There are many disputes among baseball fans on which New York team is better. Despite the New York Yankees 22-12 record so far, the New York Mets have been doing outstanding thanks players such as Ike Davis, David Wright, and Johan Santana. Their record may not be as great as the Yankees, landing third in their division at 18-17, but their players can do anything in their power to change that record into a better record. The Mets may have gotten winning streaks, but their performance isn't as good as when they started the season. The Yankees also have lost a coupe of games, but they are proving that they want to get to another World Series. Players such as Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez, and pitcher CC Sabathia have helped the Yankees get as many wins as possible. However, the Mets right now do not show that they can make it to the World Series. A couple of more losses and they can have a losing record so far. Mets fans are waiting to see their team play as great as they did when they started. I believe that the Yankees have a better chance of making it to the playoffs than the Mets. This is because the Yankees have better players that can make game winning plays. Also because their record is better, since they are in second place in the entire league. While the New York Mets have been stealing the spotlight in the beginning of the season with their many wins and losses, the New York Yankees have been silently earning their winning record, trying to reach a second consecutive World Series. The Yankees also have a better chance at making it to the World Series since they have a better history of being in a World Series. The Yankees have been in 40 World Series and won 27. The Mets, however, been in four World Series, and won only two.
