last night's loss

The math is ugly. Dropping one by 12 last night stings. Making it worse, the -11 run differential tells a worse story than the record.

Mets News

Freddy Peralta's disastrous outing against the Phillies, resulting in a 15-3 loss, has left the Mets reeling and fans questioning the team's direction. With an inconsistent record of 34-41, the Mets are mired in mediocrity, sitting five games back in the division. Peralta, once seen as a potential ace, has become a liability, highlighted by his inability to control the game, currently holding a 3.90 ERA. The Mets will need a drastic turnaround tonight against Cristopher Sánchez, who boasts an impressive 1.82 ERA, if they hope to break a troubling pattern of underperformance. With 11 players on the injured list, the Mets walk a tightrope between hope and despair as they face pivotal matchups against division rivals. The urgency is palpable, it's time for the Amazin's to prove they have what it takes to contend.
