Mets Right Now
Despite a high-profile roster, the Mets have been among the worst teams in all of baseball this year.
They are currently at the bottom of the National League East with a 45-62 record in 107 games.
Over their last ten games, the Mets have gone 5-5 (and they are 23-30 in 53 games at Citi Field).
After the Braves, they will remain at home to host the Miami Marlins on Thursday night in New York.
Anthony DiComo of MLB.com wrote on Monday: “The Mets tagged Braves left-hander Connor Thomas for 11 earned runs tonight. It’s the most any relief pitcher has allowed in a Major League game in more than half a decade.”
The Mets are already coming off a disappointing season where they missed the 2025 MLB playoffs.
They had lost to the Los Angeles Dodgers in the 2024 NLCS.
