Reds vs. Mets Prediction

I’m on the Mets here. It’s just so hard to step in front of the Reds right now and I don’t even feel like doing it now to begin with. The Mets are simply the better team by a wide margin and I think Cincinnati is just cooling off at the worst time for their standards. Give me the Mets to keep rolling here.
