Miami Marlins at New York Mets (2026-08-02). Sandy Alcantara vs Robert Stock at Citi Field.
Starters — Alcantara brings a 3.77 ERA, 1.19 WHIP, and 152.2 innings with 6.96 K/9, 2.3 BB/9, and 1.0 HR/9. His last three appearances were 1.2 scoreless innings with 2 strikeouts and no walks, 7 scoreless innings with 5 strikeouts and 1 walk, and 7 innings with 5 earned runs, 3 strikeouts, and 1 walk. The listed trend is down, but the recent game log still shows two strong outings around one rough start. Stock has a 1.80 ERA, 0.60 WHIP, and 5 innings with 7.2 K/9, 0.0 BB/9, and 1.8 HR/9. His only listed recent start was 5 innings, 1 earned run, 4 strikeouts, and no walks. The obvious caution is sample size, as his profile is built on just 5 innings.
Teams — Miami has the stronger offensive line in this matchup with a .734 OPS and 495 runs, compared with New York at a .683 OPS and 457 runs. The Marlins are hitting .250 as a team and are 5-5 over their last 10, while the Mets are batting .233 and are 4-6 over their last 10. On the pitching side, Miami also holds the better full-team run prevention numbers with a 4.01 ERA and 1.24 WHIP, versus New York at 4.11 ERA and 1.29 WHIP. Bettors looking at form and baseline production will note that Miami owns the edge in season-long offense and overall staff efficiency, while New York is leaning more on what Stock can provide in a very limited body of work.
