Mets' Losing Streak: Lindor Backs Mendoza, Fans Boo

About this episode

The New York Mets, currently with the worst record in MLB, have lost their eleventh straight game, falling to the Chicago Cubs in extra innings. Despite offseason acquisitions like Juan Soto and a strong performance by manager Carlos Mendoza in the NLCS last year, the team is struggling. Francisco Lindor defends Mendoza, attributing the losses to the players execution rather than the managers strategy. With fans booing and a potential manager swap on the horizon, the Mets must improve their performance to avoid a disappointing season.

It's April 20th. This is New York Metz News Today, Team News powered by AI. The New York Metz just dropped the tight 2-1 loss to the Chicago Cubs in extra innings, making it their 11th straight defeat. Sitting at 7 wins and 15 losses, they've got the worst record in the National League and are tied for the bottom in all of Major League. Baseball Earlier this season, manager Carlos Mendoza took the team to game 6 of the National League Championship Series before falling to the Dodgers. They brought in big names like Juan Soto during the offseason, but after a rough finish last year, with just 83 wins, expectations were, sky high, and now they're crashing hard. Francisco Lindor stepped up big for Mendoza, saying the skippers done a fantastic job preparing everyone, but it's on the players to execute. He called it unfair to blame the manager, stressing that Mindy's got the shit pointed right, the crew just needs to paddle. Lindor even admitted the fans will boo them when they return to City Field Tuesday for

a 3-game set against the Minnesota Twins. With the roster already loaded with expensive talent, a manager swap might be the last big move David Stern's considers. Still, with 5 months until the playoffs, the meds have time to turn it around in Queens, but Lindor knows they gotta start executing now before it's too late.
