Mets News

The New York Mets dropped their second straight game to the Miami Marlins, falling 6-2 and showcasing a team lost in limbo. Zac Thornton struggled in his first shaky outing, with Francisco Lindor's error compounding the woes by leading to an unearned run. The Mets' pitching staff can’t always shoulder the blame, but with a recent run differential of just +14 over the last week, the offense remains a concern. As the team stands at 47-64, rumors are swirling around potential trades, particularly with Huascar Brazobán drawing interest from the Pirates. The Mets are in a phase where roster adjustments are necessary, especially after trading A.J. Minter earlier this week and selecting Kevin Herget from Triple-A. As they prepare for another matchup against the Marlins, fans can only hope for signs of life.
