Chicago at New York

The New York Mets are 25-14 on the season. They appear to be coming out of a stretch of games that had them go 4-6, but the signs are there that this team is ready to be themselves again, as they have won three of their last four. They beat the Chicago Cubs last night 7-2. The Cubs have been all about offense this season, as their 225 runs scored are the best in MLB. The Mets' pitching staff ranks 3rd in MLB in fewest runs allowed. We got a glimpse last night of how good pitching controls good hitting. The Cubs have dropped three straight, and they managed just eight runs in those three games. I like the NY Mets in this one.
