Wheeler allowed the Rangers to score just a single run on six hits and three walks over seven innings Wednesday, striking out five in a no-decision.
EDGE Analysis
He left with a lead, only to see Jerry Blevins blow it in the eighth inning before the Mets eked out a win in the ninth. While it hasn't always been pretty and efficient for Wheeler, he's managed to get the job done more often than not this year. Now 27 years old, Wheeler has only 60 MLB starts under his belt thanks to his 2014 Tommy John surgery, so there's still room for him to continue growing as a pitcher. The key will be cutting his walk rate, which remains too high at 3.73 BB/9.
