Why the Mets’ Rising Star Could Be Baseball’s Next Big Payday Surprise

There was a lot of talk this season about how the Mets would be one of the best teams in the National League. After a major turnaround about halfway through the season last year, the Mets made it all the way to the World Series. If you followed the Mets over the past few years, this has been a wild ride. The team has been all over the map in terms of investing in the team, then trading away pieces, and retooling. Eventually, they figured it out and they made it last year all the way to the NLCS. I’d be very surprised if they don’t have a say in the playoff conversation this season. I have been skeptical of their pitching staff, but they’ve found a way to have success for a year or more now. Clay Holmes has been one of the better starters for the squad this season with an 8-4 record and a 2.99 ERA with a 1.24 WHIP. He has been slightly better on the road this season, but the biggest difference is that he has allowed only a quarter of his homers on the road. Although he hasn’t allowed many runs in the past four games, he hasn’t made it more than five innings (5.1 in one) in the starts. Overall, Homles is 10-for-47 against him in his career, with no homers allowed.
