The Cincinnati Reds (49-63) are having a rough road trip, as they have lost 4 of 5. The Reds will hope for better fortune at Citi Field against the New York Mets (45-64), starting tonight at 7:10 PM. The Reds and Mets have gone in complete opposite directions since the Harvey for Mesoraco trade. The Reds, despite their recent struggles, are 41-36 since the trade was announced. The Mets have gone 27-49, and from just 1.0 game out in the NL East to 17.0 games back. Matt Harvey unfortunately will not pitch in this series, but he is certainly already making a splash in New York (more on that below).
