Of the two numbers, the 30 runs allowed were more alarming.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRick [Porcello] is a perfect example of it,\u201d Rojas said of the right-hander, who allowed four runs in six innings in the loss. \u201cThe more he goes through the lineup, the better he pitches, he has a better feel for his pitches. His command gets better and he gets a little more in sync. We are getting behind early. In order for us to finish strong this season that is one of the things we are going to have to start taking care of.\u201d\n            <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>if you want to <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">watch Movies<\/a> or Tv Shows go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/dizi.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dizi.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a> <\/span> for forums sites go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/forum.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Forum.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>If you want to read more Sports News articles, you can visit our <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.buradabiliyorum.com\/general\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">General category.<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2020\/09\/16\/mets-jacob-degrom-cant-afford-misstep-in-tight-cy-young-race\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Source<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;#Mets\u2019 Jacob deGrom can\u2019t afford misstep in tight Cy Young race&#8221; September 16, 2020 | 3:50am PHILADELPHIA \u2014 Trevor Bauer and Yu Darvish are lurking, awaiting any Jacob deGrom misstep.
