Given the moves made at the deadline, the Mets had two hopes for how they would achieve success in the 2025 playoff push. First, the new-look bullpen would be strong enough to overcome any starting pitching struggles the team might endure. And second, the offense would rebound from its recent struggles enough to ensure the pitching doesn’t need to be perfect. Both of those hopes were on display in today’s game against the Giants, as the Mets had an offensive outburst the likes of which they hadn’t had in some time and the bullpen helped them overcome a rough starting pitching performance.
Dominant performances from offense, bullpen lead Mets to 12-6 victory over Giants
