The New York Mets are facing significant offensive struggles as they recently lost back-to-back games for the first time this season. The team's batting average with runners in scoring position has been abysmal, ranking 29th in the league. Juan Soto, despite being a high-profile addition, has not delivered the expected performance. He has recently hit home runs in consecutive games, yet fans feel his at-bats lack the quality they expected. The spotlight is on Soto and other key players like Pete Alonso, as they need to step up to improve the team's offensive output.

Alonso remains a bright spot, boasting a solid OPS, but overall, the Mets' lineup needs to perform better. With a new season underway, the pressure is mounting in New York for the big-ticket players to deliver and lead the team back into contention. Fans are becoming impatient, and the team's success will heavily depend on how quickly they can find their stride offensively.
