Quietly productive. Took last night by 5. That matters. Also helping: the arms have been stingy at 2.9 RA/G.

Mets News

The Mets finally broke their scoreless spell against the Rockies, with Juan Soto leading the charge by smashing his first leadoff homer of the season. This much-needed offensive spark comes after a rough stretch where the team was outscored and averaged a meager 3.1 runs per game. Despite holding a disappointing 13-22 record, today’s game against Colorado is a chance to build momentum, especially with Freddy Peralta on the mound, who has shown promise despite his early-season struggles. Meanwhile, Carson Benge is quietly improving at the plate and may play a key role as the Mets look to claw their way back into contention. Let’s see if this chilly May day ignites a fire under a team that has too often been stuck in a deep freeze.
