Jose Iglesias' perspective on why the Mets are struggling to replicate the 'Amazing' synergy they had in 2024, according to him, is due to certain unaccounted factors.
The New York Mets have faced a challenging second half of the season, battling a lack of dependable starting pitching and a series of injuries. In June, the team's star shortstop, Francisco Lindor, experienced a dip in form, adding to the teams' woes. However, there seems to be a glimmer of hope as Lindor's play has improved significantly in July. The teams have also been impacted by the absence of key players during the early part of the season. In April, both Juan Soto and Brandon Nimmo were missing from the lineup. But now, the teams are playing with a full roster, with both players back in action. The teams' performance has shown marked improvement in July, with fewer injuries and less underperformance compared to the second half of the season. This improvement is evident in the play of Pete Alonso, who struggled in May but has shown signs of a recovery in July. The teams' starting pitching, which faced numerous challenges in the second half, has also shown improvement in July. The Mets have encountered fewer challenges and have received better performance from their starting pitchers during this month. Despite the improvements, the team has still encountered underperformance from several players during the second half of the season. It remains to be seen if the teams can maintain their July form and overcome these challenges to secure a strong finish to the season.
