R.A. Dickey takes on his old team as the Braves face Noah Syndergaard and the Mets. Dickey allowed a .257/.325/.432 slash line so far this year, which is above the major league average. His ERA is low, however, due to allowing a batters to go just 2 for 15 with runners in scoring position. Syndergaard has yet to walk a batter or allow a home run in 26 innings while striking out 30.
The Nationals finish their series in Colorado as Gio Gonzalez takes on rookie Antonio Senzatela. Gonzalez is off to a great start in 2017, bringing a 1.35 ERA into the game. He appears to have re-weighted his pitch selections. He’s throwing more four-seam fastballs and fewer two-seam fastballs, and more curve balls. He is inducing more fly balls, but a smaller percentage are leaving the park as batters likely swing under the four-seamer. Senzatela is showing great control for a rookie, walking just four batters in 26 innings. Both home runs he allowed came at Coors, however.
Enjoy!
