It's April 23rd. From game day to every day, this is New York Met's news today, powered by AI. The New York Met's are in deep trouble with a 12-game losing streak that's shocking the baseball world. This team has one of the biggest payrolls, second largest in the league, and they were supposed to crush it offensively. Instead, during the skid, they've averaged just 1.83 runs per game. Dead last in on-base percentage at 285, slugging at, 332, and way below average in weighted runs, created plus at 78. Key off-season signings have flopped hard. Boba Shed is batting 219 with a 255 on-base and just 1 homer. Marcus Simeon sits at 225 with a 592 OPS. Closer Devon Williams blew it last night, facing five batters without an out, pushing his ERA to 995. Sports talk is exploding over this mess. Steven A. Smith went off on first take, saying manager Carlos Mendoza has to go by

months end because the team can't find any spark. He pointed to scoring two runs or less in 11 of 12 games, as proof they're awful, despite the talent. Not everyone's on board, though. Chris Russo thinks fans blame President David Stern's more than Mendoza for the roster issues. Smith clapped back, stressing the offense's brutal stats like a 1.94 team batting average, more strikeouts than hits, and barely any runs. Tonight at 7 p.m. Eastern, they face the Minnesota twins with Juan Soto back in the lineup, desperate to end this two week nightmare and prove the hot takes wrong.
