When you take a look at the current MLB standings, you can clearly see that there are some lopsided divisions right now. It’s easy to forget that there are still a ton of games to be played, and that teams who are down right now may very well find a way to get back into the picture. The New York Mets are 6 games back of the Nationals in the NL East, but they are doing enough to hang in there with a team that has put together one of the best records in baseball this season. The defending champion Kansas City Royals are just a half-game back in their division race, and they know better than anyone that the season is a marathon, not a sprint. The Mets and Royals are a pair of very good teams, and we are going to get to see a rare match-up between them when they start a 2-game series in New York on Tuesday night.

When: Tuesday, June 21 at 7:10 PM EST Where: Citi Field, New York Starting Pitchers: Ian Kennedy Vs Noah Syndergaard TV: SNY MLB Odds: TBAWhy Bet on the New York Mets?
The Mets (36-32) always knew that they were going to be in for a scrap with the Washington Nationals in the NL East, but they probably didn’t figure on the Miami Marlins being as good as they have been this season. The Mets are currently in 3 rd in the division, and really haven’t been doing themselves any favors of late. They have lost 6 of their last 8, and are coming into this one after being swept by the lowly Atlanta Braves. It’s way too early yet to panic, but this team needs to do more if they want to play in the postseason again this year. Noah Syndergaard (7-2, 1.91 ERA) will start for the Mets.Getting in a flow. @JdeGrom19 has back-to-back perfect frames. #Mets pic.twitter.com/uH91PRIh3n
