The Mets were so close and so far again last night in their 3-2 loss against the Marlins. The Mets were able to get hits, but just couldn’t get the runs across the plate. Anyway the Met made it close, got runners on base, and maybe today they can take it to the next level against Koehler tonight as he takes on deGrom.
Jacob deGrom is 0-4 this season with 7 starts and a 4.39 ERA over 41.0 innings. June has been an ugly month for deGrom. In 15.0 innings of work he has allowed 13 ER and 9 strikeouts. Today he makes his first of many starts against the Marlins. Obviously there are no relevant battery notes to make.
Koehler is 5-5 over 14 starts with 84.1 innings logged while posting a 3.84 ERA. In his last two starts he has logged 11.1 innings while allowing 9 ER, so also hasn’t been that strong as late. He has had two very different starts against the Mets, the first where he allowed 4 ER over 5.0 innings, the second where he shut the Mets down for 8 innings. The Mets have the following numbers against Tom:
- Murphy 5-16, HR
- Wright 4-14, 3 2B
- Duda 2-12, 2B
- Tejada 3-13, 2B
- Recker 0-8
- E Young 1-9, 2B
- Granderson 0-4
- C Young 1-5, HR
Lets Go Mets!
