The New York Mets have been one of the hottest teams in baseball as of recent as they have won 9 of their last 10 games which has put them only 2.5 games out of a Wild Card spot. The New York Mets have one of the best starting rotations in baseball, and if they want to make a run at the postseason, they will need guys like Matz and Wheeler to step up at the backend of the rotation. Luckily the Marlins are dealing with a ton of injuries, so their below-average bats are depleted even more which should allow the Mets pitchers to have a field day. The Mets also have one of the best young bats in baseball as Pete Alonso comes into his game with 35 HRs and 80 RBIs. Final Score Prediction, New York Mets win 6-3.
