Steven Matz bounced back from his rough first start of the season, but Matt Harvey's struggles continued during the Mets' series win over the Indians in Cleveland over the weekend.
The scary thing about the Mets is not their sub-.500 record. It's their ace pitcher, and there is no way around it.
Steven Matz struck out a career-high nine and allowed three hits over seven innings, bouncing back from a terrible opening start and leading the New York Mets over the Cleveland Indians 6-0 Sunday.
Jacob deGrom's newborn son has improved following a scare due to health complications.
Jason Kipnis and the Cleveland Indians handed Matt Harvey his third straight loss to begin the season, beating the New York Mets 7-5 on Saturday.
Mets pitcher Jacob deGrom has been placed on family medical emergency leave due to "complications" with his newborn son, manager Terry Collins said Saturday.
The New York Mets hit four home runs, including three in the span of seven batters in a five-run fifth inning, to beat the Cleveland Indians 6-5 Friday night at Progressive Field.
DeGrom left last week's home opener against Philadelphia after six innings because a muscle in his right side was tight.
Justifiably, there's a lot of buzz surrounding the Mets' young, talented pitching staff, but the rotation of their weekend opponent, the Cleveland Indians, isn't shabby, either.
Whatever the Mets need to find on this road trip, they had best find it quickly. Seasons can get away from a team just like that.

Kevin Plawecki grounded a tiebreaking, two-run single through a drawn-in infield in the seventh inning, and the New York Mets beat the Miami Marlins 2-1 Wednesday to stop a four-game losing streak.
Good job, good effort, Yoenis Cespedes.
DeGrom left last Friday's home opener against Philadelphia after six innings because a muscle in his right side was tight.
The Mets drop their fourth straight in 2-1 loss to Marlins.
