Inside MLB’s Shocking Collapse: Why the Mets’ Season Is Spiraling Into Chaos
Biggest surprise (3rd place): Pittsburgh Pirates
OK, raise your hand if you thought that Pirates starters Carmen Mlodzinski (1.77 ERA), Braxton Ashcraft (2.12 ERA), Mitch Keller (2.86 ERA) and Bubba Chandler (3.86 ERA) would be pitching like this, with their defending Cy Young winner Paul Skenes (4.00 ERA) bringing up the rear.
They are tied for first place with the Cincinnati Reds in the NL Central with an 11-7 record.
Yes, for the first time in a decade, they really may be for real.
Biggest disappointment (4th place): Houston Astros
The Astros kept insisting all spring their pitching would be fine, believing that even with the departure of Framber Valdez, the free-agent signing of Tatsuya Imai would certainly be a big help.
