00:00They ain't broke, don't fix here for the New York Mets.

00:01Get down a couple runs here, storm back against the Philadelphia Phillies.

00:04The Phillies don't do anything against the bullpen for two straight days.

00:07I can digress.

00:08We can keep going on that, but we don't have to.

00:09It's Luzardo on the mound.

00:10Today's the lefty going up against Sean Minaya, the lefty.

00:13903, 904, 710 start at Citi Field.

00:16Roughly pick them, Joe, across the board, depending on where you're shopping at.

00:19An eight overnight.

00:20Some eight and a half are now in the betting landscape as well.

00:22Do we see nine runs?

00:24Luzardo's been good.

00:25Minaya hasn't been that great.

00:26But the Philadelphia Phillies really had a chance to put that fork yesterday in the

00:30Mets, and they weren't able to do so.

00:32Can they beat the Mets tonight?

00:33It's a pick them.

00:35Yeah, it would be all Phillies for me, as long as Luzardo isn't somehow tipping his pitches

00:40again.

00:41But if he's not, the Mets struggle against lefties.

00:46Sanchez was a little wild last night, but I think Luzardo certainly should have some success

00:51here.

00:52Not to mention, I believe, Donny Strayham, Al Duren, Kirkering, all the leverage guys in

00:59the bullpen for the Phillies will be available here tonight.

01:03So I think this is an opportunity for them to bounce back against Minaya, who really can't

01:08go more than five innings.

01:10And that means that bullpen of the Mets will have to get involved.

01:13I like Philadelphia to bounce back on this one.
