Rockies at Mets
(MLB) Rockies (COL) vs. Mets (NYM),
Point Spread: -1.50 | 100.00 Mets (NYM) (Home)
Result: Loss
As noted earlier, had you gone on a worldwide cruise six weeks ago, and unable to access MLB scores and standings, and returned to port this morning to pick up the newspaper and find out that the Mets are in an NL wild card slot, you would have maybe thought you had awakened in an alternative universe. The beat goes on for NY, which won again on Saturday vs. the Rocks, making it five straight and 25 of 35. Worse news for Colorado is that it must face Jose Quintana this afternoon at Citi Field after he hasn't allowed a run in his last two starts. We're also not sure it matters who starts for the 33-63 Rocks, so Bud Black might as well hand the ball to German Marquez, who hasn't pitched since April 26 of last year after undergoing Tommy John surgery.
