The Mets, who are hoping to rebuild a franchise that has struggled over the last several seasons, finished with a record of 74-88 last season and fourth place in the National East Division.

The Yankees went 95-67 and won the American East Division title but were bounced from the playoffs by the Detroit Tigers in the American League Division Series.
