Talk about an apt ending to the first half of the 2026 season for the New York Mets. The Mets got swept by the Red Sox and invented new ways to lose in all three games. It was a miserable end to what has been a rotten 2026 season so far. What happens now with the Trade Deadline rapidly approaching remains to be seen. But what is clear is that these Mets aren’t anywhere close to being good...
The New York Mets just couldn’t get anything going offensively in Toronto. The Mets dropped two out of three to the Blue Jays, losing a fifth straight series as a result. They’ve also lost 10 of their last 12 games. Without doubt, the driving force behind the woes in Toronto was a real lack of offense. The lineup was lifeless for most of the series. Yet another clunker from Freddy...

Opening up the homestand with three games against the Arizona Diamondbacks, the Mets dropped two out of three to lose the series and fall to 7-6 on the year.
