Willie Randolph told reporters that Nelson Figueroa will start Thursday for the Mets. That means Johan Santana will start Friday.
That means Friday night is changeup vs. changeup; lefty vs. lefty; Phillies vs. Mets; Cole Hamels vs. Johan Santana.
Here’s how the Phillies/Mets series looks to shake out:
- Friday: Cole Hamels vs. Johan Santana
- Saturday: Jamie Moyer vs. Oliver Perez
- Sunday: Adam Eaton vs. Mike Pelfrey

Simply put, this is as exciting as a game can get this early in the season. I do not like getting overly dramatic about April games, but with the mediocre play as of late, this series can be a huge boost. If the work week was not long enough already, waiting for this game just made it that much worse.

thats a great matchup, but cbp isn’t a good park for santana to pitch in, he’s giving up too many bombs already.
should be a great weekend series. hopefully tickets arent sold out, would love to see my first game at cbp.

I cannot wait for the match-up. I am sure that Hamels wishes he had Santana’s salary ?? Well, he will get a chance to prove it on Friday . . . . Anyway, I will be at the game in the 2nd row right behind Burrell. I don’t expect too many homeruns until the Mets go to their bullpen, but a man can dream can’t he?? Go Phight’ns – Nothing better than the beast of the east games.
