In a year where the Mets’ pitching staff has been excellent, this may be the best week-long stretch they have put together this season. The Mets’ only loss this week was a 2-1 extra-inning loss in which the game-winning run that crossed the plate was the free runner in extra innings. The Mets’ bullpen did not give up an earned run this week. Let me repeat that. The Mets’ bullpen did not give up a single earned run this week. And no starting pitcher surrendered more than two earned runs in an outing. Over the weekend, the staff threw two shutouts.
