No, Niese has been much better than Wheeler thus far this season.

It hasn't been as bad as you think:
-Gee was pitching well before getting hurt
-Wheeler has been up and down this year, when he's good he's good, when he's bad he's bad. There hasn't been an in between.
-Niese has been relatively consistent in a good way
-Colon looked bad in the beginning of the season, but has looked great in the past month or so
-deGrom had the hot start and then cooled off

It's the offense that is the problem. In lots of these losses, the Mets score 0-2 runs. If your pitcher gives up four runs, the offense should stand a chance to get back in the game.

The Mets offense is not like that lol
