Chris Capuano, LH (10-12, 4.49)
|
| |
Derek Lowe, RH (9-14, 4.70 )
|
| |
Scouting Report:
METS: Capuano's defense betrayed him twice last Saturday against Chicago, leading to two runs (one earned) and preventing the lefty from winning for the first time in three starts. Capuano is 1-1 against the Nats this year, allowing four runs in each game.
BRAVES: Lowe struggled in his last start against the Phillies, allowing four runs in six innings. He's now 0-2 with a 7.36 ERA in his first two outings this month. He is 1-0 with a 3.75 ERA in his only two starts against the Mets this year.

|
R.A. Dickey, RH (8-12, 3.43)
|
| |
Tim Hudson, RH (14-10, 3.32)
|
| |
Scouting Report:
METS: Dickey hurled his 10th straight quality start Monday against Washington, but picked up his fourth loss during that span. He gave up two earned runs in seven innings and his seven strikeouts were the most he's had this year without allowing a walk.
BRAVES: Hudson took the loss in his last start against the Cards, which was highlighted by a five-run third inning. The righty has lost three of his past four starts and has a 5.55 ERA in that span. He's 1-3 with a 5.06 ERA against the Mets this year.

|
Dillon Gee, RH (12-6, 4.37)
|
| |
Brandon Beachy, RH (7-2, 3.43)
|
| |
Scouting Report:
METS: Gee threw five scoreless innings before giving up a pair of earned runs in the sixth that chased him from the game. He struck out five and walked two, and has given up more earned runs in the sixth inning this season, 21, than any other inning.
BRAVES: Beachy recorded his third career start with 10 or more strikeouts Monday against Florida, but took a no-decision, his third in a row and 14th this year. The righty, who hasn't lost since July 19, will make his first career start against the Mets.
