The Mets Fan Misery

I don't mean to be dramatic here, but yesterday night was Game 1 of the New York Met's first game of the 2021 Major League Baseball season.

It had already lost a bit of enthusiasm going into the game, because the weekend series against the Nationals to start the season were all postponed due to COVID issues.

So Game 1 now was against the Phillies who were already up on the division with 3 wins and 0 losses, but we had our best and who is considered one of the best if not the best starting pitcher in baseball.

Of course, DeGrom was pitching another outstanding game; because that's what he does:

So after 77 pitches, the manager takes DeGrom out of the game and brings in the bullpen and just like that 5 runs given up and we go on to lose another game when DeGrom pitches his face off!

It's a vicious cycle of wasted opportunities for what is sure to be a hall of famer, but the team continues to jeopardize his legacy; because his win and losses will be so misleading when it's all said and done.

The Mets have new ownership and they brought in some impactful players, so they have the opportunity to do some big things this season and the next few; but if we continue to ruin great pitching performances by Jacob DeGrom it will yet be something else to haunt this organization.

We have Marcus Stroman on the bump tonight and they can soften the blow of this crushing loss with a win today, so LET'S GO METS!!
