Mets at Padres:
Steve Trachsel (2-4, 3.48 ERA) has been pitching well all season but now faces a team that has had success against him in the past. Trachsel was 0-2 with a 18.47 ERA in two starts against San Diego last season. He was roughed up for 13 earned runs and 13 hits in just 6 1/3 innings in those outings. Trachsel is 5-6 with a 5.27 ERA in 13 career appearances against the Padres.
The Padres will counter with Jason Middlebrook, who was called up from triple A after Bobby Jones was placed on the DL. Middlebrook was 2-4 with a 5.13 ERA in seven starts with Class AAA Portland.
We?ll take the over in this one as both teams should put up at least 4 runs each.
Pick2Play: Mets/Padres over 8.5 (5 units)
Good Luck,
