I figured we would get this going early since I bet there will be a lot of articles and blogs about this series. Really looking forward to this one, as I'm sure we all are.

Pitching matchups:

Tonight at 6:10 - Maholm vs LH Jon Niese
Tomorrow at 3:05 - Medlen vs RH Jeremy Hefner
Sunday at 12:10 - Hanson vs RH Chris Young

Lineup:

Bourn CF
Johnson LF
Chipper 3B
Freeman 1B
Prado SS
Heyward RF
Uggla 2B
Ross C

Just some notes and articles:

Mets won't say. They're concerned fans won't react well, I'm told. It's hush-hush."@sportsandra: @ajcbraves Dave is mets tribute tonight?"

I still say the coolest thing they could do for him is to have all of their fans stand up and boo him for 30 seconds.

It would seem unnatural if they didn't

I put this in the last thread but it's worth repeating. NYC pub changes its name to Chipper's for the weekend.

Chipper's

I'ma be there on Sunday. I hope they save it till then. I really hope he plays Sunday, too, though I'm sure that's doubtful.

Who would've thunk it?

Dude has been money. Great move by the FO keeping Minor up instead of Delgado.

Updated OP with lineup.

Between 2013-2023 how many Cy Youngs do you think Medlen, Minor, and Beachy win between themselves? I say at least 10.

Simmons will likely play a rehab game tonight but will join the team either tomorrow or Sunday.
