a rough stretch

The numbers aren't lying. Going 0-7 lately. That drags everything down. On top of that, the bats at 1.4 R/G this week. That's not getting it done.

Mets News

The New York Mets' disastrous 11-game losing streak is dragging into freezing territory, leaving manager Carlos Mendoza's future hanging by a thread. After being shut out for the fourth time in just 17 games, the writing is unmistakably on the wall for a team that was supposed to contend but now finds itself at a grim 7-15 record, with a paltry 1.4 runs per game over the last week. With David Peterson struggling significantly on the mound, the Mets' decision to use Tobias Myers as an opener signals a lack of faith in their pitching staff. As fans cling to hope, the potential return of four-time All-Star Juan Soto looms as a possible lifeline. But with the stakes this high, will it be enough to halt the slide or merely delay the inevitable?

The end is near for Carlos Mendoza, even if it isn’t entirely his fault
As another former Mets’ skipper, Yogi Berra, once famously opined: “It’s getting late early”. Fair or not, the writing is on the wall for current Mets’ manager Carlos Mendoza: His time with the club is approaching its end.

Checking in on Scott, Tong and Wenninger in Syracuse
On Sunday, the Mets opted to use Tobias Myers to open in front of David Peterson. While this was likely intended as a way to circumvent the issues Peterson has had early in games — which worked — it did also signal a potential loss of faith in Peterson by the Mets. That, coupled with the Mets not […] The post Checking in on Scott, Tong and Wenninger in Syracuse appeared first on Metsmerized Online.

Peterson-Myers Pitching Plan a Sign of Things to Come?
David Peterson has had a difficult start to the season. Opposing teams have done quite a bit of damage against a majority of his pitches. So, the Mets decided to try something different. Start the game with an opener before going to Peterson. While Sunday’s game against the Cubs didn’t result in a win, largely due […] The post Peterson-Myers Pitching Plan a Sign of Things to Come? appeared first on Metsmerized Online.

Mets turn to young ace McLean to halt slide
You may be aware of this: Things have not been going well for the Mets this season. A team expected to be a contender is currently suffering through an 11-game losing streak and in last place in the NL East.

When might Soto be back for struggling Mets?
The Mets, losers of 11 in a row, could use a boost. Perhaps a boost like four-time All-Star Juan Soto. Fortunately for New York, the club still anticipates Soto (right calf strain) will be back in the fold at some point during the upcoming homestand, which begins Tuesday against the
