Verlander gives up six runs in five innings and gets booed walking off the field. Mets and Phillies both lost yesterday too
Mets have just called up catcher Gary Sanchez, the Yankee castoff.
I have difficulty seeing Buck and Sanchez working out.
Phillies drop their fifth straight
Over the last few weeks they have lost six then won five and now lost five. Pitching has been bad. Nola not good this year. They may have lucked out not agreeing to a long term deal. Wheeler also has been off. Walker has been bad. Suarez just back. Trea has been bad. Fire Joe! They should bring him back to fire him again.
marsh bouyed them for a while but now he's playing like the man who fell to earth
Pitching is the issue. Their rotation has an ERA over 5
How the heck are the Marlins still 2 games over .500 with a -52 run differential that is the worst in the NL by a good margin. It surely can't be sustainable to keep winning 1 run games?
The Orioles did that one year but I think finished closer to neutral run differential. They made the playoffs and got eliminated. Winning one run games against mediocre and bad teams and getting blown out by good teams is not a recipe for success.
The Braves lost to the A's last night.
Tied for fourth. Be a trade deadline buyer Mike!
Losers of six straight, with a highly-paid and wildly underperforming roster whose record has dipped to 30-33, the Mets must now navigate the next 10 days, or perhaps longer, without one of the few stalwarts of their underachieving lineup. Alonso leads the major leagues with 22 homers and 49 RBIs.
