last night's loss

Could tip either way. A 3-run loss last night is the biggest weight on the score. Counterbalancing that, allowing just 2.4 runs per game. The pitching has been a strength.

Mets News

Kodai Senga's return to the mound was promising for four innings, but a collapse in the fifth doomed the Mets to a 5-2 defeat against the Marlins, worsening their dismal record to 47-64.

The Mets' lineup continues to struggle, unable to provide the necessary support, as they chase a meager offensive output against a Miami team that's just above .500.
