Mets' Disastrous Start: 8-Game Losing Streak

The New York Mets, with the highest payroll in MLB, are struggling in the 2026 season, currently last in the NL East with an eight-game losing streak. Theyve scored just three runs in their last 38 innings and have four players in hitless streaks of 20 or more at-bats. Big-money stars like Francisco Lindor, Bo Bichette, and Marcus Semien are underperforming, with high ERA pitchers David Peterson and Kodai Senga also struggling. Manager Carlos Mendoza points to too many ground balls and trouble hitting fastballs, as they face the Cubs and Twins.
