New York at New York

The New York Mets have had a surprisingly great season. They were lined up in the same division as the Washington Nationals, a team the pundits projected as the winningest team in the regular season, according to season win totals. The Nats never lived up to that billing, while the Mets have all but secured the division championship with an eight game lead with just two weeks to go. The Mets have gotten a lot of mileage out of a young and talented rotation, and now have added Steven Matz, who is 3-0 with a 1.80 ERA. The Yankees have their ace, Masahiro Tanaka, but his numbers pale in comparison to Matz'. Additionally, the Mets have been sticking it to righthanders at 38-18 in their last 56, and are also now 12-3 in their last 15 series openers. Take the Mets in this one.
