Peav goes tonight against the Bravos. Glancing quickly at baseball-reference.com I note that Jake hasn't had extreme success against the Bravos. In six starts he sports a 1-4 record and a 4.70 ERA over 38.1 innings. Though he has 52 Ks over those 38.1 innings, he has also ceded 10 bombs to Bravos hitters. The good news is that 3 of those losses happened during Peav's down year in '06 and 5 of those 10 bombs came in 2 starts against the Bravos during Peav's first full season in '03. The Bravos did not face Jake last year during his Cy Young season.
My point?
Atlanta has rarely seen Jake at his finest.
If I were the Braves' hitters I would be afraid. Very afraid.
