OK, the Nats are throwing Mike Bacsik and he is nothing much but still, this guy Philip Humber is making his 1st MLB start. He was a 1st round pick, but as bad as the Mets have been lately, plus Bacsik just beat the Mets in NY in late July so that is a pretty steep price to pay
Humber went 11-9 with a 4.27 ERA and 120 strikeouts in 139 innings over 25 starts for Triple-A New Orleans this season. He was recalled by New York on Sept. 1, and has allowed one run and three hits over three innings in two relief appearances.
