Madison Bumgarner gave up 26 home runs this year with 19 of those home runs coming on the road. This will be a tough flaw for him to overcome against a hot Mets hitting team that had 218 home runs this year.
On offense, there is a definite difference in the month of September. The Mets offense finished 5th in scoring with 152 runs while the Giants finished 23rd in September scoring with 112 runs. What we have going in this playoff game is the 2016 Mets going against the memory of the 2014 Giants. This Giants team is just not as good and once the Mets get Mad Bum out of the game the Giants relievers will not be a match for New York.

HAHA
I mean, I get the trends and the trends are there for a reason...
But I saw one the other day where someone wrote, last time out so in so beat so in so. YEA... in 1998 !!!
I mean, here is a
photo of the current QB back in 1998....
I get Trends...but things change so much.
Now, if we lose, the Trend is HUGE...but going in, I pay no mind

I agree trends are silly but touts like to find them to make you want to follow them. I only posted what I did earlier because Xeno asked for someone to check the 5-0 record. I don't give a sh!t how he pitched two years ago! The Mets need to get under his skin and piss him off. Mess with his head. Thor needs to buzz one inside on him. I'm with PW and the Mets at home!
BOL to all.
BOL to all.
some trends can be helpful. the 5-0 I think just merely points out he has had success in citifield before, and its really more of just a stat than a trend I think... if he were 0-5 with a 9.00 era at citifield, that would mean something different, and make you think differently. if the 5-0 is meaningless then the 0-5 would be too. it does have some value. it doesn't mean bum will become 6-0 or is due for a loss at 5-1, its just a little info to help paint a picture of possibly what to expect and calculate the risk of plays on each side. though I agree most trends are misinformation and can murky up the picture. For this, if I play the giants, I feel a little more comfortable knowing bum has had no problems pitching at this venue in the past. If I bet the mets I might be a little less confident knowing bums success, but it would not be a firm basis for a play either way
not saying last nights outcome had anything to do with this stat but entering last nights game, e-man had a 5:14 td : int ratio lifetime against the Vikings. For whatever reason that trend continued as he reinforced his reputation for being owned by the purple team with another poor performance. cap tip to minny
