Why you should back the Yankees

Center fielder Aaron Judge is a phenomenal difference-maker on the diamond. Judge has light tower power and an effortless swing. The six-time All-Star also has a rocket of an arm from the outfield. He's eighth in the league in batting average (.309) while ranking first in home runs (35), RBI (89) and OPS (1.114). In Monday's contest against the Rays, he was 2-of-5 with two base hits.

Right fielder Juan Soto is one of the top power hitters in the game. Soto does a great job adjusting when at the dish and isn't overly aggressive. He has the ability to make consistent contact due to his plate coverage. The 25-year-old is ninth in the league in batting average (.308), sixth in home runs (25), tied for fifth in RBI (71) and third in OPS (1.020). On July 22 against the Rays, he was 3-of-5 with two homers and four RBI. See which team to pick here.

Why you should back the Mets

Third baseman Mark Vientos has been a nice spark for the Mets. Vientos owns an easy swing and has patience at the plate. When the 24-year-old makes contact, the ball can carry. He also makes all the routine plays defensively. He's hitting .291 with 12 home runs and 33 RBI. In his last outing, Vientos went 1-of-4 with a double.

Left fielder Brandon Nimmo is a smooth athlete who has good instincts. Nimmo continues to be a playmaker with good range. The 31-year-old brings a great approach as a hitter. He leads the team in RBI (63) and OBP (.354) with 16 home runs and a .239 batting average. Nimmo has recorded a hit in 10 of his last 14 matchups. See which team to pick here.
