On Sunday, the New York Mets lost both of their games to the Colorado Rockies at Citi Field.
They were also swept in the three-game series.
Despite a high-profile roster, the Mets have been the worst team in the MLB to start to the 2026 season.

Ahead of their series with the Nationals, the team announced that they had made a roster move.
Anthony DiComo of MLB.com wrote: “The Mets have promoted A.J. Ewing to Triple-A Syracuse. Ewing, the team’s No. 3-ranked prospect, demolished Double-A pitching with a .349/.481/.571 slash line, two home runs, six doubles, a triple and 12 steals in 18 games. Last year, Ewing ranked fourth in MiLB with 70 steals.”
