Pelfrey, Arroyo each seek to end woes

May 10, 2008 - 2:29 PM Cincinnati at NY Mets 7:30 pm EDT

FLUSHING, New York (Ticker) -- Mike Pelfrey may have used an extra day off to try and figure out what he has been doing wrong.

Mike Pelfrey takes the hill on Saturday looking to snap out of a slump as the New York Mets and Cincinnati Reds wrap up a day-night doubleheader.

Pelfrey (2-2, 5.27 ERA) was scheduled to start Friday's opener, but it was postponed due to heavy rains.

The extra day may have been beneficial to Pelfrey, who has struggled mightily since starting the season with a pair of wins.

The 24-year-old Pelfrey has allowed 14 runs and 28 hits in his last 15 1/3 innings. Last Saturday, he was rocked for five runs and nine hits in five innings of a 10-4 loss to Arizona.

Bronson Arroyo (1-4, 8.63) can certainly relate to what Pelfrey is going through. Arroyo gave up seven runs and seven hits in 1 1/3 innings of a 14-7 loss to Atlanta on Sunday - the shortest outing of his career.

Arroyo has thrown six innings just once in seven starts this season.
