EMBARASSING: Are the New York Mets STUCK with Freddy Peralta? | Mets Get BLOWN OUT Again

New York Mets fall apart as Freddy Peralta’s struggles deepen—are they now stuck with his contract? Trade deadline woes mount after another blowout loss, as Peralta’s declining performance and diminished value leave the Mets with tough decisions and few good options. Ryan Finkelstein breaks down the Mets’ uninspired offense, failed all-in gamble trading top prospects for Peralta, and the frustrating dilemma facing David Stearns. With Francisco Lindor’s late homer providing little consolation and the pitching staff underdelivering, questions arise about qualifying offers, possible trades, and the future outlook with Bo Bichette and Marcus Semien. Can the Mets salvage anything from this season, or is a roster shake-up inevitable?   Mandatory Credit: Nick Turchiaro-Imagn Images   Everydayer Club   If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
