The Mets have spent much of the first few months of the season chasing their performance from last year, when the reality is that they are chasing five teams for the final National League wild-card spot.
Indeed, the obligatory nightly egregious mental blunder on Friday was not committed by a Met, but by a Cardinal. Opposite Night at Citi Field. In the top of the fifth inning, with his team trailing 5-1, runners on first and second and one out after Willson Contrares had gone deep off Tylor Megill to lead off the frame, premier prospect Jordan Walker unaccountably tried to steal third base.
Vogelbach is not quite to the Mets and their fan base what Aaron Hicks had become to the Yankees and their ravenous following, but he was a primary face of the franchise’s disappointing season. That’s what carrying a slash line of .203/.343/.297 with two home runs and 14 RBI in 118 at-bats brings. That gave aid and comfort to Megill, and also to the Mets, who added two more runs in the third before Vogelbach grounded out to second to end the inning and initiate murmurs. Four-for-46. What in the world was Mark Vientos doing on the bench yet again even with a right-hander on the mound?Vogelbach has been working. He had been at the field early and on off days. The 30-year-old had been diligent in seeking what he had lost.
