Mets Daily Prospect Report, 5/23/21: A thriller in Syracuse
Share this story
SYRACUSE 9, LEHIGH VALLEY 8 (BOX)
This one was a slug fest, with the IronPigs and the Mets trading blows in the late innings before Syracuse ultimately came out on top. Thomas Szapucki started strong, allowing only an unearned run in four innings and striking out five while the Mets built a lead off home runs from David Thompson and Drew Jackson. Bradley Roney and Sam McWilliams were much less successful, however, allowing six runs in four innings between and putting the Mets in a tie game despite another home run from Drew Jackson and a solo shot from J.D. Davis. Cody Bohanek came through in the bottom of the eighth, but Corey Oswalt - making his season debut - coughed up that lead in the top of the ninth as well. The Mets got a gift in the last frame thankfully, with a walk, single, and passed ball allowing Sebastian Elizalde to scamper home with the game winning run.

Syracuse, N.Y. Syracuse Mets manager Chad Kreuter gave a friendly tip to his players when they took cuts in simulated games at their alternate training site in Brooklyn last month.
When you’re done running up the first-base line, he’d tell them, hang a left, not a right. Kreuter knew that the real games were coming up, the ones where you have to run the bases, and he didn’t want them to fall into any bad (and embarrassing) habits.

If there is a fanbase more inherently pessimistic than the Mets’, they hide it better on Twitter. Mets fans notoriously see the world through brown-colored glasses, and so our staff has laid out the reasons why maybe the 2021 season won’t go the way we want.

Kory Powell: Without question, the biggest reason to be pessimistic about this Mets team is the bullpen. Though this team has many strengths, it’s fair to say the bullpen is not one of them. While they did add Trevor May this offseason, Seth Lugo will be starting the year injured, and the depth behind May and Edwin Diaz is worrisome. Dellin Betances and Jeurys Familia both had their struggles this spring, and I fear there will be games this season that end up in extra innings because of the bullpen, or even worse, end up as losses because of the bullpen.
