Its Tuesday, June 17 and the Mets (45-27) are in Atlanta to open a series against the Braves (31-39). David Peterson is slated to take the mound for New York against Spencer Schwellenbach for Atlanta. Tonight marks a rare occurrence in baseball. Both starters take the mound after pitching complete games in their last outing.

Tylor Megill and Griffin Canning turned in their two worst starts of the season in back-to-back days as the Mets got swept at home by the Rays. That those performances came on the heels of Kodai Senga's hamstring injury gave some people the ability to spew sky-is-falling fodder about the state of the Mets' rotation and how ominous things are.
