@JoeOrrico99 McLean has 31 more innings pitched and another three, maybe even four, starts left. He’ll finish with around 180 innings. Strider didn’t even qualify for the ERA title as well as WHIP and strikeout percentage in his rookie season.
@GoatMcLean_@TJStats If he was on another team other than the Mets. This ranking is a joke. Stewart should be the front runner but McLean and Benge are way ahead of Wetherholt.
@rationalyankee Baseball fandom is passed down through generations. Mets fans are descendants of Dodgers and Giants fans, and the Mets brought National League baseball back to New York. The Yankees could win another 27 rings, but the Mets will always be the heartbeat of the city.
@OKCPresto@WeathersWins Are you sure about that?
Since 7/26 when Jones was last recalled.
Benge 123 AB, .325 BA, .381 OBP, .488 Slug, 25 strikeouts .
Jones 95 AB, .232 BA, .311 OBP, .463 Slug, 39 Strikeouts.
@ROOMWAGE@DaveStackhouse@WFAN660@PicoDe_Gallo@CMacWFAN If Jones goes 0-for-4 tonight, his metrics will decline rapidly, just as his OPS increased by 33 points in one day. He needs about 100 AB before we can determine who he is. The only advantage he has over Benge is raw power; Benge is better in every other facet of the game.
@yonann Nobody wants communal living. We all desire a sense of community and small-town principles. I would argue that just about every suburban community looks out for one another. Don’t mistake politics and policies for values.
@Conor_Green51 Benge going to finish his rookie year with a 20/20 season while already establishing himself as one of the game's best defensive outfielders. If he played his home games in the Bronx, he'd be on pace for a 30-HR season.
@STLSprtsCntrl@b_miklasz Benge is ahead of Wetherholt. They both play great defense and I understand Wetherholt plays the more premium position but Benge is having a better offensive season.
@TalkinBaseball_ I think this is a bit of a mirage. Take almost any great starter of the modern era, tell him to stop pacing himself and throw every pitch at max effort, and you’d probably see a crazy stretch of dominance too. Incredible to watch, but I don’t see how it’s sustainable.
