There is no reason to sugarcoat it: It’s been a dumpster fire of a season in Queens.
Mets fans aren’t taking — and can’t take — solace from words anymore. They need action from their team — and those actions may be better directed toward the 2027 season at this point because it seems as if only miracles can save the Amazin’s now.
After Wednesday’s dreadful doubleheader sweep at Citi Field, the Mets (34-46) are 14.5 games behind the Braves for first place in the NL East. It’s not July yet.
They’re also nine games back in the race for a wild-card spot in the National League. To get there, they would have to hurdle seven teams, including the Cubs, who beat them 10-3 and 10-5 in the day-night twinbill.
