The New York Mets aren't happy with their 2-5 start to the season, but they also aren't overly concerned that the slow start is a sign of some bigger problem.

"I'm not sitting here down in the dumps, thinking the season's a waste," Terry Collins said. "We've got a stinking marathon to go."

Noah Syndergaard struck out 12 against the Miami Marlins on Tuesday night, but New York still lost 2-1.
