The Mets end their four game set with the Braves tonight as they still look to avoid the sweep. Johan Santana will take the mound for the Amazins who need some positive starting pitching (and some offense, but whatever). In his last outing he pitched 7 innings while allowing 4 ER in an losing effort. He is 1-1 this year against the Braves in three games with 21.0 innings logged and a 2.57 ERA. The Braves have these numbers against the ATL:
Diaz 16-30, 3 2B, HR
McCann 7-27, 2B, 2 HR
Prado 3-18, 2B
Lee 3-9, 2B, HR
The Mets have to deal with Timmy Hudson tonight who is 15-5 this year with a sparkling 2.24 ERA. He is coming off of a great start where he allowed only one earned run over 7 innings of work. He is 2-0 against the Mets this year over 13.0 innings pitched with a 0.69 ERA. The Mets have these numbers against Tim:
Wright 10-49, HR
Davis 1-4
Santana 0-5
Lets Go Mets!
