The 56-44 New York Mets will hand the ball to Kodai Senga tonight when they open a 3-game set with the 49-50 Los Angeles Angels at Citi Field. When Senga gets the nod, good things happen. He has been lights out all year with a record of 7-3, an ERA of only 1.39, a 1.13 WHIP, and New York is 5-0 in his last 5 starts. The Halos are expected to counter with lefty Tyler Anderson and his numbers are mediocre at best. Anderson comes in at 2-6 with a 4.34 ERA and 1.37 WHIP. New York has been inconsistent of late but is still 56-44 overall, 34-16 in Queens, and with Senga on the hill, the Mets are the side to consider.
