Mets fans showered Bo Bichette with boos after he struck out with two runners in scoring position during the seventh inning of Sunday's loss to the Pirates. Bichette understands why. In fact, he cleverly said that he was surprised they waited this long to voice their displeasure with his disastrous start with the franchise.
Bichette, who signed a three-year, $126 million contract with New York in the offseason, was dreadful in the Mets' opening weekend series against Pittsburgh. The second-most expensive free agent of his class went 1-for-14 in three contests with a single RBI. He's out to an early lead for the most strikeouts in the National League with eight. His advanced stats are even worse.
