This has the potential to be a good series. I am leaning with the Reds in game 2.
The Reds have more talent up and down their lineup, but the Mets have played more consistent throughout the year.
I look for Wade Miley to pitch a good game against this team. Cincinnati should be able to score some runs against whoever starts for the Mets.
I like the Reds on the moneyline here.
