DeGrom (5-7) struck out nine but was saddled with the loss as the Mets fell 2-1 to the Braves on Friday. He allowed two runs on six hits and one walk over eight innings.
It's become almost comical how little support the Mets have been able to provide deGrom in 2018. His numbers against the rest of the NL East sum up the club's lost season nicely: In 12 starts, he has a 1.82 ERA and 88:18 K:BB in 74.1 innings...and a 1-3 record to show for that brilliance. DeGrom will look for his first win since June 18, or at least his 15th straight quality start, in his next outing Wednesday at home against the Reds.
