This is about as big of a baseball rivalry there is as the Subway Series between the Mets and the Yankees will begin tonight in the Bronx. The Yanks spent big in the off-season, but are two games over .500. And now their starting pitching is missing Sabathia, Pineda, and Nova, the Yanks have to be concerned. Hiroki Kuroda is pitching like a 40 year old running out of gas. The Mets have played better than expectated to date, just two games the worse of their rivals here. The Mets are 7-1 in interleague play in their last eight vs. a right hander, have taken four straight in this series, and will not be intimidated. The Yankees are now 3-7 in Kuroda's last 10 starts as he begins to decay with age. Make the play on the New York Mets.
