The 2026 New York Mets are presently living proof that the best data analytics and AI can’t reliably build an offensive juggernaut. As of this writing, the 2026 Mets are on a 9 game skid in which they’ve scored just 16 runs (1.8 per game), and have been shutout 3 times.
The Mets first 3 batters in the lineup last night had batting averages of .158, .226 and .200.
