Pitcher Ponage

(by Brett Kahn)

Another series, another edition of the world renoun Pitcher Ponage. The Mets are going into their first series against the Washington Nationals and will be facing Odalis Perez in game one. Perez is 0-2 with a 4.91 ERA in two starts so far this season. His best season as a pro came in 2002 with the Dodgers when he went 15-10 with 3.00 ERA and 155 strikeouts. Injuries have worn Perez down as he hasn't had a full season since 2004.

The Met who fairs the best against Perez is...

Louis Castillo.

In 22 career AB's against Perez, He has nine hits. (.409) He also has a home run and two RBI's to go along with that stellar batting average. He has yet to really find his stroke this season but he did look better going 2-for-4 yesterday against the Brewers.
