The Big Pelf version of Mike Pelfrey appears to have returned, as he threw 8 shutout innings in the victory against the same Houston Astros that just won four straight against the Sillies down Philthydelphia earlier this week. While it was a nice win, the Mets still sit far down in the standings.

After enjoying an off day for the first time in two weeks, the Yankees will look to come out re-energized and focused as they kick off a three-game set in Chicago against the White Sox. Chicago (69-58) is only 3.5 games behind the first place Minnesota Twins. The Yanks took two of three earlier this year in the Bronx. Expect the ball to be flying out of US Cellular Field with two of the AL’s best power hitting teams.
