The New York Mets really struggled this afternoon against the Astros. The Mets didn’t get the best performance out of Chris Schwinden today and he really struggled through his four innings of work. Schwinden gave up 5 earned runs and all the runs came on two homeruns to Chris Johnson. Schwinden really didn’t have any of his best pitches today and so far this season has really struggled in his opportunities. Schwinden fell behind on many of the hitters and that led to a struggle to get outs. The Mets will make a decision on Schwinden this weekend regarding his next start.
Manny Acosta really struggled in his two innings of work as he allowed 3 runs on 6 hits. Acosta couldn’t command his fastball and that led to easy hits for the Astros. Acosta hasn’t done well in his last couple of outings and he is really hurting the team right now. Acosta has to get back to commanding his fastball and work from their.
The only run for the Mets came on an Andres Torres RBI single in the 4th inning. This was a game where the Mets had nothing working for them and now will have to travel back home, hoping to get back on track. The Mets get swept by the Astros as they lose the final game 8-1.
