Summary
The Mets’ $382 million payroll hasn’t delivered the expected dominance—they’re 26-33, seven games under .500, and 13.5 behind Atlanta in the NL East. After wild swings in past seasons, this slump feels ominous, especially with Wild Card hopes hanging by a thread. Desperate, they’re turning to prospects like Benge, Ewing, and Morabito for a spark. But with high-priced hitters still struggling, this could become baseball’s most expensive failure. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
