The Mets' hitting woes continued on Tuesday, as they mustered just two hits in a 3-0 loss to the Atlanta Braves.
Here are some key takeaways ...
- The Mets were bitten by the injury bug once again, as Marcus Stroman was forced to leave the game in the second inning with left hip soreness. After throwing just 21 pitches, Stroman was pulled from the game, adding yet another question to a pitching rotation already in flux.
- Stroman was replaced by Yennsy Diaz, who came into the game fairly cold, walking a pair with a Dansby Swanson single mixed in to load the bases with nobody out.
