The Mets just got swept by the Braves and now sit at 4th place in the NL East behind the Phillies. How does Buck Showalter feel? Is he pissed off? Does he want to see some heads roll? Nope. He’s proud of his guys. They gave it the ol’ college try:

Damn. I know Buck is a player’s coach and it’s a long season, but you look at this team and it’s hard not to have some concern.

Not to mention your bullpen is decimated because of your closer’s preseason injury and the schedule isn’t doing you any favors the next month: at Pirates, Yankees, at Astros, at Phillies, Brewers, Giants, and at DBacks.
