Question of the week: will the Mets get back to .500 this season?

[Brock Beauchamp]

Disastrous start to the season aside, this is still a really talented squad. Do you think they'll get back to .500 at any point this season? And if yes, then when?

Wrong time to post this, after a sweep where they looked pretty good against a team that's playing poorly right now.

They can probably limp back to .500 at some point because there's a lot of talent here.  But they could just as easily be 20 under because they can't sustain any offense.

The answers you get to this question might look a little different if they get swept by the Yankees.

Oh, definitely, which is half the fun, to watch people's perceptions of a team ebb and flow over 162.

For the team OPS? Yeah, there's an outside shot at it if everyone gets hot at the same time.
