"The starting pitchers are doing well, doing the most you could reasonably ask for, at any rate. None of them hasn't lasted less than five innings, which after 2025 translates experientially to going at least eight and handing the ball to John Franco on a daily basis."
"When closer Devin Williams has had something to close, he's shut it effectively. Brooks Raley gives up big hits only in strange dreams. Most of the bullpen has pitched capably in innings that don't begin with a phantom runner on second."
"There isn't just one elephant in the room. There have been 53 of them in scoring position since Saturday. Only six of them have scored. The Mets' RISP output Wednesday was 0-for-11."
The Mets are facing challenges with their performance, losing three of their last four games. While starting pitchers have been effective, the team struggles with scoring, having only converted six of 53 runners in scoring position since Saturday. Individual players like Luis Robert, Jr. and Mark Vientos show promise with high batting averages, but overall team performance feels disheartening. The bullpen has been competent, yet the lack of consistent wins overshadows these positives.
