Matt Harvey did a terrific job of throwing batting practice to the Marlins tonight, surrendering 12 hits in just four innings. In case the Marlins needed more work, Tommy Milone and Hansel Robles were there to take the baton, allowing another five hits and five runs in a brutal fifth inning that required four Mets [...]
The 2017 season has not been a good year for the Mets in any way shape or form.
