Mets vs Blue Jays Prediction 

Toronto comes into this matchup after a very ugly series with the Rangers over the weekend and they have lost five games in a row. The Blue Jays are 22-24 at home this year, while the Mets are 16-25 on the road. New York has lost six of their last seven games and they are last in the NL East. The Mets are starting Manaea, who has allowed two earned runs or fewer in four of his last five outings, while Yesavage has allowed 1, 3, 5, 6, and 1 earned run in his last five starts. Both teams are struggling, but I will side with Yesavage and the Blue Jays at home.
