Mets’ right-handed bats will be key against Johnny Cueto

The Mets enter Game 2 of the World Series looking for a split in Kansas City after a brutal loss in Game 1. The Royals announced Johnny Cueto as their Game 2 starter, but we won’t know until the game is underway which Johnny Cueto shows up.

Cueto has been a very good starting pitcher in his career with the Cincinnati Reds. That has not always been the case since his trade to the Royals earlier this year. He sported a 2.62 ERA, 8.3 SO/9 and .196 batting average against with the Reds, but with Kansas City those numbers have dipped to a 4.
