The Atlanta Braves had a rocket start to their season, posting a 12-1 record. They have since been a pedestrian team, managing to play just two games over .500. The Mets have not played well all season as they enter at just 25-40 on the season. They have a new face on the mound in Zack Wheeler. Wheeler is a former first-round draft pick by San Francisco, and is ranked as the No. 11 top prospect in baseball. Paul Maholm made an early splash, not allowing a run in his first three starts, but things have not been so good since. The Braves have just a 5-6 record in his last 11 starts. The Mets have had road success vs. a lefthander at 4-1 in their last five. Take the Mets in Game Two.
