Jae Seo pitched 7 1/3 innings today and combined with three relievers on a shutout of the Brewers.
Dae Sung Koo and Roberto Hernandez combined to get out of the eighth, and Braden Looper pitched the ninth for his 23rd save. This doesn't prove that Seo belonged in the rotation over Kaz Ishii all along, but that probably is the case. He's 3-1 with a 1.42 ERA in his four starts for the Mets this season. With Steve Trachsel likely to return soon, Seo might find himself pitching in middle relief despite his success
