Game Preview: Mets @ Phillies (Game 2)

The Mets and Phillies go to the National TV scene for the second game of this series as the Mets try to win this game after losing last night. The Amazin's send out Pelfrey who has been struggling as of late except for his last start where he made a statement and just had a really good game. On the season he is 10-10 with a 4.83 ERA over 158.1 innings pitched. In his last three games he is 1-2 over 17.2 innings where he allowed 12 ER, 11 BB and 11 K. Against the Phils this year he has pitched 4 games to the tune of a 3-0 reocrd over 24.1 IP with a 3.70 ERA. Here are some Phillies stats against Big Pelf:
    Howard 8-20, 4 BB, 2B, HR
    Utley 6-20, 2B, 3 HR
    Rollins 4-19, HR
    Werth 5-16
    Ruiz 1-11

The Mets bats will have to contend with Moyer who is 12-9, with a 4.98 ERA over 142.2 innings. Moyer is also the reason why  probably won't watch at least the beggining of the game. Everytime the Phillies play on some national broadcast, especially FOX, and Moyer is starting, the discussion starts with, and continues for about 30 minutes, about how old Moyer is and how he has reinvented himself, so and so forth, which would be fine normally, except they talk about this every time, and I am tired of hearing it. Anyway in his last three games he is 1-0 over 13.1 innings with a 2.70 ERA. Against the Mets this year he is 1-1 over 4 games over 20.1 innings and a 7.08 ERA. Here are some Mets stats against him:
     Beltran 14-61, 4 2B, HR
     Wright 19-44, 4 2B, 3 HR
     Castillo 7-23, 4 2B
     Francoeur 8-27, 2B
     Murphy 1-1, HR, 2 BB
Lets Go Mets! Beat the Phills!
