It’s crunch time for the Miami Marlins.

The Marlins reside one game outside of a playoff spot with six games remaining in their season.

The New York Mets are eliminated from postseason contention, but are 7-3 against Miami this season.

The Amazin’s Joey Lucchesi and Miami’s Braxton Garrett will meet in a rematch of the Marlins’ 4-3 victory last week.

(7:10 p.m. ET., SNY)

Lucchesi has been steady for the Mets since returning from Tommy John surgery this season.

He’s maintaining a 2.88 ERA in eight starts, with several bus tickets to Triple-A Syracuse in between.

Since his latest call-up, he’s allowed two earned runs in 12 ²/₃ innings for a 1.42 ERA — including striking out five against Miami. 

Garrett hasn’t allowed a run in two consecutive starts that each featured seven strikeouts and lasted six innings.

He’s been Miami’s most reliable starting pitcher, with a 9-6 record to accompany a 1.14 WHIP and a 3.53 ERA. 

We’re looking at two top-heavy lineups trending south in team OPS (Mets .724, Marlins .723).

Neither team is hitting exceptionally well when facing each other at Citi Field this year, as both are batting .235 or worse.

This duel of lefties cashed on the Under last week. I’m expecting another diligent game. 

THE PLAY: Marlins-Mets Under 7.5 runs (+100, BetRivers)
