MLB Baseball Betting – Sunday 2-Pack - Mets vs. Phillies – Brewers vs. Reds
New York Mets vs. Philadelphia Phillies
This is going to be an interesting game as the New York Mets send out who might be their top pitcher this year, Mike Pelfrey, against their hated rivals, the Philadelphia Phillies. Before you start laughing at me, let’s take a look at Pelfrey’s stats. He’s not nearly as heralded as Johann Santana or Pedro Martinez, but with Martinez out of action and Santana just pitching okay, Pelfrey has solidified himself as the man opposing batters should most fear when facing the Mets. He is 2 and 0 on the season with a super-solid 1.50 ERA. Pelfrey has given up only 10 hits and 2 runs in 2 games.
The Phillies will counter with Adam Eaton. The Phillies had beaten the Mets in nine straight games before dropping the last two to them. Eaton will try to turn that mini-losing streak to their rivals around on Sunday. This will be the final game in a three-game weekend series between the Mets and Phillies. Eaton has been okay this season. He has pitched in three no-decisions so far with an ERA of 4.12.
