The New York Yankees will play the New York Mets in Game 1 of their series at Citi Field on Tuesday night.

The New York Yankees are 66-31 this season and have lost three of their last five games. New York is coming off of a series win against Baltimore, where they won two out of the three games played in the series. The New York pitching staff has a 3.15 ERA, a 1.09 WHIP, and a .217 opponent batting average this season. The Yankees offense has scored 520 runs with a .246 batting average and a .332 on base percentage. Aaron Judge is batting .294 with 37 home runs and 81 RBI’s for the Yankees this season. The projected starter for New York is Jordan Montgomery, who is 3-2 with a 3.24 ERA and a 1.05 WHIP over 108.1 innings pitched this season.

The New York Mets are 59-37 this season and have lost three of their last four games. The Mets are coming off of a series loss against San Diego, where they lost two out of the three games played in the series. The Mets pitching staff has a 3.60 ERA, a 1.19 WHIP, and a .233 opponent batting average. The Mets offense has scored 447 runs with a .252 batting average and a .324 on base percentage this year. Pete Alonso is batting .274 with 25 home runs and 82 RBI’s for the Mets this season. The projected starter for New York is Taijuan Walker, who is 7-2 with a 2.55 ERA and a 1.09 WHIP over 91.2 innings pitched this season.

The Yankees are 9-2 in their last 11 games against the NL East and 2-5 in their last 7 road games. The over is 13-3 in the Yankees last 16 games. The Mets are 22-6 in their last 28 game one’s of a series and 0-4 in their last 4 Tuesday games. The under is 4-1-1 in the Mets last 6 games. The over is 7-1-1 in these two teams last 9 head to head meetings.

This should be a great game and series between two very good teams that are only separated by a few miles. The Yankees come into this series with a huge lead in the AL East and the most wins in baseball. The Mets come into this game with a two game lead in the NL East over the Braves. Both of these pitchers have had success this season, but these two lineups are very good. I like the over in this game as I think the hitting is just better than either pitching staff.

The pick in this article is the opinion of the writer, not a PickDawgz site consensus.
