Clevinger had been dealing with an illness all week, not COVID-19, that forced the Padres to keep him on the sideline for this series. Even if healthy, it was improbable that Clevinger would’ve received a start in this series. If Clevinger has recovered from his illness and the Padres eliminate the Mets on either Saturday or Sunday, Clevinger could be activated for the Divisional round of the playoffs.
The Mets will try to even their series with the San Diego Padres on Saturday night. New York has Jacob deGrom on the mound, while the Padres counter with Blake Snell. The Mets are +128 (-1.5) on the run line and -184 on the money line, with an over/under of 6.5, over (-114), and under (-106).
