FLORIDA MARLINS +105 - I think that the wrong team may be favored in this contest! A.J. Burnett has one of the liveliest arms in the National League, as evidenced by his Major League leading 5 shutouts last season. He pitched very well in his first start vs. the Mets this year, although he received a No Decision, allowing only 2 runs and 5 hits in 7 innings. He was at his best when pitching in day games last year, posting a 2.42 ERA with a 0.94 ratio in his 7 starts under the sun. Trachsel is traditionally a slow starter, and the Mets are 0-3 in his starts so far this season. Going back to the 2000 season, Trachsel?s teams are now a terrible 5-14 in his last 19 April starts.
