showalter, Luis Rojas, and Mickey Callaway. Current skipper Carlos Mendoza is in his first season in that position for the Mets.
