We Can Pod It Out 133: Rocky Raccoon

It's been a rocky month for the Mets

The MLB-wide OPS in 2023 is .729. So far this month, there are only four Mets above that number: Tommy Pham (1.014), Mark Canha (.865), Brandon Nimmo (.764), and Starling Marte (.735). Meanwhile, there are only four Mets pitchers who have allowed a sub-.729 (sub-.800, in fact) OPS in June: John Curtiss (.286), Dominc Leone (.412), Jeff Brigham (.466), Kodai Senga (.655), and Brooks Raley (.686).

Those pitchers have accounted for 25% of the batters faced by the Mets’ staff in June. The hitters have accounted for 37% of the Mets’ plate appearances.

It’s not really a mystery why they’re 2-9 this month.
