The two losses the Mets suffered at the hands of the Giants this week were the result of back-to-back meltdowns on the part of the pitching staff. But, it wasn’t all bad. Chris Bassitt made up for his poor start on Tuesday with a strong outing yesterday and David Peterson put forth a good outing in his return to the rotation. Taijuan Walker continues to pitch well and Colin Holderman has emerged as a surprise out of the bullpen. It seems likely that Thomas Szapucki’s poor start this week and Trevor Williams’ strong work in relief cemented Williams’ status as the fifth starter for now until Tylor Megill returns.
