With the Mets playing 2 games today thus thursday look for Johan Santana to pitch the 1-pm game against righty Mat Latos who has a 5-4 record and a ERA of just 3.26
Santana has been pitching lights out of late but is getting no run support. After that debacle in Philly the Mets ace has lowered his ERA down to 2.76. He has a ERA under 1.00 in his last 4 starts. He has been plagued with no decisions since the Mets are not one to pile on runs when he is pitching. So far he just has a 4-2 record.
Look for Lefty Niese in the nightcap against Jon Garland. Garland was one of the free agents the Mets might have been interested before the season. He has fit into the Padres pitching mold of being stingy on giving up runs pretty well. He has a 6-3 record with a ERA of under 3.00. Barajas and Frenchy are hitting over .300 against the righty.
