1. Rough CarriganIf both the Mets and their opponents don't score much then it can be a park factor.
They're scoring 2.9 R/G, and the next worst in the NL is 3.5. They've scored 2.8 R/G at home and 3.0 on the road, so it's hard to blame it on the park.
They have a league-low .349 SLG. And they're batting .176 / .287 / .229 with RISP. Yes, that's right, they are slugging .229 with RISP.
while attendance was limited to 8,000, there are plenty of parks where it sounds like more.
but the Mets batters seem so terrified when deGrom pitches that it's palpable in the stands - and it leads to near-silence on the part of the crowd.
it just seems silly to get loud and pretend that we don't know what we know. a little bit hard to describe beyond that.
...............
and the Mets' broadcast just panned into the dugout, where you could see that one of the coaches was reading a BBTF thread.
and Mets get 4 runs in the first inning - with all 4 runs scoring from scoring position on two doubles and a single.
coincidence?
P.S. I’d still be interested in purchasing this site with a computer-literate partner as a turnaround project.
In 2018, the Mets averaged 4.2 rpg. Jacob's RS was 2.9. Noah was 4.7, Wheeler 4.3, and Matz 3.1.
I think deGrom has just been very uncharmed.
[5]. Wow. That’s remarkable given that this site gets about four comments a day now. Maybe one of the coaches is Walt or Dave?
You got me. I am secretly Chili Davis.
But seriously, if someone from BBTF is coaching the Mets, that would explain the team's hitting woes.
deGrom does have some power, he hit 2 homers in 65 AB in 2019. He might win a few games if he can pull off a Drysdale/Newcombe style 7-homer season. Swing for the seats Jake, you're going to have to do this yourself.
