Mets vs. Cubs recap: Not even close
Matt Harvey and the Mets’ bullpen gave up a slew of runs in a game that became a blowout very quickly. If the Mets’ goal the rest of the way this season is to put the team in the best position possible in the 2018 amateur draft, it has undone some of the damage it did by winning two series last week rather quickly at Wrigley Field. Coming off a loss on Tuesday night, the Mets lost by a very wide margin on Wednesday in a game that was very briefly close. The Mets used six pitchers in the game, and all of them took part in allowing runs to score. Ironically, Hansel Robles was the only one...

Final Score: Mets 11, Phillies 7-Mets’ Labours Not Lost
The offense kicked it in gear against the Philadelphia. Rafael Montero started strong but faded late, and Hansel Robles and Paul Sewald struggled in their appearances, but none of it mattered in the 11-7 win.

Final Score: Astros 4, Mets 1—Enter Aoki
The Mets got a new outfielder and lost an infielder. The Mets dropped the second game of their doubleheader against the Houston Astros this evening by a score of 4-1.

That inning, Lugo did not record an out, but had four straight batters reach base against him. By the time he was relieved by Hansel Robles, two runs were in and two men with on. The next batter, Brian McCann grounded into a fielder’s choice and drove in a third run. A sacrifice fly from J.D....

Final score: Reds 14, Mets 4—Decidedly in the Red
The Mets were blown out in Cincinnati. In the first game of their three-game series in Cincinnati, the Mets were blown out by the Reds and lost 14-4. Although they scored a run in the top of the first, the Mets were pretty much out of the game by the time that inning ended. Chris Flexen served up a game-tying single in the bottom of that frame and followed that up by allowing a grand slam. The Reds never really looked back from there, and Flexen finished the night with seven runs allowed, four strikeouts, and four walks in four-and-two-thirds innings. That leaves him with a 6.89 ERA for the...
