Mike Pelfrey has made three good starts in a row, though he ran into a bit of bad luck his last time out against the Phillies.
Jair Jurrgens has been very solid for the Braves through four starts. He was acquired this past offseason in the deal that sent Edgar Renteria to the Tigers. Renteria was made expendable by the emergence of Yunel Escobar.
Brian Schneider is in the hospital with a staph infection and Carlos Delgado is being given the night off in favor of Marlon Anderson. Here is the Mets' starting lineup:
Reyes SS
Castillo 2B
Wright 3B
Beltran CF
Church RF
Pagan LF
Anderson 1B
Casanova C
Pelfrey P
Not exactly the powerhouse many of us envisioned in March. Well, there's always this guy.
