The Mets hold on first place in the NL East is tenuous, and the Braves are hot on their heels, just 1.5 games out of 1st place, which means whichever team takes this series will walk away as the division leader.
New York is 53-33 coming off a split series with the Marlins. They dropped Game 4 2-0 after an error in extra innings cost them the game. The Braves are on a three-game home streak after sweeping the Nationals over the weekend.
Last time these teams met, they split the series, which means both teams will look to assert dominance and break the season tie this week.
