The New York Mets head into 10 straight games against NL East rival Atlanta and Philadelphia after getting swept in a series for the first time this season.

NEW YORK - The Tampa Bay Rays scored six runs in the top of the sixth inning to spoil a solid outing from Clay Holmes and beat the New York Mets 7-5 at Citi Fie

The Houston Astros traded right-hander Forrest Whitley to the Tampa Bay Rays after designating him for assignment last weekend, the team announced Friday, ending his tenure in the organization. Houston received cash considerations in the deal for the former top pitching prospect.

The Rays closed out a 5-1 homestand with Sunday's 3-2 victory. All of this helped Tampa Bay stay strong in the latest MLB Power Rankings, sitting in the No. 14 spot and moving up two from last week's location, according to MLB.com.

Simpson, who was with the Rays earlier this season, just did something at Triple-A Durham that has only been matched by former Rookie of the Year Corbin Carroll.

New York Mets manager Carlos Mendoza and right-hander Griffin Canning discuss the starting pitcher's performance in Sunday's 9-0 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays.
