The Mets’ pitching has been a huge surprise so far with just how good they have been.
They came into the season with the pitching staff being their biggest question mark. So far, it’s been the hitting that has not done their part.
A man with some responsibility for the success the staff in Queens has had is pitching coach Jeremy Hefner.
He joined Joel Sherman and Jon Heyman this week on “The Show” podcast.
‘The Show’ podcast with Joel Sherman & Jon Heyman:
- FIRST MONTH OBSERVATIONS: Dodgers probably will run away with it. Mookie Betts has been remarkable. Yamamoto has bounced back after a slow start. AL Central and NL Central have both been surprisingly very good.
- PITCHING INJURIES: It’s alarming and a problem for baseball.
