The Atlanta Braves will try to clinch a series win and wrap up a nine-game road trip on a good note when they take on the New York Mets again Thursday afternoon at Citi Field. Drew Smyly will be on the mound for Atlanta while the Mets will go with righty Taijuan Walker.
Brian Snitker will stick with the same group as Wednesday with the exception of catcher Stephen Vogt who gets the start behind the plate and will hit seventh. Guillermo Heredia drops to eighth in the order while Abraham Almonte gets the start in left for the sixth time in the past seven games.
