Stats: Late Game Frustration
The Mets have made 115 pitching changes this season, second most in the major leagues behind the Braves, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.
…it’s a telling stat, because, in addition, they have also thrown the second fewest innings of any bullpen…which means, Willie Randolph is essentially going wild with the one-and-done scenario…use a guy, then use another guy, then use another guy…etc…
Also according to Elias, the Mets have been outscored by 28 runs during the seventh and eighth innings, tying them with the Padres for the worst run differential in those innings in the majors.
…basically, given the above two bits of info, if you’re a Mets fan, you hate the last few innings of baseball right now…
