The New York Mets are currently facing a tough stretch, having lost five games in a row, with a total of just nine runs scored during this period. Manager Carlos Mendoza remains optimistic, stating, "You just gotta stay consistent, you gotta stay positive with the guys." The team recently struggled against the Oakland Athletics, where they were shut out twice in three days and outscored 33-12 during their last homestand. Pitcher Freddy Peralta performed well, allowing only one run over six innings, but the Mets' hitters struggled against Athletics starter Aaron Civale. The absence of Juan Soto has compounded the team's offensive woes, yet Mendoza insists that the remaining players have the capacity to score runs. As the Mets prepare for a challenging series against the Los Angeles Dodgers, currently leading the National League West, they aim to turn their fortunes around. Mendoza believes in the team's potential, stating, "It’s a tough stretch for the hitters but we continue to have confidence in the players that are active."
