The New York Mets are experiencing a significant offensive decline, recently suffering a one-hit game against the Cleveland Guardians, contributing to their fourth consecutive defeat. The team's batting average during this rough patch is .189. Blame is directed towards hitting coaches Eric Chavez and Jeremy Barnes, but manager Carlos Mendoza claims accountability. Key players like Juan Soto and Francisco Lindor are hitting below .200, presenting major concerns for the lineup's overall performance. Mendoza acknowledges hard work within the team but emphasizes the need for improvement from everyone, including himself as manager.
The Mets' bats are broken, with a .189 batting average, and were one-hit by Gavin Williams in a 4-1 loss, marking their fourth straight loss.
Manager Carlos Mendoza stated, 'It falls on all of us... I'm the manager and I'm responsible... I know how hard those guys are working, but it starts with me.'
The top hitters like Soto, Lindor, and Alonso have been remarkably streaky, contributing to the Mets' struggles as they collectively remain cold.
Soto is batting .207 with a .613 OPS and Lindor is at .199 with a .620 OPS since mid-June, reflecting the team's offensive woes.
