Mets' Bichette Slumps in Early Season

0:00On March 30, the New York Mets dropped $126 million on Infielder-Bobe-Shet to supercharge their offense. But just three games in, it's been a rough start for the guy they hoped would light up the lineup. In Sunday's 4-3 loss against the Pittsburgh Pirates, Bashet win 0-5 with three strikeouts. Overall so far, he's batting 0.071 with just 1 RBI and 8 punchouts, putting him near the top for early whiffs. Fans wasted no time, hitting him with booze at the stadium. High expectations in New York mean quit judgments, especially after that big free agent splash. Looking back, Bashet crushed it over seven years with the Toronto Blue Jays, hitting 294 with 111 home runs, 437 RBI's, 60 steals, and two all-star nods. Every player has slumps like this. Plenty of season left though, and the Mets are banking on him bouncing back to carry them deep into October.
