The New York Mets aren’t in the safest spot at the moment. After losing two out of three to the Los Angeles Dodgers this past weekend, the Mets are now 4.0 games back in the National League Wild Card race. This deficit comes with 13 games left to play.
New York has to step up on this upcoming six-game road trip in Colorado and Cincinnati. One of the players who needs to produce more than he has as of late is one of the team’s biggest bats. Since hitting two home runs in a win over the Arizona Diamondbacks last Monday, third baseman Pete Alonso has gone hitless in his last 20 at-bats.
