Padres @ Mets - Series Pitching Matchups

The Mets look to continue their winning ways at home, as they open up a 3 game series with the San Diego Padres, starting tonight at Citi Field. Below is a preview of the pitching matchups for this series:

Tuesday: RHP Mike Pelfrey (8-1, 2.39 era) vs. LHP Clayton Richard (4-3, 2.87 era), 7:10 p.m. ET

Wednesday: LHP Johan Santana (4-2, 2.76 era) vs. RHP Mat Latos (5-4, 3.26 era), 7:10 p.m. ET

Thursday: RHP R.A. Dickey (3-0, 3.20 era ) vs. RHP Jon Garland (6-3, 2.68 era), 1:10 p.m. ET

This looks to be a series that will be decided by pitching. The highest ERA in the 6 pitchers is 3.26. With the way the Mets are playing at home, and the fact that they have their #1 and #2 pitchers scheduled to start, I'll go with the Mets taking 2 of 3.
