MVMet: ∂eGrom and Colon were both very impressive against Seattle, but I’ll give the hat tip to Colon’s perfect game bid.

LVMet: Lagares bat went quiet in CF while Matt ∂en Dekker had another great series for the 51s in nearby Tacoma. I’m a huge Juan fan and think he’ll be fine, but M∂D might be forcing himself somewhere into the OF rotation – though that reflects on more than just Lagares.

*Scoring change gave Murph an extra hit and an extra RBI

Bullpen:

            The bullpen combination of Jeurys Familia and Jenrry Mejia is very exciting, they could be in charge of the 8^th/9^th innings for a long time. That’s a 1.59 ERA for the group if you’re interested, as only Daisuke allowed a run to score.

            5.2 IP, 5 H, R, BB, 6 SO, 6 GO: 2 FO, 1 IR – 0 S

Looking Ahead:

The Mets finish this long road trip with four in Milwaukee before coming home for three against the Phillies.
