The two teams will be forever linked by their shared lineage in Queens and the crossover among their fan bases.
It has been 40 years since the Jets and Mets shared a stadium.
The Mets entered 2023 with the largest payroll in baseball and a pair of veteran aces, Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer, to lead the rotation. The team is in fourth place. Verlander and Scherzer have inflated ERAs. The Mets are staring way up at the Braves, who have tormented them for what feels like forever.

It takes one bad quarter to cause an overreaction. Max Scherzer is pulled from the game by manager Buck Showalter in the fourth inning against the New York Yankees at Citi Field.“There’s a difference between being ready and prepared,” Saleh said. “Ready is, I won’t get into it, but we’re prepared for everything. Again, we have no control over this, but we have control over what we put on the field for ourselves every day.
