No, the other shoe has not dropped on the Mets.
Yes, they just suffered two ugly losses in San Diego after running out underwhelming lineups with Pete Alonso and Starling Marte sidelined (temporarily, we believe). Yes, the team ERA is north of five since Max Scherzer got hurt. And yes, their National League East lead has been whittled to seven games by the resurgent Braves and Phillies.
But this is not 2007, 2008 or 2021. These are not the same old Mets. This is their best roster in a decade. It’s not time to panic.
