Well, not too many positives in this series, so lets get right into it.
Starters
| Name | Stats | Grade |
|---|---|---|
| Chris Young |
W, 5.1 IP, 5 H, 1 R, 4 BB, 7 K | A- |
| Mike Pelfrey |
ND, 2+ IP, 8 H, 7 R, 1 BB, 1 K | F |
| Jon Niese |
L, 4.1 IP, 8 H, 6 R, 1 BB, 7 K | F |
| Mets Starters | 1-1, 9.2 IP, 21 H, 14 R, 6 BB, 15K | D |
The Mets starting, other than Young, failed to impress me this weekend. They had a lot that needed to be done, and faltered. Pelfrey is lucky he got taken off the hook, but Niese wasn't as lucky. Overall, the starters get a D.
Key Hitters
| Name | Stats | Grade |
|---|---|---|
| Jose Reyes | 6-14, 2 R, 2 SB | A |
| David Wright | 7-14, 3 R, 3 RBI, 1 SB | A |
| Carlos Beltran | 1-7, 2 R, 1 RBI | F |
| Ike Davis | 4-12, 1 R, 3 RBI | B |
| Angel Pagan | 3-11, 3 R, 2 RBI, 2 SB | C+ |
| Team Batting (from above only) | 21-58, 11 R, 9 RBI, 5 SB | B |
The offense, except the final game, caught me off guard this series. The Mets showed were very aggressive. More aggressive than I have seen in a while. The grade for the Key Batters is a B.
Bullpen (minimum of 2 IP)
| Name | Stats | Grade |
|---|---|---|
| Tim Brydak | 2.0 IP, 2 H, 2 R, 2 K | C+ |
| D.J. Carrasco | 2.2 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 1 K | B+ |
| Pedro Beato | 3.0 IP, 3 H, 2 R | B |
| Team Bullpen (from above only) | 7.2 IP, 9 H, 5 R, 3 K | B |
The bullpen had its good moments and its bad moments. Overall, it was worthy of a B.
