Juan Soto’s inconsistency has surfaced again at inconvenient time for Mets
NY Post
The Mets are getting the bad version of Juan Soto again.
After coming up with just a single in Sunday’s 12-4 loss to the Giants, Soto is 8-for-56 with three extra-base hits in his past 15 games.
Even in Saturday’s win, when the rest of the top half of the lineup combined to pummel the Giants with 10 RBIs, Soto came up mostly empty.
After Soto dominated pretty much from start to finish in his lone season with the Yankees last year, he’s been much more prone to streakiness so far with the Mets.
Outside of a June in which Soto put up an OPS of 1.196, the right fielder has been very human the rest of the season.
And his production, not surprisingly, is crucial to whatever success the Mets have, since Soto’s OPS in wins is 1.038, compared to just .629 in losses.
