The exact moment when the NY Mets didn't even realize they hit rock bottom this week

Things are looking bleak for the New York Mets. After narrowly avoiding a no-hitter in Wednesday’s loss that capped a sweep by the Cleveland Guardians, the Mets have now lost eight of their last nine games. It just seems like this team hasn't been able to escape the void of mediocrity since their horrid stretch that started in mid-June (they're 18-26 since then), and this weekend, things have come to a head.

The Mets' decision to hold Tyrone Taylor at third on Monday night was the moment rock bottom was hit, and they didn't even know it.
