Mets 61% - Tom Glavine seemed to be Ok on his return from the DL, even though he had a rough first outing. He should have a typical start for him and keep the Mets in the game until the bullpen comes in. Brad Penny has been having real troubles lately on the road against significantly inferior lineups to what he will face here aginst the Mets. Glavine's experience, Penny's shakiness, and the Mets' deep bullpen and stacked lineup combined to give them value as a small home favorite.
White Sox 63% - Mark Buehrle seems to be finally settling down, and if he can have another 6 or 7 inning, 2 or 3 run outing, which is likely, the White Sox will have a major edge in this game. The White Sox bullpen is deep and rested, and they have the firepower to get to Cleveland starter Cliff Lee. After underachieving on their recent road trip, the White Sox will be primed for a home winning streak, while Cleveland's road trip slogs on. Cleveland they do not have the bullpen or lineup depth to force a win if the other team doesn't give them an advantage. Unless Buehrle has another meltdown, which is possible but unlikely, the White Sox should control this game throughout.
