With a bevy of right-handers that the Orioles are throwing at the Mets this week, the lefties will get a lot of action. Thanks to another interleague series, Sheffield can rest his aching knee some more and try to rest it before the team faces National League teams again.
Mike Pelfrey takes the mound tonight, and the Mets will need the good Pelf. After the mind-boggling performance by Johan Santana on Sunday, Pelfrey needs to serve as the stopper.
