I attended game 1 in person but watched games 2 and 3 on TV. Todd Frazier's 2-run homer coupled with excellent pitching was able to beat the Yankees 2-0 last night. It was the only time this season that the Bronx Bombers were shut out. This victory gives the Mets a small psychological boost, but what will happen during the rest of the season? Can they return to respectability after playing so poorly so far? They have been affected by several injuries and the hitting has just been poor.
There are some suggestions that the Mets should trade deGrom and/or Syndergaard for some hitting prospects. I wouldn't do that since minor league players often don't work out once they are promoted to the major leagues. They just made some roster moves by releasing Adrian Gonzalez and Jose Lobaton and promoting Dominc Smith and Ty Kelly. I really think that Jose Reyes should be let go as he has performed very poorly this season. Last night he made 2 errors on one play.
Time will tell.
