The Mets and Giants continue their series tonight as the ace of the staff takes the mound for the Mets. Jacob deGrom is 5-7 over 19 starts and 115.0 innings with a 3.21 ERA, 3.13 FIP, 1.122 WHIP and 127 ERA+. By peripheral stats, his season is becoming better than his 2017 season where he posted a 3.50 FIP, 1.187 WHIP and 117 ERA+. Anyway, he’s coming off a short outing where he only pitched 5.0 innings but also allowed only 1 runs from 6 hits and 3 walks (and shockingly the bullpen and bats behind him supported him through the end of the game). He missed the Giants earlier in June and last year he allowed 2 runs, 1 earned over 6.0 innings while striking out 10. The Giants have the following stats against him:
- Brandon Belt 3-16, HR, 5 BB, 5 K
- Joe Panik 3-17, 2B, 2 BB, 5 K
- Brandon Crawford 4-17, 7 K
- Buster Posey 4-14, 2B, HR, BB, K
- Evan Longoria 1-5, B, 2 K
- Pablo Sandoval 2-6, 2 2B, 2 K
The Mets bats will get a look at Tyler Beede who is 3-3 over 11 games and 9 starts over 51.1 innings with a 5.44 ERA, 5.30 FIP, 1.578 WHIP and 78 ERA+. He’s coming off an average start where he allowed 3 runs from 7 hits and no walks over 6.2 innings and over his last 5 starts he has posted a much more respectable 3.41 ERA. He faced the Mets back in June allowing 6 runs, 5 earned over 5.0 innings from 5 hits and 4 walks. The Mets have the following numbers against him:
- Pete Alonso 0-1, BB
- Michael Conforto 1-2, HR, K
- Todd Frazier 0-2, BB, 2 K
- Jeff McNeil 2-3, 2B
- Wilson Ramos 0-1, 2 BB
- Amed Rosario 1-3, HR
- Robinson Cano 0-2
Let’s Go Mets!
