This statistic is a brutal one for the Mets.

The New York Mets are stuck in a brutal slump, having dropped seven straight games to fall to the bottom of the NL East with a 7-11 record. While any losing streak is painful, a shocking statistic reveals just how anemic their offense has truly become.

Over the last seven games, the entire Mets lineup has managed to score only 10 runs. For perspective, that’s fewer runs than two individual players—Byron Buxton and Dansby Swanson, who each have 11—have scored in the same span. Brice Turang has also crossed the plate 10 times, matching the entire Mets team output.

Breaking down the numbers paints a grim picture: since April 8th, the Mets' run production reads 2, 1, 0, 6, 0, 0, and 1. They've been shut out three times in this stretch, a dramatic fall from their once-respectable 7-4 start.

The timing couldn't be worse, as the team is currently navigating the absence of star Juan Soto, who is recovering from a calf issue. While Francisco Lindor provided a brief spark with a solo homer against the Dodgers on Tuesday, one swing isn't enough to reverse this trend. For the Mets to climb out of this hole, they need a complete offensive revival—and fast.
