So the Mets are up 2-0 and have the bags full in the fourth against the Reds. Gary Cohen, talking to Ron Darling, shows some annoyance with their unrispness.

"Wouldn't it be nice, if the Mets could give Jacob DeGrom a nice, healthy cushion? Like four, or five runs? I hear, some pitchers do get that at a semi-regular basis!"

Golden.

So, some fool hits a sac fly;

Cohen: When was the last time Jacob had a 3-run lead?
Darling: Must have been 2016.

Yup, Mets are bad enough to be fun. It's that semi-crummy gray area around .450 that makes you really hate teams. The closer they are to .400 the better it gets...
