The 2022 Mets seemed to thrive on doing the little things right through most of their 101-win season, which saw a return to the playoffs for the first time since ’16.
Fast forward one year and the Mets have limped out to a 36–44 record and are well outside of the realistic playoff picture.
Coming off an encouraging 7–2 win over the Brewers on Tuesday and a Wednesday press conference in which team owner Steve Cohen answered for some of the team's 2023 struggles, New York had yet another mistake-filled game, falling to Milwaukee 5–2. The mistakes weren’t limited to just on the field either.
