The New York Mets are currently experiencing a severe slump in performance, having lost seven consecutive games and 11 out of the last 12, causing them to fall 5.5 games behind the Philadelphia Phillies. Their recent defeat against the Milwaukee Brewers, which saw them squander a five-run lead, epitomizes their struggles. Key players such as Francisco Lindor, Juan Soto, and Pete Alonso have all been underperforming, significantly impacting the team's offensive output. Despite the grim circumstances, players like Brandon Nimmo express optimism about turning their season around.
The Mets have lost seven straight games and 11 of their last 12, leading to a 5.5-game deficit behind the first-place Philadelphia Phillies. Major players like Francisco Lindor and Pete Alonso have struggled, with Lindor batting .191 in the last 50 games and Alonso .168 in the last 26 games. An eighth inning lead was squandered against the Milwaukee Brewers, culminating in a 7-6 loss.
It's tough, frustrating. But we've got to turn the page... at this rate, the belief feels disingenuous, even if that's all the Mets can really cling on to.
Brandon Nimmo stated, 'We can go on a run. We've still got time, it just takes putting it together, playing some good baseball. I don't think the division is slipping away.'
The Mets squandered a five-run lead to lose 7-6, marked by a walk-off home run by Isaac Collins off closer Edwin Diaz, showcasing their recent struggles.
