The New York Mets had the perfect setup with their unsung ace, Kodai Senga, on the mound against the Bad News Cardinals. However, the game ended in another disappointing loss for the Mets, causing their frustrated fans to leave the Citi Field exasperated. The absence of Pete Alonso, who is out due to an injury, has left the lineup and team lacking the power and intimidation factor they need to succeed. Despite there still being plenty of season left, time is running out for the Mets to turn things around. They can’t solely rely on Daniel Vogelbach to carry the team without Alonso. Mark Canha acknowledged that the lineup is much stronger with Alonso in it, highlighting his prowess as one of the most prolific power hitters in the game. Senga didn’t perform at his best, struggling with his command and giving up crucial home runs to Paul Goldschmidt and Jordan Walker. However, he showed mental toughness and made adjustments to keep the Mets in the game. Unfortunately, the Mets’ offensive struggles continued as they missed opportunities with runners on base and failed to capitalize on scoring chances. Francisco Lindor acknowledged that the team has been competitive in most games but needs to find a way to close out games and secure victories. On a positive note, Lindor made an effort to contribute even after low sleep following the birth of his second daughter. Showalter and the Mets are hoping for a stronger performance from Max Scherzer, who has recently struggled to find his usual form. Ultimately, the team needs their star players like Alonso to return and make a significant impact. The Mets’ owner, Steve Cohen, expects a better return on his investment in their talented pitching staff, as time is of the essence for the team’s success.
