Jeff Suppan is an average pitcher nothing more. Sure he pitched a gem in game 3, but in his game before remember he went only 4 innings before being yanked. Would I take him over Perez? Obviously, but keep in mind the Mets pitch to get into the bullpen. PErez numbers weren't great in game 4 but he did his job. He kept the game close and pitched long enough to give the bullpen a break, and let Brandford and Feliciano each pitch an inning and then be in the 9th.
The Mets are home and have a better offensive team. I just checked the line and the Mets are -121 currently, and Im not surprised.
