There have been brighter days in Metville. Close to game time yesterday, the Mets announced that d’Arnaud would be heading to the DL and then the Mets lost a game 3-2 because they just couldn’t string hits together. Altogether, it feels like a different lifetime since the Mets were crushing it.
Bartolo Colon is 9-5 over 14.0 games and 86.0 innings with a 4.81 ERA. His first two starts in June were strong allowing 4 ER over 13.0 innings but he couldn’t repeat that in his latest start where he allowed 7 runs, 6 earned over 4.1 innings. He made a start against the Brewers this year and it wasn’t good as he allowed 6 runs, 5 earned over 5.0 innings. The Brewers have the following numbers against Colon:
- Lind 6-19, 2B, HR
- Gomez 2-9, 2B, 3B
- Ramirez 4-9, 2B, HR
- Gennett 0-4
- Segura 1-4
- Braun 1-3, HR
- Lucroy 2-3
- Parra 2-3, 2B, HR
The Mets bats will try to get something done against Jimmy Nelson. He’s 3-8 over 14 games and 83.1 innings with a 4.64 ERA. His June has been odd. In two starts he allowed 7 runs over 5.0 innings, had a shutout over 6.0 innings and allowed 3 ER over 5.0 innings. In one start against the Mets last year he allowed 2 ER over 7.0 innings. The Mets have the following numbers against Nelson:
- Duda 1-4, HR
- Lagares 0-3
- Granderson 1-3, 2B
- Tejada 0-2
Lets Go Mets!
