In this article, we will formulate a NY Yankees vs NY Mets Prediction for this MLB game on Wednesday, July 24th at Yankee Stadium.
Is This the Series for the Mets?
The Mets need that series to turn around the season, and maybe all they need is this series against the Yankees. The Mets scored three runs on Tuesday, and they leaned on the pitching. Jeff McNeil hit a home run and drove in two RBIs. The Mets are averaging 4.83 runs, while their pitching is giving up 4.7 runs per game. The offense is ranked 8th in the league, while the pitching is ranked 23rd in the league. They have a run differential of 0.12 which is 16th in the league. Pete Alonso has hit 19 home runs and driven in 51 RBIs. Getting the start for the Mets will be Sean Manaea who sits with a 6-4 record and an ERA of 3.73. In his last start against the Marlins, he went five innings giving up eight hits and five runs.
Yankees Need Success Against Their Rival
The Yankees want bragging rights against the Mets, and Tuesday wasn’t what they needed. The Yankees offense only managed two runs and that led to the defeat. The Yankees are averaging 4.19 runs, while their pitching is giving up 3.91 runs per game. The offense is ranked 1st in the league, while the pitching is ranked 6th in the league. Aaron Judge has hit 35 home runs and driven in 89 RBIs. Getting the start for the Yankees will be Gerrit Cole, who sits with a 3-1 record and an ERA of 4.60. In his last start against the Tampa Bay Rays, he went six innings, giving up six hits and one run.
Why the Yankees Will Beat the Mets
- The Mets have lost seven of their last eight road games against AL East opponents.
- The Yankees have won each of their last three night games following a loss.
- The Mets have failed to cover the run line in 12 of their last 13 road games against American League opponents following a road win.
- The Yankees have covered the run line in five of their last six games as home favorites against NL East opponents following a home loss.
NY Yankees vs NY Mets Prediction
I have faded Cole at times this season, but not here. In his last start, he gave up six hits and one run, and he’s going to dominate here. The Mets offense is going to really struggle here and that is going to be the difference as the Yankees are going to get the job done. The Yankees are going to get to Manaea early and the Yankees will cruise. Back the Yankees on the money line to cash.
