Another great outing wasted. How many times has this guy lost 1-0 or 2-1. He’s now 2-2 this year with an ERA of 0.51. Also at what point do the Mets change hitting coaches or move on from Rojas? Too much talent to be below .500.
It's past the point of absurd at this point. Mets putting 3rd and 4th starters on other teams in the Hall of Fame right now. It seems they have no clue or gameplan on dealing with these pitchers.
Most of them look like they're trying to hit homeruns right now. Lindor, McNeil especially.
Staring at 2 strike fastballs in the zone, which happened way too often tonight, really irks me.
You have a whole lineup that seems to be pressing right now. And a fucking day off again tomorrow. FFS. I think I heard Ron or Keith say this is the last day off in awhile, though, so hopefully the weather doesn't spoil that.
Mets runs per game: 3.17; 29th in baseball, league average is 4.28
15 HRs, good for last in baseball (3 behind anyone else)... with a lineup that has 1 40 HR guy (Pete), 2 30 HR guys (Lindor/Conforto), and 3 20 HR guys (Dom, McNeil, JD)
Is there another example, in my lifetime (born in 1972) of a guy this supremely talented on the hill with so little support year after year? How do you have an ERA of HALF A RUN and go 2-2.
And I am not talking about a good pitcher with some hard luck. I'm talking about a dominant, best pitcher in the game guy who can barely scratch double digit wins because of his a anemic O and shaky pen every single year.
we should be used to this annual kick in the nards. With the exception of two magical seasons ('69 and '86), the Mets have found a way to crush their fans spirits. This year promised to be the perfect blend of superb pitching, adequate defense and excellent offense. I know it's early, but we've been here before haven't we...?

Only one pitcher since at least 1901 has struck out 50+ batters while allowing no more than 2 earned runs in their first five appearances of a season:

I asked Brett Baty, one of the Mets’ top prospects, how Matt Allan — the organization’s top pitching prospect — compares to some of the big-league pitchers Baty faced in camp.
No politics on BBI. It is already crazy enough with Draftmas tomorrow
Yeah - gee I wonder what your credentials and education are to match up with his?

Dude, you sell lousy hi-fi equipment at a mall, wear a nametag and brought a 15 year old to girl to a little league dugout to hook up. Weirdo.
Or Trump understanding what a 4 syllable word is.
The stats beg to differ:
Mets runs per game: 3.17; 29th in baseball, league average is 4.28
15 HRs, good for last in baseball (3 behind anyone else)... with a lineup that has 1 40 HR guy (Pete), 2 30 HR guys (Lindor/Conforto), and 3 20 HR guys (Dom, McNeil, JD)
Last in baseball in BA with RISP
Pete, Lindor, and Conforto should be on pace for something close to that themselves!

Felix Hernandez on Seattle.
1st in Innings Pitched
1st in ERA
2nd in Strikeouts
29th in Wins (27-21 record)
It's a shame how often the Mets are wasting his greatness over these last couple of seasons. He should have atleast another dozen wins.
Sox fans are glad for the wins, shocked by the pitching, scared about their hitting, and glad they escaped with at least 1 win.

Brett Baty on Matt Allan: "98 up in the zone but it plays like 102."
They're also roommates in Port St. Lucie right now. #Mets

“He’s not far off,” Baty said.
