Probable Starters:
PIT- Martin Perez (1-0, 1.89) vs.
NYM- Adrian Houser (0-1. 5.40)

Martin Perez looks to continue his continue his impressive start with the Pirates against the Mets. He has been very good so far, and after a four game series the deeper he can go into the game the better it will be for the bullpen. The Pirates will be facing Adrain Houser for the Mets. Houser is looking to rebound after a poor outing versus the Braves last time out.

Derek Shelton goes with the relatively standard lineup versus RH pitchers. The only notable difference is Michael A. Taylor getting the day off for Connor Joe. Goal for this lineup will be Andrew McCutchen and Jack Suwinski building off of their respective games yesterday. If they can manage that it would go a long way for setting the tone for the series.
