Mets vs Nationals Prediction

I’m on the Mets here. I get that the Nationals have been a team that’s been able to provide value for much of the season. However, the Mets are rolling along right now, and while a lot of their recent wins came against the Colorado Rockies, they have momentum and take on a pitcher in Gore they’ve had success against in the past. Gore historically has struggled on the road. I’ll roll with the Mets at home in this one.
