Mets Outfield Crisis Deepens | New York Mets News

The Mets are experimenting with a shorter role for Senga, and it’s surprisingly working—just as the outfield chaos continues. With Soto sidelined and rookie Carson Bench struggling early (a .175 average, .235 OBP), the Mets’ outfield is stuck in a “Juan Soto and friends” slump, echoing that SNL Cavaliers skit. Bench’s numbers aren’t great yet, but he’s young and still learning—this isn’t a failure, just a rough start. The real question? How long can they keep this losing formula alive? If Soto’s carrying the load, center field’s down, and Bench’s not ready to step up, when will the Mets finally pivot? The season’s outlook is grim—but maybe, just maybe, they’ll find their winning combo before it’s too late. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
