Outside of a seven-run performance on Friday night against the Colorado Rockies, the Mets offense over the past week has been virtually non-existent.

The Mets offense has been shutout in three of their last five games, including last night, and the other performance they scored in was a mere two-run showing against the Atlanta Braves.

Mickey Callaway is being proactive in his approach to trying to fix this problem, as detailed by Fred Kerber of the New York Post.

“I think we’ve been doing that a little bit the last few days. We’ve been hitting guys in different spots, pushing [Michael] Conforto back a couple days ago, Nimmo in there the last couple games. That’s something you should try to do, just to try to bring a little life to our at-bats.”

Callaway currently is struggling to find that right mix in the order, though, as much of the team is struggling.

The Mets currently only have two players on the roster hitting over .300, in Asdrubal Cabrera (.336) and Juan Lagares (.326).

Meanwhile, the team gave Michael Conforto a “mental day-off” yesterday as the 25-year old has not been able to get into any sort of groove this year with a .187/.347/.267 slash line with only one homer and six RBI.

Callaway thought that adding Brandon Nimmo back to the top of the order would make an instant difference, but they might have to give him some more time to see the payoff as the outfielder has gone 1-7 since re-entering the lineup to lower his season average to .268.

That being said, Nimmo did also draw two walks in that span, which once again shows off his terrific on-base skills (.455 OBP), which is what the team needs right now.

Early in April, when the offense was at its peak, the Mets were tiring out opposing pitchers by drawing walks and forcing pitchers to throw hittable pitches as a result.

The team has simply not been doing that much over their last five games with only ten walks in that span.

The Mets currently rank ninth in the league in walks with 121 despite that, but could certainly use a boost in that category to help facilitate the offense and allow them to act more aggressively on the basepaths.
