The Mets went 3-4 in their last seven games before the All-Star break, and they scored 41 runs over that span. That's 5.85 runs per game, the type of week they put up a couple of times in early April. This week's meter covers those seven games, which ran from July 8 through July 14.
Player | Last Week | This Week | Comment |
---|---|---|---|
Andrew Brown, 1B/OF | Brown didn't play much and went just .125/.125/.125. Oh well. | ||
John Buck, C | John Buck was fantastic in April. Then he wasn't so fantastic. Now splitting time behind the plate more evenly with Anthony Recker, he's put together back-to-back good weeks as a hitter. | ||
Marlon Byrd, RF | Byrd just keeps hitting, this time putting together a .321/.367/.643 line with a pair of home runs. | ||
Ike Davis, 1B | I'm not sure which number is more discouraging, the .190 OBP or .105 SLG. | ||
Lucas Duda, OF | Duda, where's my left fielder? | ||
Juan Lagares, OF | He drew no walks and had no extra-base hits, but he hit .333. That's not terrible. | ||
Daniel Murphy, 2B | It was another very bad week at the plate for Murphy, who now has a .303 wOBA for the season. He's been ice cold for a long time. | ||
Kirk Nieuwenhuis, OF | Although he hit a home run and a double, Kirk didn't do a ton else at the plate. | ||
Omar Quintanilla, SS | Having played every day for a while now, Quintanilla might benefit from the four-day All-Star break. | ||
Anthony Recker, C | With a home run to his credit, Recker helped make up for a bunch of the outs he made. | ||
Josh Satin, 1B | In 10 plate apperances, Satin drew 4 walks. He had a hit, too, giving him a .500 OBP for the week. No fireball here, though, as he had no extra-base hits. | ||
Justin Turner, IF | Still working on coming back, Turner might rejoin the team sooner than later. | ||
Jordany Valdespin, 2B/OF | There a minor league demotions, and then there are minor league demotions. | ||
David Wright, 3B | In the midst of one of his best seasons in the big leagues, Wright had another good week. He's very, very rarely had even a mediocre week this year. | ||
Eric Young Jr. | He got on base at a .438 clip in 32 plate appearances and has been pretty good since joining the Mets. Perhaps the Mets have found something here. |
