Mets closer Edwin Diaz is not the unhittable force we expected
New York Mets closer Edwin Diaz has been disappointing this year. When compared to other men with the same job title, he looks even more ineffective.
After a season where he saved 57 games for the Seattle Mariners, held batters to a .160 batting average, and finished the season with a 0.79 WHIP, New York Mets fans were hoping to see a similar unhittable force closing out games for them in 2019. Unfortunately, things haven’t gone so well for Edwin Diaz in New York. Though I’m not ready to throw in the towel yet, there’s no denying his inability to repeat history.
