Trevor Williams was hurt by the long ball in his start against the Rangers. He gave up five runs all coming off three blasts by the bottom of the Texas lineup. Tommy Hunter also gave up a home run and the Mets offense couldn’t recover despite hitting two blasts of their own. They will now look to Carlos Carrasco to take the series.
The Mets offense is clearly struggling right now so what pieces will the team look to add at the deadline?
With the division lead now shrunk to a slim margin, the Mets can’t afford to wait to get help.
