Shortstop Francisco Lindor struggled significantly during the opening weekend against the Astros, going 0-for-11 and highlighting ongoing performance challenges reminiscent of last season. Lindor’s poor start follows a similarly dismal stretch last year, raising concerns as the Mets aim for a deep postseason run. The team's overall offensive performance was lackluster, with few players contributing effectively, aside from newcomer Juan Soto. Lindor recognizes the need for improvement and expresses determination to enhance his on-base presence, all while juggling personal developments with his family expanding.
"Three games is not nearly the same sort of sample size as last year's issue, but the off nights can avalanche quickly during a slump, which the Mets can ill afford to deal with for a second straight season."
"I've got to do a way better job to be on base and to make things happen. I feel like the guys had quality at-bats the entire weekend."
