Subway Series continues this weekend when the New York Mets host the crosstown rival New York Yankees for three games at Citi Field. It is potentially a World Series preview, though neither team has looked the part of a World Series contender the last 3-4 weeks.

Our Yankees vs. Mets predictions expect a solid Marcus Stroman outing in this Subway Series opener. The reeling New York Yankees will renew the Subway Series with the New York Mets on this Independence Day afternoon.

Stroman is once again allowing more hits than innings pitched (9.4 per nine innings) while also striking out hitters at a career-low rate (five per nine innings). He looked better in his return from knee inflammation last time out, allowing three hits over five innings against the Athletics, but he may have been a bit lucky.
