It has been a disappointing season for these two teams. The Miami Marlins stacked their payroll with the opening of their new stadium, but really faltered and never found any team chemistry. If this under-achieving group couldn't get it done when they needed to, I can hardly imagine much effort here in their finale. Tom Koehler will make his first career start, but his record in the pen shows an unimpressive 5.40 ERA in limited duties. The Mets go with a disappointing rookie of their own in Jeremy Hefner with a 5.32 ERA of his own. But Hefner is off a confidence-boosting 7 inning, 0 run stint in his last outing. The Mets are 13-5 in their last 18 vs. a losing team, while the Marlins are 4-12 in their last 16 vs. a losing team. Play on the Mets.
