Keller held the White Sox hitless for 4 1/3 innings before giving up three runs on five hits in six innings last Friday. He struck out six and walked one, and despite being handed the loss, it was a step in the right direction for him after struggling to begin the season.

Peterson is coming off one of the worst starts of his career, in which he forced in three runs on a hit batsman and a pair of walks with the bases loaded last Friday vs. Arizona. He'll look to start fresh as the Mets open a nine-game road trip against Tampa Bay.

Glasnow has given up three runs with four walks and two homers in each of his last two starts, but he's still put together quality starts in five of his first eight outings. He's been a strikeout machine, whiffing 39.5 percent of the hitters he's faced.

Matz is still looking to recapture his April form, when he opened 4-0 with a 2.31 ERA. In his three starts since, he's pitched to a 9.22 ERA and been hurt by the long ball, but he feels he's close to making the right adjustments.

Benjamin will make just his second MLB start (and first this year) after being recalled from Triple-A Round Rock on Thursday.
