The New York Mets looked the part of a team in the midst of a lost season earlier this week in Kansas City, as they were swept by a combined score of 18-8. They will now look to bounce back with David Peterson (5.92 ERA, 62 and 1/3 IP) taking on the AL East-leading Baltimore Orioles.

Dean Kremer will start for Baltimore, which took three of four this week in Toronto to extend its lead atop the division. Kremer has pitched to an ERA of 4.96 this season, including a mark of 3.45 in July.


While the Mets' recent run has no doubt been pathetic, it's important to note in terms of handicapping not to overrate ideas regarding motivation of pro athletes.
