The Mets had a grueling West Coast road trip that saw them go 4-6.
They now return to Citi Field to try and turn things around with a nine-game homestand.
The Yankees are coming off a brutal 12-2 loss to the White Sox on Monday after a series win over the Rangers.
The Yankees are atop the AL Wild Card and a half game back of the Orioles in the AL East.
The Mets are one game behind the Braves for the third NL Wild Card spot.
The playoff race is tight with over six weeks to go in the regular season.
One of those teams hanging around in the NL Wild Card is the Cubs. One of their best starting pitchers, Jameson Taillon, joined Joel Sherman and Jon Heyman this week on “The Show.”
New episodes of “The Show” with Joel Sherman and Jon Heyman will be released every Tuesday afternoon through the entire MLB season. Subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google, Amazon or wherever you get podcasts above.
