Mets & Phillies Flop, Fans Demand Manager Changes

0:00On April 21st, both the New York Mets and Philadelphia Phillies are stumbling hard out the gate this season. The Mets sit dead last in baseball, with just seven wins, while the Phillies are right behind at eight. These NLE's rivals, who dropped nearly $700 million combined, are mired in losing streaks. Six straight for Philly, 11 for the... Mets enthrale the Atlanta Braze by seven or eight games before May even hits. Philly has zero excuses, though. Their top players are suiting up every night, unlike the Mets, who have been without star Juan Soto for two weeks. The Phillies even had to turn to Taiwan Walker in a recent loss, because ASAC Wheeler is sidelined, forcing them into a deeper rotation shuffle. Fans are fed up on both sides, with Philly folks especially heated over third baseman Alec Bohm, hitting just 140 at the plate. There's drama, too. Bohm sued his parents, accusing them of swiping millions through shell companies and charities, though insiders say it's all. Accounted for, and he's just confused, calls are growing to Axe Managers, Rob Thompson and Philly, and Carlos Mendoza in New York.

1:08Now, the Mets face a crucial nine-game homestand against middling teams like the 500 twins and nationals. If they flop below four and five, Mendoza could be gone. In Philly, Benchcoach Don Mattingley is getting buzz as a potential Thompson replacement, especially with fans demanding changes. It's wild how these big-spending powerhouses are trading barbs instead of blows with the braves. Both fan bases know the real pain is watching Atlanta. Pull away while they reload the manager hot seat. That wraps New York Mets News. Today brought to you with AI. I'm Cory with the story.
