I. The Mets cannot score runs.
II. The Mets cannot stop their opponents from scoring runs.
I don't want to jump to conclusions, but this doesn't look like a good combination.

For those who didn't watch the disaster, er, game, Mets pitchers walked 8 Reds. Including Miguel Castro walking the opposing pitcher.
With two outs.
And the bases loaded.
On
four pitches.
At one point, Mets "pitching" had gone to three-ball counts on 11 out of the previous 12 Cincy hitters. Are you sh*tting me?

MLB: We love you, Mets! Look at this easy-peasy July schedule we dreamed up! Seven straight games with Pittsburgh…you know they're toast. And then you go to Cincinnati, and you always win there. And then an 11-game homestand! Time to get hot and open up that lead, right?
METS: go 10-11
MLB: Well, that didn't go so well. But at least you've got four games with Miami to straighten things out, now.
Rojas: Hold my cerveza.
