When Will The Mets Provide Run Support For Johan Santana ?


Johan Santana, since his 100th career win, on June 1st, is pitching well enough to win, but, his teammates are not providing enough run support.

In his next six starts, Johan is 0-4, with two no-decisions. He has pitched 40 innings, allowing 11 earned runs, on 35 hits, only 2 home runs, walking 12, and striking out 38. His ERA over those six starts is a fantastic 2.48 – this is hardly Johan’s fault.

Johan is 7-7, and with adequate run support, could EASILY be 10-4, or better.
