Series Preview: Mets vs. Phillies

Posted on May 6, 2009

Headline: The Mets are surprisingly "hot". Can they make a run for the top?

Rundown:
New York Mets :: 12-13 (3rd in NL East, 2.5 GB)
Philadelphia Phillies :: 14-10 (1st in NL East)

Probable Pitchers:
5/6 - Johan Santana (3-1, 1.10 ERA) vs. Chan Ho Park (0-1, 8.57 ERA)
5/7 - Mike Pelfrey (3-0, 6.00ERA) vs. Jamie Moyer (3-1, 5.65 ERA)

Matchup of the Series:
Anything with Johan Santana is the leader, so, Santana vs. Park.

Prediction:
Another short series, and I think the Mets are hot enough to pull away with another sweep. Mets win both games, big.
