Many of the good vibes from last week’s winning streak were erased this week, as the Mets once again lost two series to two mediocre teams in the Cubs and Rockies. The series in Denver over the weekend was a classic Coors Field affair in the sense that the Mets scored plenty of runs, but they still managed to drop two out of three regardless thanks mostly to poor pitching performances. The good news is that Pete Alonso is still hitting dingers and Francisco Álvarez has joined him as another legitimate power thread in the Mets lineup.
