The Mets are currently on their longest losing streak since 2004. They still have to lose two more games to tie that streak, three more to break it.
Or the Mets could end all of that talk with a win this afternoon in Chicago. Yesterday, the Mets were able to rack up hits (14) but only converted that into four runs, while the Mets’ pitching imploded in a 12-4 loss. Things are starting to look bleak. Freddy Peralta has a tall order today to save the Mets and get them back in the win column.
