Through the first twenty-three games of the Mets’ season, the back end of the team’s bullpen has been a constant. If the Mets have a lead late in a game, they’re going to three pitchers: Miguel Castro, Trevor May, and Edwin Díaz. All three have been very good, even if recent hiccups have inflated the ERAs of Castro and Díaz a bit.
The newest Met of the trio, May has thrown 9.1 innings with a 1.93 ERA and 0.75 FIP. He’s struck out 37.8 percent of opposing hitters, a rate that is slightly lower than the career high 39.
