Mets struggle offensively aside from Juan Soto in ongoing MLB season
Summary

The New York Mets face significant offensive challenges this season amid ongoing struggles. While pitcher performance is a factor, their offense ranks among the worst in baseball. Juan Soto's exceptional performance, including eight home runs from May 14-28, starkly contrasts with the rest of the lineup, which combined for only eleven home runs and a low OPS of.601. With one player, Francisco Alvarez, offering any glimmer of hope at a.710 OPS, the team must improve to stay competitive in the postseason race.
