Braves' Ryan Weber: Goes five innings in second start
Weber allowed three runs over five innings on four hits, two walks and three strikeouts in a start against the Mets on Wednesday.
Analysis:
It was Weber's second start of the season and was an improvement over his first start where he lasted just three innings. He stumbled out of the gate as the Mets led off the game with a walk and a two-run homer, but settled down from there. Following the homer, Weber allowed just three hits and needed only 75 pitches to get through five innings. Weber has had an up-and-down year in a long relief role for the Braves, posting a 5.45 ERA. It's unclear whether or not he'll get another start, but he's a risky play considering he's thrown no quality starts this year.
