The Mets have some ground to make up over the last six weeks of the season.
Miami has snuck ahead of New York and now they are on the outside looking in on the playoffs. Arizona’s season has been sunk for a while and they are playing for next season.
If the Mets can’t get it done against these guys they don’t deserve a chance to return to the World Series.
Arizona Diamondbacks
Arizona has sunk to 30th in team ERA but their offense has not been stellar this season.
I would admit to not watching a ton of their games but when you look at the numbers of their core players they should score more than they do.

Goldschmidt, Lanb and Tomas have more than 60 homers between them and are all hitting over .270.
I wonder if this group is suffering from some bad cluster luck and might be a team to watch down the stretch as things tend to even out.

As this is being written on Wednesday the Mets are 2.5 games behind Miami for the final playoff spot.
The gap is one thing but what is more concerning is that they have won only 4 of their last 10.

Last year Cespedes also needed some time to adjust but Bruce should have an easier time as an established NL player.

Noah Syndergaard continues to impress but he has not been as dominant as he was earlier in the season – he has not struck out more than 8 batters in a start since the middle of June.
He needs to start getting some support to have a

Free Arizona Diamondbacks vs. New York Mets MLB Prediction:
Based on the mound matchup there is no way you can get behind Arizona hear. Shipley has shown little to indicate he can master even the most meager of lineups.
I am afraid with Thor on the mound the only way to play this one with any value will be on the run like. Given the way the Mets struggle to score there is no guarantee there.
