NL East

Suffice to say neither the Mets or Yanks are as hot as the weather in New York as we get set to start the " 2nd half" of the baseball season. The Mets are looking for respectability. The Yankees seek another playoff birth. Both have 2 big questions to settle as the season picks up starting Friday...

Matt Harvey and Zach Wheeler have an even bigger hill to climb then anyone thinks. Not only must they win ballgames, not only do they have to help change what has become a losing culture, on top of this they must lead the Mets out of black cloud city...
