Adrian Houser’s Struggles Continue As Potential Replacements Near Return

Adrian Houser entered Saturday’s start against the St. Louis Cardinals with a 7.45 ERA through four starts. Houser needed to a turn in a strong outing to ensure his spot in the rotation. Instead, it was more of the same with Houser on the mound. The New York Mets made a late push, but it wouldn’t be enough, as the Cardinals secured a series victory on the road with a 7-4 win on Saturday.

Houser could not have drawn up a worse start to the game, surrendering four hits to the first five batters.
