New York Mets vs. New York Yankees Prediction

I’m on the Yankees in this one. Christian Scott has been arguably one of the best arms the Mets have had over the course of the second half of the season, but the Yankees’ bats have come to play since the return of Aaron Judge into the lineup. The Mets have been playing some solid ball in their own right, but Cam Schlittler is playing very well as well, and I think the Yankees bounce back with the win on Sunday. Give me the Yanks.
