The Mets offense (or lack there of)

[The Hot Corner]

This team is virtually unwatchable at this point.  Virtually no one is hitting.  Every opposing pitcher looks like the reincarnation of Cy Young when facing our hapless and inept lineup.  

The following is a depressing list of the Mets team ranking in MLB for several key offensive Statistics:

Batting Average - 25th (hard to imagine there are 5 teams that are hitting worse than the Mets)

On Base Percentage - 29th 

Slugging Percentage -28th

OPS - 29th

Runs Scored - 26 (Surprised they are doing that well considering the above noted levels of ineptness).

 

Getting Soto back soon will obviously help, but there are far too many holes in the line up for any one player to significantly improve the run production.  Lindor and Bichette have to get going.  Baty and Benge need to reach a level of at least moderate competence.  Robert is doing more than I anticipated, but his hot start is rapidly becoming a distant memory.

Interesting.

30. White Sox .195 - Murakami has a 117 OPS+, but everyone else is horrid. The "team leader" is Chase Meidroth at .222.

29. Reds .200 - Sal Stewart is at .303/.413/.682 and Elly is at .267/.345/.547, but other than that? Yikes. Ke'Bryan Hayes is 3 for 47.

28. Mariners .209 - Brendan Donovan, Luke Raley, and Randy Arozarena are carrying them. Josh Naylor has the worst "qualified" BA in the majors at .118.

27. MFYs .214 - HAH! Ben Rice has been hot, Judge has hit homers but done little else. 

26. Mets .220

Honorable mention to the Giants, whose .286 OBP is the only one worse than ours because they don't walk at all.

Hot Corner is trying to be kind

How is the word 'Noffense' not in this thread?

[Centerfield]

There’s no point. Even if the Mets found some way to score enough runs we know that would be the game the bullpen blows. 
 

this team seems nowhere near good enough.

We have three or four threads on the Mets offense going at once.  One of them is called "Noffense."

I have merging power but, I'm all hands-off these days.
