How to Watch, Probable Starters for Braves vs Mets Series

The Atlanta Brave s are set for a National League East bout this weekend when they head to Flushing, Queens to face the New York Mets.

Probable Starter for Series

Friday, June 12: Spencer Strider (4-1, 4.00 ERA) vs Nolan McLean (3-4, 3.98 ERA)
Saturday, June 13: Matín Pérez (4-3, 3.02 ERA) vs TBD
Sunday, June 14: Bryce Elder (5-3, 2.66 ERA) vs Freddy Peralta (4-5, 4.04 ERA)

Strider has allowed at least three runs in each of his last four starts. The home run has not been an issue the last couple of starts, but in his last, he had trouble missing bats. He notched just three strikeouts and he picked up zero whiffs on 20 fastballs thrown. He had six whiffs total on 43 swings from opposing hitters (14%).

Pérez was initially set to start the series finale in Chicago. However, the game was postponed due to weather. As a blessing in disguise, it provided the Braves' pitching staff with a day of rest, and Pérez is able to give the team innings against a division rival.

Elder has allowed three runs or fewer in all but two of his 14 starts this season. He's pitched to a 2.66 ERA so far this year with a 1.05 WHIP to go along with it.
