Mets vs Blue Jays Prediction

I’m on the Blue Jays here. I think the Blue Jays have a lot of momentum and figured out a lot of issues in that series sweep over the Nationals to give this team some confidence, especially with the bullpen being able to close out games. The Mets have just been so inconsistent offensively, and I’m not much of a Tylor Megill fan if I’m being honest. The Blue Jays are hitting right-handed pitchers a lot better right now, and I think the Jays get it done in this game. Give me Toronto here.
