On April 29th, the New York Met's offense is hitting rock bottom this season, owning the worst stats in the majors for run scored, on-base percentage. Slugging percentage, and OPS heading into Tuesday. They just got swept in a double header by the Colorado Rockies on Sunday, managing only one run total, which left everyone scratching their heads. Manager Carlos Mendoza called it something he's never seen before, while new hitting coach Matt Snicker, son of former brave skipper Brian Snicker, says these slumps happen to even the best teams. He saw it in Houston too, before turning things around there. Snicker and director of hitting Jeff Albert were brought in to spark this revamped lineup, and they're backing the players to step up, stressing it. A group effort not just on the coaches, against high velocity fastballs at 96 mph or faster, the Met's ring dead last and slugging at 0.231, with weak on-base. And batting averages too. They need better ball flight to the outfield and sharper fastball contact to unlock everything

else. The fix is very hitter by hitter, but the focus stays on teamwork, building off each ad bat and attacking key areas with the same culture that worked. Before expect them to grind toward a turnaround soon, stay locked in with New York Met's news today, AI powered updates, I'm Corey with The Story.
