Some of this will change by the end of the season, but I just wanted to take a quick look at how the Mets' bullpen has performed, in general terms, for each month of the season so far. Not that anyone was expecting it, but there isn't a whole lot to get excited about here.
| Month | IP | K/9 | WHIP | ERA |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| April | 88.1 | 7.05 | 1.36 | 3.58 |
| May | 82.1 | 7.98 | 1.29 | 4.04 |
| June | 89.1 | 6.95 | 1.34 | 4.43 |
| July | 79 | 8.66 | 1.39 | 4.67 |
| August | 75 | 6.96 | 1.59 | 4.92 |
| September | 37.2 | 7.41 | 1.22 | 3.56 |
It may not have seemed like it of late, but the Mets' bullpen has been about as good in September as in any other month this season. April and September seem to have bookended four mostly crappy months in between. Almost all of their September success came at the beginning of the month when they put together that week-long stretch of success. Since then it's been pretty bleak, punctuated by last night's septet of near-ineptitude.

I Wonder....
how this compares to all the other teams in the majors? I know the Mets’ bullpen has been pot luck or russian roulette but do many other teams suffer worse? That’s what I would like to know (but am too lazy to find out on my own!).

You need more stats to tell the story.

Nobody breaks those down by month
The stats you see had to be compiled through Excel to begin with. Blown saves are a little misleading because a blown save can happen in any inning, not just the ninth.
