Marlins 10, Mets 3

I'm not happy and of course most Mets fans are not happy. What we all have to remember is that it is early and there is still a lot of baseball to be played. That being said, there is so much frustration in the eyes of Mets fans because expectations were so high. We are just six games into the season and only one game off the pace of where the Mets were last year.

Steven Matz was tagged with the loss last night. His first regular season loss of his career. It was going to happen a some point.

After the Marlins put up seven in the Top of the second, the game was pretty much over. It was 8-0 before the Mets got on the board with a three spot in the fourth. New York rallied in the fifth but couldn't squeeze across a run.

The big blow came in the second inning when Christian Yelich singled home two runs with two outs to make the game 5-0. At 3-0, it was very easy to imagine that the Mets would climb back in the game. However, 5-0 was much too hard to hard to overcome. 

It's too early to panic, but with DeGrom not starting on Wednesday, tonight's game would be a good game to get. Last year, the Mets had their third loss at home on May 3rd and more importantly, didn't lose three straight at home until July 2nd. They never lost four in a row all of last year. 


Today is a new day. The best part of today is that Noah Syndergaard is pitching
