"Weaver stated, 'At the end of the day, the pursuit of perfection is an ultimate pressurized failure mindset. Everybody wants to be the hero because we care and we want to win really, really bad. I don't think success lives in that realm.'"
"'The freedom in which we play day-to-day is kind of being suffocated a little bit. I want to do my job, it's that simple. There's moments it feels really close, and then there's one mistake that magnifies our situation.'"
"'This isn't just a bad stretch for the Mets. This is a historically bad start to a season. Their 10 wins are the third fewest through 31 games in franchise history.'"
Luke Weaver acknowledged the negative impact of losing on the Mets' mentality after a recent defeat. He highlighted the pressure to succeed and the resulting suffocation of their play. The Mets' recent loss to the Nationals marked their fifth loss in six games, contributing to a dismal 10-21 record, the worst in Major League Baseball. This start is historically poor, with only two previous teams in franchise history winning fewer games through 31 games. Weaver expressed a desire for the team to regain its freedom in play.
