Mets Fall Out Of Playoff Spot With 8th Straight Loss

After Saturday's heartbreaking 3-2 loss to the Rangers, the New York Mets have now dropped eight straight games — their worst stretch since 2018. Rookie Brandon Sproat threw six strong, scoreless innings in his Citi Field debut, and Juan Soto smashed his 40th home run of the season, but the bullpen faltered late. Edwin Díaz couldn't close it out, giving up the go-ahead hit in the 9th to Wyatt Langford. With the loss, the Mets' lead in the NL wild-card race has evaporated: they now trail the Giants in the loss column and no longer control their postseason destiny. We break down what went wrong, look at the standings and scenarios, and assess what's left for this roster with the regular season winding down.
