Mets starting pitcher Zack Wheeler is feeling the pressure to turn his season around after dropping to 1-4 and pushing his winless streak to seven starts following Sunday's 6-3 loss at Washington.
"It's been a bunch of bad starts in a row here," Wheeler said, per ESPN. "I need to hurry up and turn it around and get back on the right track.
"Obviously, guys are starting to figure me out a little bit and see what I have and stuff. I was thinking after I came out I might be a little bit predictable right now -- fastball in fastball counts and stuff like that. Maybe I'll start thinking a little bit more, but not too much obviously -- not trying to trick guys, but keeping them off-balance a little bit more."
