Even though Yankees fans are not confident of a win, the team has the ability to beat any opponent in the league.How can the New York Yankees defeat the New York Mets?Josh Donaldson sliding into secondThe New York Mets may have the advantage on the mound, but the Yankees are more than capable of scoring in bunches. If what it takes to defeat the Mets is a high-scoring affair, their stars will have to rise to the occasion.Aaron Judge has been one of the best players all season. He leads the MLB with 37 home runs. The X factor for the Yankees will be their underperforming star Josh Donaldson. If he can step his game up from where it has been recently, his team will become even more dangerous.For the first time in a long time, New York Yankees fans are not confident going into a big series. The Mets' starting pitchers may have the fans intimidated, but rest assured that the Yankees' batters will approach the plate with no fear.
