I mean, there are, believe it or not, some positive things to draw from this team.
Like you said, Noel McLean looks unbelievable.
The second coming of Jacob deGrom, no run support, but dealing every time.
Clay Holmes has looked really nice.
The pitching's there on the starting side.
The offense really is not.
And it is...
The lack of discipline that I think is pretty scary because for this offense to be the offense they can be, it's making pitchers work.
It's making pitchers earn every out.
It's passing the baton.
It's chipping away.
It's what we saw in the very first inning of their season against Paul Skeens.
They did it in that very first inning.
They showed what the offense looks like when they're at their best.
In L.A., they showed exactly why the offense is not working right now, especially with the ninth inning, I want to say, in game two.
Vessia comes in for the save, not Edwin Diaz.
The Mets draw seven whiffs in one inning.
He strikes out the side.
I think he only threw two pitches in the zone because they were just flailing with their backs against the wall.
It was very symbolic of what this season has been like so far for the Mets.
