The New York Mets faced significant offensive struggles during their opening series against the Houston Astros, accumulating only five runs in three games. Key player Francisco Lindor went 0-for-11 and left critical runners stranded, while the team collectively failed to capitalize in scoring opportunities, finishing 0-for-8 with runners in scoring position. Juan Soto showed promise by hitting the team's only homer but couldn't spark the offense alone. A visit to the Miami Marlins is seen as a potential opportunity for the Mets to improve their batting performance going forward.
The lineup built to torment opponents isn't there yet.
The Mets scored five runs over the three games and can only hope a jaunt to Miami... can awaken their slumbering bats.
Lindor finished 0-for-11 in the series, leaving the tying run stranded at second base.
Soto, who had the Mets' lone hit on Saturday, reached base seven times in the three games.
