The New York Mets are set to begin an anticipated series with the Los Angeles Dodgers.
It hasn’t been the season the Mets have hoped for, as they are 43-60, and sit in last place in the NL East.
However, the schedule must roll along, and MLB’s top team, the Dodgers, are coming to Citi Field for a three-game set.
After getting the day off on Wednesday, the Mets have announced a notable Juan Soto lineup decision before game one of the Dodgers series.
