Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 5191998, member: 27"] Quintana has been terrific down the stretch and it seems like the Phillies are struggling more against lefties than righties right now, so hopefully the veteran comes up big tonight. If the Mets lose tonight, there is an off day and then The Phillies will start Wheeler, who is by far their best starter. And we are scheduled to start Senga. Senga is terrific but with all the down time he has had, this is not the matchup you want in a win or go home scenario. The game today is a home game. A game on Friday would be on the road. I think the Mets really need to win this game. It will be a much tougher job to beat Wheeler than Ranger Suárez. Suárez has an ERA over 5.00 for his last 15 starts and it is 5.74 in his last 5. And he is a lefty. Pretty sure the Mets have been doing well against lefties down the stretch. [/QUOTE]
