We are nearly three months into what has been a disastrous start by the Mets and a disappointing one for the Yankees.
They probably can’t even be termed “starts” anymore, as we approach the midway point of the 162-game slate.
The Yanks, at least, finished off their second straight series victory Sunday over the Rangers, while the Mets suffered what play-by-play man Gary Cohen somehow dubbed “their most horrific” loss of the year with their meltdown against the Phillies.
As MLB All-Star voting moves into its finalists phase on Monday to determine the starters in each league, it is painfully obvious that the two New York ball clubs are not going to be — nor do they deserve to be — well-represented at the Midsummer Classic on July 11 at T-Mobile Park in Seattle.
