The Atlanta Braves are facing a pivotal thirteen-game stretch, including seven games against the New York Mets. This period could significantly impact their playoff contention. The first matchup features pitcher David Peterson from the Mets, who is having a career-best season with a 2.48 ERA. However, his past performance suggests a degree of luck, as highlighted by his expected ERA. Spencer Schwellenbach starts for the Braves, fresh off an impressive complete game. Both pitchers have notable strengths, indicating a potentially compelling pitching duel ahead.
Peterson has been fortunate with high strand rates, leaving 78.4 percent of runners on base last season and 79.2 percent this season.
Spencer Schwellenbach will be coming to the mound after coming off the best start of his career where he pitched a complete game allowing two runs while striking out nine.
