Good morning, Mets fans.

The Mets have lost four straight games since the trade deadline passed by a combined score of 30-11. Following a three-game sweep by the Royals, the Mets lost again last night to the Orioles by a score of 10-3. Former Met James McCann put on a show with three hits, five RBIs, and a stolen base. With the Mets now sitting at 50-59, it looks more and more every day like the Mets made the right move to sell at the deadline.
