The Mets have already lost (and only scored two runs) against the worst pitcher, by far, that they'll see in this series in Atlanta. Pedro goes against Smoltzy tonight, though Pedro's been shaky of late. This is one of those games where he's going to have to jack it up a few notches, lest the Mets' slim playoff hopes be whisked away by the Braves like so many times in the past.
