Jon Niese will pitch next Wednesday against the Braves

With the Mets down a starter and Niese pitching 6 innings and giving up no walks last night in the game against the Pirates the Mets have decided to let Jon Niese start against the Braves on Wednesday.

Niese threw 95 pitches and 67 of those were strikes which is a nice change from last September when he was having trouble locating the plate.

Now Tim Redding will get another start in the Minors before the Mets will make a decision on who to take on the west coast swing that starts after the Braves Series.
