MLB *DOG OF THE DAY*
Play: New York Mets
Rating: 8*

The Arizona Diamondbacks swept a three-game set at Citi Field last week and outscored the New York Mets 17-5 in the series. I like the Mets to claim revenge at Chase Field Monday night.

Bartolo Colon (10-6, 3.35 ERA) takes the ball for New York. He tossed seven innings of one-run ball against the D'Backs his last time out, and he's lasted beyond six innings while allowing exactly one run in three of his last four turns. Colon is a solid 6-3 behind a 3.22 ERA in 12 appearances (111 starts) on the road this year and the Mets are 5-2 in Colon's last seven road starts.

The D'Backs turn to left-hander Robbie Ray (5-11, 4.57). He tossed seven scoreless innings of three-hit ball against the Mets at Citi Field his last turn, but he's 3-5 with a 5.40 ERA in 11 home starts on the season. We can note that Arizona is 2-7 in Ray's last nine starts overall.

Arizona is the worst home team in baseball at 19-39 this season, and the Mets are 7-2 in the last nine meetings in Arizona.
