New York Mets at Washington 7:05 ET
Mets over Nationals- If the New York Mets are going to make a serious bid for a wildcard spot in the NL the first nine days after the All-Star break will be crucial to their plight as they start the second half with series against three straight division leaders. Monday they send their ace Matt Harvey (8-6 3.07 ERA) to the mound against rival division leader Washington who like the Mets dropped 2-of-3 in their first series back. Harvey is 2-0 over the Nationals this season pitching 13 scoreless innings and is now 3-1 with a 0.68 ERA in six career starts against them. His opponent on the hill is Gio Gonzalez (6-4, 3.99) who is 8-4 with a lifetime 2.87 ERA against New York. Still, Harvey is the key here. Take the METS!
