wether or not any of the players admit it, mets vs yankees is a high pressure game every time they meet. there is even more pressure on yankees players as the mere thought of losing to the mets scares them silly as they know the boss is watching. i.e. few years back enrique wilson misjudges a fly ball and the boss trades for raul mondesi the next day. with that said, the yankees have a few players who really crap the bed when the pressures on. i am referring to kevin brown and tom gordon. these 2 guys have no clue how to handle pressure. tom gordon his entire career and kevin brown much more recently. with that said my play of the day is ny mets team total over 4, -140. the only way i see this not going over is if the yanks jump on zambrano real early and ease brown into it. although they may get to zambrano, i still don't see the mets bats being held under 4 here. too good a lineup vs too bad of a pitching staff. mets over 4,-140 is the play. any thoughts?

Zambrano has had success against a lot of the yankees as Jeter, Posada and Rodriguez have struggled against him why not take the Mets as a dog?

I think this game will go high. We all know Kevin Brown can start a fire like no other and the Yanks can hit it around pretty good. I'm thinking 12-15 runs.

i agree and am aware zambrano has had success against the yankees. but a couple reasons i'm hesitant to take the mets outright tonite. 1)zambrano has been pitiful in 2005. 2) he did this as a devil ray and pitching againts the yanks in a mets uniform with 55k nutjobs may rattle him a bit more.
i agree with you however and do like th emets as i really feel that brown is useless, but i just think mets over 4 is the safer bet. odds of mets winning this game and scoring less then 4 runs is slim in my book, so i'll go with the team over.
