Scouting Report
Mets: Jorge Sosa was originally slated to start this one, but he was used in relief against the Brewers on Tuesday night. Lawrence, who the Mets signed to a Minor League contract on May 9, gets the nod instead. The 31-year-old was 8-2 with a 3.87 ERA in 12 starts (79 innings) for Triple-A New Orleans and is seemingly recovered from the shoulder surgery he underwent in March 2006.
Brewers: The Brewers have lost each of Capuano's last 12 starts but he has been pitching better of late. Two walks loomed large in a three-run Cardinals first inning in Capuano's most recent start, when he was charged with four runs in 6 1/3 innings. But he has a 2.95 ERA over his last three starts (seven earned runs in 21 1/3 innings). Capuano has yet to beat the Phillies in four career games against them.
