Through five starts this season when Brian Bannister had a 2.48 ERA and a 3-2 record, Mets fans were pulling their hair out and extremely upset that Bannister was traded for the now injured Ambiorix Burgos. 

Now, Bannister is 7-12 with a 5.96 ERA partly due to his miserable start yesterday afternoon.  Facing the Yankees, Bannister failed to record an out in the second inning, and allowed 10 earned runs.  The barrage of hits included three home runs, a double and a triple. 

Bannister has lost six consecutive decisions.
