Mets News
The New York Mets finally appear to be turning a corner after sweeping the Detroit Tigers, highlighted by Juan Soto's return to form, as he crushed a home run in his comeback from an injury scare. This offensive spark is crucial for a team that's struggled, averaging just 3.3 runs per game over the last week and languishing at 15-25 on the season. A.J. Ewing, a recent call-up, also showcased his potential by launching his first major league home run, leaving fans hopeful amidst a roster that currently carries 11 players on the injured list. While the bullpen's heavy reliance on Huascar Brazobán could lead to pitfalls down the road, there's a glimmer of optimism as the team gears up for their next challenge.
