Mets' Slump Continues, Scott vs Urena in Angels Showdown

It's May 1st, New York Mets News. Today starts now, AI powered and ready for kickoff.

The Mets just dropped another series to the Washington Nationals, wrapping up a nightmare

April with a 10-win 21 loss record. They snagged the opener but got crushed. 14-2 in game

2, then blew a late lead in the finale thanks to a 2 run homer by CJ Abrams in the 8th

4-5 to 4 in that's win. That marks just two series wins all month, including a brutal

12-game skid, putting this start as the third worst in franchise history. The front office

is telling everyone to flush it and move on as they head into a 3-game road trip against

the angel starting Friday. Fans and insiders are stunned. The heat hasn't turned up more

on manager Carlos Mendoza, especially with Boston's Alex Cora and Philly's Rob Thompson.

Everything can for similar slow starts, but the Mets are backing their skipper for now,

hoping a fresh voice in the clubhouse isn't needed just yet. Looking ahead, right-hand

or Christian Scott takes the mound for New York against Angel's rookie, Walbert Urina.

The 26-year-old Scott stepped in for the injured Kodai Senga, but struggled in his last

outing, walking 5-1.1 innings against. Minnesota. Urina, just 22, is 0-3 with a rough 4.76

ERA over his first big league starts. First pitch is 9.30 a.m. Eastern on MLB.tv and

regional networks could be the spark the Mets need to turn this season around before it.

Spirals, further.
