Gonzalez looking to get back on track (with lineups)

FLUSHING, N.Y. - This is kind of remarkable given where his season numbers lie at this point, but over his last nine starts, Gio Gonzalez has pitched to a 4.93 ERA. Over that time, he's given up 27 runs and 49 hits over 49 1/3 innings. The last time he threw, Gonzalez delivered his worst start as a member of the Nationals, going just 3 1/3 innings and allowing six earned runs. That start, ironically enough, came against the same Mets team he'll face tonight. He'll again oppose R.A. Dickey, who allowed three earned over 7 1/3 against the Nats last Thursday. The Nationals still haven't released their lineup for today's game, but here's the Mets' starting nine against Gonzalez: For the Nats: 2B Steve Lombardozzi RF Bryce Harper 3B Ryan Zimmerman LF Michael Morse 1B Adam LaRoche SS Danny Espinosa CF Roger Bernadina C Jesus Flores P Gio Gonzalez For the Mets: CF Andrew Torres 2B Daniel Murphy 3B David Wright RF Scott Hairston 1B Ike Davis LF Jason Bay SS Ronny Cedeno C Mike Nickeas P R.A. Dickey
