The Mets split a series with the Braves this week, dropping the first two games and bouncing back to take the next two games. But then they were outscored 30-4 by the league’s worst offense. A lot of that is at the feet of the pitching and rest assured that meter will bring fresh horrors to your eyes, but the hitters are certainly not blameless either. Where the Pirates put together big innings, the Mets’ woes with runners in scoring position continued. If you want to save yourself the time of reading my little blurbs—and I wouldn’t blame you—this week’s meter can be summarized thusly: Juan Soto is hitting and almost no one else is.
