David Wright led the Mets 9-3 win in game 3 of the World Series with a HR and 4 RBI's and Syndergaard earned the win. The Mets sliced into the Royals lead and now are down two games to one.

CF was down for he first two games in which the Royals won. Hosmer, Moustakas, Zobrist, and Alex Gordon have done well for the Royals.

I did a breakdown of all teams in the 2015 post season baseball thread.

To answer your question, I'd have to say the Mets over the Royals.

The Royals have some good core white players in Hosmer, Zobrist, Moustakas, and Alex Gordon, but have a lot of black/Dominican pitching. They acquired Cueto from the Reds and he's won them a WS game so far. Royals are up 3-1.

The Mets can start 5-6 white players at a time including most of their pitching, including NL ROY candidate Jacob de Grom, Harvey, and Snydergaard. The other Met players who start are: Murphy, Duda, Wright, d' Arnaud, and Cuddyer.


On a side note: While CF was down Mets 2b Daniel Murphy set a MLB record by hitting a HR in six straight post season games. Pretty amazing!

The Kansas City Royals win The World Series in 5 games. I was pulling for the Mets, but it wasn't all bad. It could've been worse if the Texas Rangers had made it and won.

The main three white players for KC all had their moments, including Eric Hosmer racing home last night on an infield ground out to tie the score. Alex Gordon, Moustakas, and Zobrist all played fairly well with Gordon hitting a HR in game 1.

Three of the four wins were credited to white pitchers including, Chris Young, Ryan Madson, and Luke Hochevar.

I really thought the Cubs had a shot this year, but they got swept by a team they dominated in the regular season. It was completely unexpected. If the Cubs can land Grienke and another decent starter, they will be set.
