Fans nine in loss Bassitt (5-5) took the loss Sunday against Miami, allowing three runs on five hits and two walks while striking out nine in 6.1 innings.
Impact Bassitt cruised through the first six innings, allowing just three singles and a walk while holding Miami scoreless. In the seventh, however, he loaded the bases with one out and all three baserunners came around to score after he was removed when Jerar Encarnacion smacked a grand slam. Since May 19, the veteran has struggled with a 5.80 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and seven homers allowed in 40.1 innings. He will likely face Miami again in his next start, next weekend.

Throws eight scoreless Bassitt (5-4) earned the win over the Brewers on Tuesday, allowing three hits and one walk over eight scoreless innings. He struck out seven.
Impact After a six-run hiccup in San Diego last week, Bassitt returned home to have his best start of the season so far, limiting Milwaukee to just a trio of singles. He has been much better at Citi Field -- his road ERA checks in north of 5.00 in his first season with the Mets. However, with a career-high strikeout rate, Bassitt may be able post better results away from home moving forward and further chip away at his ERA and WHIP.

Shelled by Padres on Wednesday Bassitt (4-4) lasted only 3.1 innings against San Diego on Wednesday, allowing seven runs (six earned) on seven hits and two walks to take the loss. He struck out six batters.
Impact Bassitt fell behind in the first inning and gave up an unearned run in the third, but the fourth inning was when things fell apart for him. The right-hander was hurt by an error behind him, but he also gave up three hits and a walk while retiring only one batter in the frame. This was Bassitt's shortest start of the season and marked the third outing during which he has given up at least five earned runs. His ERA swelled to 4.35 as a result of the rough appearance, which is on pace for his worst mark since he posted a 6.11 ERA across five games in 2016.

Takes loss in quality start Bassitt (4-3) took the loss during Friday's 6-1 defeat at the hands of the Dodgers, allowing three runs on five hits and two walks with eight strikeouts in six innings.
Impact Bassitt made two mistakes in serving up homers to Cody Bellinger and Zach McKinstry to fall behind early and New York was never able to recover. Despite the loss, the 32-year-old came away with some positives by firing a season-high 110 pitches and matching a season-best with eight strikeouts. Bassitt will carry a 3.74 ERA and 1.17 WHIP into his next start, scheduled for midweek against San Diego.

Whiffs seven in quality start Bassitt didn't factor into the decision during Sunday's 5-4 victory over Philadelphia, allowing one run on two hits and three walks with seven strikeouts in six innings.
Impact Bassitt encountered a bases-loaded jam with none out in the third inning but was able to escape allowing just one run and proceeded to retire the final 10 Phillies he faced. It was a nice rebound for the 33-year-old, who had surrendered 12 runs across 10.2 innings in his last two starts combined, and Bassitt has now permitted one run or fewer in six of his 10 turns. He'll carry a 3.66 ERA and 1.17 WHIP into a start projected to come next weekend against the Dodgers.

Hit hard in no-decision Bassitt didn't factor into the decision during Tuesday's 13-12 loss to San Francisco, allowing eight runs on eight hits and three walks with four strikeouts in 4.1 innings.
Impact Bassitt didn't have his stuff working Tuesday as he surrendered the bulk of the damage on a pair of Joc Pederson two-run shots and a Tommy La Stella three-run homer but was bailed out when New York rallied in the eighth inning. The 33-year-old's two worst outings have come against San Francisco, as he also permitted five runs in a loss April 20, though Bassitt has pitched well in his other seven starts with a 2.11 ERA and 1.03 WHIP compared to 3.91 and 1.21 marks on the season. He'll look to get back on track early next week against Washington.
