Mets News

The New York Mets' struggles continue as they now officially hold the worst record in baseball at 15-25 after a disheartening 1-5 loss to the Diamondbacks, further emphasizing their difficulties at the plate with a paltry 3.3 runs per game over the past week. Amidst the turmoil, the Mets are calling up top prospect A.J. Ewing, hoping this 21-year-old dynamo can inject some much-needed life into a stagnant lineup. The team also outrighted Eric Wagaman to Triple-A, a move that reflects their ongoing roster reshuffling. On the mound, David Peterson is starting to find his footing in a bulk relief role, which could be a silver lining in an otherwise bleak season. With the pressure mounting, fans are left wondering if Ewing can be the spark this team desperately needs.
