Phillies 5, Mets 4—Mets lose back-and-forth affair in Philly
Photo by Tim Nwachukwu/ Despite their best efforts, the Mets couldn’t overcome the Phillies. The Mets, after winning the series in Miami, headed to Philadelphia to face the Phillies, their division rivals and the current holders of the first Wild Card spot in the National League. While the Mets were on a bit of a roll, they also were pitting David Peterson against one of the most potent offenses in baseball in 2023. And the Phillies had Ranger Suárez pitching, who has been one of Philadelphia’s better pitchers for the past few years, and has always been pretty good...

Reds 5, Mets 3—Comeback spoiled on Roberto Clemente Day
Brad Penner-USA TODAY Sports David Peterson struck out a career-high ten batters and Pete Alonso hit a game-tying homer in the sixth, but the bullpen let the game get away. How many times have we seen this movie this season? The starting pitcher for the Mets puts forth a decent performance, the Mets come from behind, and the bullpen spoils the party. That’s what happened again tonight in the Mets’ 5-3 loss to the Reds at Citi Field on Roberto Clemente Day. David Peterson really only made one mistake all night, but it was enough to cost him a quality start, despite...

Twins 8, Mets 4—Bullpen falters again
Photo by Stephen Maturen/ David Peterson gave the Mets a quality start, but the bullpen let a close game get out of reach. The Mets fell to the Twins 8-4 in what was a well-pitched game by David Peterson with some strong defensive work behind him, but a disastrous game for the bullpen, who opened up a deficit too great for the Mets to overcome. The Mets got on the board first in this contest, thanks to a leadoff home run by Brandon Nimmo off Kenta Maeda—his 23rd of the season. Jeff McNeil then singled and with two outs, stole second base to advance into scoring...

Player Meter: Pitchers, August 28-September 3
Gregory Fisher-USA TODAY Sports A quick review of how the Mets’ pitchers fared over the past week. Five of the six games the Mets played in last week were decided by one run. This meant a lot of high leverage innings for the bullpen and sometimes they succeeded and other times they did not. As far as the starting rotation goes, Kodai Senga and José Quintana continue to be excellent week in and week out while the rest of the rotation is somewhat of a mixed bag. Tylor Megill had a strong week, but David Peterson took a step back from last week. Denyi Reyes had a solid...

Mets Morning News for September 3, 2023
Photo by Daniel Shirey/MLB Photos via Your Sunday morning dose of New York Mets and MLB news, notes, and links. Meet the Mets The offense did enough to win last night’s game against the Mariners, coming from behind on two different occasions. But the pitching did not in what was ultimately an 8-7 loss, as David Peterson had a poor outing and Grant Hartwig and Adam Ottavino each gave back the runs the Mets clawed back. Other notable happenings from the game include Mark Vientos leaving the game early due to injury and Francisco Lindor notching a 25-25 season with a...

Mets lose back-and-forth affair with Mariners 8-7
Photo by Dustin Satloff/ The Mets came from behind several times, but ultimately fell to Seattle. The Mets entered tonight coming off two straight wins against two very good AL West teams, and they played a tough game against the Mariners tonight. But they ultimately gave up too many big hits to Seattle and did not get quite enough big hits of their own tonight, and they ultimately fell to the Mariners 8-7 to tie the series at a game apiece. David Peterson started for the Mets coming off one of his strongest outings in recent memory in which he tossed seven innings of...
