Despite having the richest owner, the Mets' designated hitter (DH) performance has been disappointing since the implementation of the universal DH in 2021.
In 2020, the Mets began strong with the DH, ranking fifth in OPS, driven by standout performances from Robinson Cano, J.D. Davis, and Dominic Smith.
The combination of bad luck and poor performance has defined the Mets' DH strategy, as they failed to maintain their earlier success into the subsequent seasons.
Leading in PA, Pete Alonso struggled to replicate previous success as the team cycled through various players, contributing to their overall DH disappointment post-2020.
