The New York Mets won both games of their doubleheader yesterday with the Atlanta Braves. Expect more of the same today when they wrap up their 4-game series in an early one at Citi Field. The Mets are comfortably atop of the NL East, with a record of 18-8 on the season and 9-4 in Queens. On the flip side, the Braves are not playing like reigning World Series Champs. Atlanta is a disappointing 11-15 overall and just 5-8 away from Truist Park. Today’s expected pitching matchup favors the Mets. Tylor Megill is slated for New York. He is a perfect 4-0 with an ERA of only 1.93 and a 0.86 WHIP. Atlanta is expected to give the nod to Ian Anderson. He is 2-1 with an elevated ERA of 4.66 and a 1.29 WHIP.
