  • Are The Mets Turning It Around? Subway Series Could Provide Answer

    The Mets finally gave fans something to cheer about at Citi Field.

    After weeks of frustrating baseball, lifeless at-bats, injuries piling up, and a clubhouse searching for answers, the Mets sweep the Tigers and suddenly the energy feels different. AJ Ewing brought life to the lineup, the kids injected real spark into the crowd, and for the first time in a while Citi Field actually felt alive again.

    BUT… let's not get carried away.

    The Mets are still digging themselves out of a massive hole after an ugly stretch of baseball. One sweep doesn't erase weeks of inconsistency. The question now becomes: can they carry this momentum into the Subway Series against the Yankees?

    This weekend suddenly feels huge.

    The Mets don't just need competitive baseball — they need to win this series. Taking two out of three against the Yankees could completely change the feeling around this season moving forward.

    We break down:

    • AJ Ewing's breakout series
    • Why the kids changed the energy
    • Soto and the offense finally waking up
    • Concerns that still remain
    • Injury problems continuing to pile up
    • Why the Subway Series is now massive for the Mets

      • Carlos Mendoza Has To Go

        The Mets are in free fall. Eleven straight losses. Worst record in baseball. A roster built with one of the biggest payrolls in the sport. And after last year's collapse, this was supposed to be the year the Mets came back angry, focused, and ready to win. Instead, they look lifeless, sloppy, and completely unable to stop the bleeding. The latest loss, a 2-1 extra-inning defeat to the Cubs, only added fuel to the fire after another questionable late-game decision and another wasted chance to end the skid.

        Is this all on Carlos Mendoza? Of course not. The roster construction, the underperforming bats, the bullpen failures, and the front office decisions all matter here. Even Mets officials have publicly defended Mendoza. But that's the reality of the manager's chair in New York: when a high-payroll team collapses two years in a row and opens the season 7-15, the manager becomes the face of the failure.

        Tonight, I'm getting into why Mendoza may not be the biggest reason the Mets are losing, but why he still might be the guy who has to go.

      • 1–5 HOMESTAND DISASTER — Mets Bats Go Silent

        The offense has completely disappeared.

        The New York Mets finish a disastrous 1–5 homestand and get swept by the Oakland Athletics, capped by a brutal 1–0 shutout loss. The Mets have now been shut out twice in the last three games, and the lineup looks completely lost at the plate.

        Now things get even tougher.

        The Mets head to Los Angeles to face the two-time defending champion Los Angeles Dodgers in a three-game series — with the offense ice cold.

        • Mets swept by A's
        • 1–5 homestand disaster
        • Offense completely missing
