Mets’ good vibes will end if David Stearns can’t fix this thorny issue
The atmosphere at Citi Field took a turn for the worse as the Mets lost their lead in a disappointing 9-6 defeat to the Astros. The downfall began in the eighth inning when pitchers Jake Diekman and Reed Garrett struggled with their control, resulting in four walks that led to runs. Manager Carlos Mendoza acknowledged the impact of the walks on the outcome of the game.
The Mets bullpen issues have been a recurring problem, with a high percentage of walks issued by the pitching staff. The absence of key players like Edwin Diaz has put pressure on the remaining relievers to step up. Despite some bright spots, such as Ty Adcock’s solid performance, the bullpen ultimately faltered in crucial moments.
The Mets are aware of the need to address the bullpen concerns before the trade deadline. While they may also consider adding starting pitching, the immediate focus is on strengthening the relief pitching. The team is exploring options within their farm system and keeping an eye on potential acquisitions to bolster the bullpen.
As the Mets aim to maintain their recent success and push for a playoff spot, addressing the bullpen issues will be a top priority. The team’s performance in critical situations will determine their chances of postseason contention. The pressure is on for the Mets front office to make the necessary moves to improve the bullpen and solidify their position in the playoff race.
