Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 5046850, member: 27"] The Mets lost to the Royals 11-7 today. Manaea was completely ineffective and unfortunately was left in long enough to give up 9 hits and 8 runs in 3 2/3 innings. Gotta manage starting pitchers better than that in the future. Alonso had 2 HRs today and as he often does, has gone from completely lost to red hot overnight. Consistency on a day to day basis is not his strength. But it is great to see him playing well. Marte had a good game and the Mets put up enough runs to get a win. But Manaea was really bad and the Mets brought in their bad relievers to finish things up and some of them also struggled. The good news is that the tier 1 relievers were not used and most should be available tomorrow. Butto gets the start and will be asked to stop this hot hitting Royals lineup. Bobby Witt Jr looks great and the Mets have struggled to get him out. Hopefully Butto has his best stuff and pitches well. [/QUOTE]
