Johan vs. Cole

According to MLB.com, Phillies' ace/pretty boy Cole Hamels will be bumped up a spot in the rotation to face the Mets, and Johan Santana, Sunday night. He will be pitching on normal rest, as the Phils have Thursday off.

I say bring him on. It should be one of the pitching matchups of the year, and I am especially happy because I'll be in attendance. Check out Johan and Cole's stats on the year. They're pretty similar:

Johan: 196 IP, 2.71 ERA, 169 K, 51 BB, 1.15 WHIP, 152 ERA+, 12-7 W/L

Cole: 203 IP, 3.01 ERA, 174 K, 46 BB, 1.03 WHIP, 148 ERA+, 12-8 W/L
