One thing I look at always is overall runs scored and runs against. That gives the total. Yes, the Mets have better pitching but they also have givin up more runs per game than the Phillies. Phillies have a better Offense. But overall their pitching has been slightly better. Not just the starting pitching. You need to begin and end the game. It doesn't end with starting pitching.
