Williams' Mets Struggles Continue

0:00On April 22nd, Devon Williams, the former Milwaukee Brewer's All-Star Closer, is riding a rough patch with the New York Mets. On Tuesday night, April 21st, he had a nightmare 9th inning against the Minnesota Twins, giving up two runs without recording a single out. The help seal a 5-3 loss, marking the Mets 12 straight defeat and dropping them to 7 wins and 16 losses, the worst record. In the National League, Williams walked three batters, including one with the bases loaded, and the Mets couldn't even get an out on a sacrifice punt. He's allowed runs in three games in a row now, blowing a save on April 19th and surrendering four runs on April 15th. Since signing a three-year 51-million-dollar deal this off-season, he's got just two saves and a sky-high 9.95 ERA over eight. Appearances. This feels like deja vu from last year with the Yankees, where he started hot after a trade from Milwaukee but stumbled early with an 11 point.

1:0025 ERA by late April. He bounced back strong over the next 33 games at 2.87, though late season woes hit with runs in five straight outings. Overall, he posted a 4.79 ERA with 90 strikeouts and 62 innings. Back in Milwaukee from 2020 through 2024, Williams was dominant with a win. Williams was dominant with a 1.70 ERA, 361. Strikeouts in 222 innings. Even in his injury shortened 2024 half-season there, he's shown at 1.25 before that brutal 4-run 9th in the playoffs. His career has been a wild role to coaster since leaving the brewers, but at 29, there's still time to flip the script and lock down those late innings for New York. That's the story for today.
