The Mets were handed a few ugly, lopsided losses this week in which the pitching staff did not cover itself in glory. Chris Bassitt in particular among the starters continues to struggle of late and the bullpen had a few nightmarish performances to boot. The bullpen also lost Colin Holderman, who had been pitching so well, to a shoulder impingement, which hopefully won’t result in a prolonged absence. However, it isn’t all bad this week. Both Taijuan Walker and Carlos Carrasco had one mediocre performance offset by an excellent one. This week also saw the return of Tylor Megill from the injured list.
