Reyes and Mets set to take on AL
June 13, 2008 11:20 am Jose Reyes Club News, Jose Reyes MatchupsJose Reyes and the New York Mets hope that interleague play will springboard their season leading in the upcoming all star break. Sitting at 3 games under .500, and 7.5 games out, the Mets need to start putting strings of wins together. This weekend, they will start their interleague slate with the Texas Rangers, at home.
Texas comes in with a 34-34 record, 17-18 on the road.
The pitching matchups for this series are as followed:
Friday: Scott Feldman 1-2, 4.31 v. Oliver Perez 4-4, 5.37
Saturday: Kason Gabbard 1-2, 4.75 v. Pedro Martinez 1-0, 6.91
Sunday: Kevin Millwood 4-3, 4.91 v. John Maine 6-4, 3.60
The matchups look to seem the Mets over the Rangers. Feldman and Gibbard are both young and inexperienced, but Millwood has lock down potential. Oliver Perez and John Maine have both shown more consistency, and with Pedro recently off the D.L, “ya never know”.. Mets should take atleast two of three.
Let’s take a look at how our guy Mr. Reyes has done against these pitchers in the past.
Reyes v. Feldman:
Jose Reyes has never faced Scott Feldman
Reyes v. Gabbard:
Jose Reyes has never faced Kason Gabbard
Reyes v. Millwood:
- 5-12
- .417 average
- 1 double
- 1 strikeout
- 1 walk
Good luck to the Mets! And Jose! Jose! Jose! Jose! Jose! Jose! JOSE!
