Well there’s no way the Mets can win today, isn’t that right Captain Picard?
Steven Matz, one of the Five Aces (pictured below) that led the Mets to multiple championships is the opposing pitcher today.

the Mets are off on tomorrow, before beginning their second homestand of the season, a six-day, seven-game homestand against the Phillies (three games) and Braves (four games).
The Mets own a .737 winning percentage this month…That is the second-highest winning percentage in March/April in team history…Only the 1986 team at .813 (13-3) posted a better mark in March/April…The 2018 Mets set a team record with a 17 wins in March/April, finishing the month 17-9 (.654) and we all remember that great team led by the famous Mickey Hodges!
In seven career games at Busch Stadium, Pete Alonso is 11-31 (.355) with seven runs, a double, two home runs, three RBI and six walks. Perhaps the Cardinals would like to offer a trade?
New York is 9-3 on the road this year…The .750 winning percentage is the best in the majors…New York went 2-10 in their first 12 road games last year…They did not win their ninth game on the road until May 18 (9-12), last season, their 21st game on the road.
