Yesterday was frustrating. The Mets were down for the majority of the game, went ahead in the 7th, the Braves tied it with two outs in the 9th on a misplayed ball in the infield, the Braves pulled ahead in the 11th, the Mets got two on and no outs in the bottom of the 11th, then the Mets lost.
Dillon Gee is making a spot start today in the rotation. He’s 0-3 over 7 games, 6 starts and 36.0 innings with a 4.50 ERA. His start at the beginning of the month was rough as he allowed 8 hits, 7 runs, 4 earned over 4.0 innings. His relief outing was ok as he allowed 1 ER over 1.2 innings. His starts against the Braves couldn’t be more different. In the first one he allowed 5 ER over 5.0 innings, in the second one he allowed 2 ER over 7.0 innings. The Braves have the following numbers against Gee:
- Freeman 8-35, 2 2B, 2 HR
- Simmons 5-20, 2 2B
- C Johnson 3-15, 2B
