The visitors hand the ball to Williams Perez (6-6, 5.16 ERA) who struck out six in a victory over the Phillies on Friday. Perez has looked a bit better of late, but note that the rookie has struggled mightily in this spot all summer, going just 3-3 with a ballooned 4.71 ERA on the road thus far. The home side counters with Bartolo Colon (14-12, 4.15 ERA) who gave up three runs over 5 2/3's innings in a loss to the Fish on Wednesday. Colon has been as solid as the Mets could possibly ask for this year, but he's struggled in this spot all season, going just 8-11 with a pedestrian 4.15 ERA in all "night" games to date. For the most part MLB handicapping comes down to the starting pitching and with these two inconsistent hurlers facing off on Wednesday night, the OVER does indeed become a legitimate investment opportunity.
