'Frustrated' Mets owner Steve Cohen addresses team's struggles, tweets a message to fans
On Monday morning, after the Mets were swept by the Pittsburgh Pirates in three games, the Mets owner voiced in his discontentment in a tweet to the team's fans.

Cohen said: "Tough stretch, no sugarcoating it. I didn't see this coming. I'm as frustrated as everybody else. We will get through this period. Our injured pitching will come back over the next few weeks. It is unlikely the team's hitting with RISP will continue at this weak pace. Keep the faith!"
Since June 12 before their home series with the Rays, the Mets were 21 games over .500 and held a 5.5 game lead in the National League East.
Heading into a three-game series with the Brewers, beginning Tuesday at Citi Field, the Mets are 48-37 and trail the Phillies by one and a half games in the division.

Despite boasting the three-headed monster of Francisco Lindor, Juan Soto and Pete Alonso at the top of their lineup, the Mets offense has largely been average through the first 85 games. They have scored the 13th-most runs and have the 18th-best team batting average in Major League Baseball.
One of the Mets' biggest flaws, as Cohen addressed, is their production with runners in scoring position. As a team, the Mets are batting .217 with runners in scoring position, the second-worst figure in the league.
Injuries have taken a toll on the Mets' starting rotation since before the season began when Sean Manaea and Frankie Montas went down with injuries in spring training. Montas returned last week, while Manaea is due to make his fifth rehab appearance early this week.
Kodai Senga is making progress back from a low-grade hamstring strain as a rehab assignment looms, while Tylor Megill is on the shelf with a right elbow strain. Griffin Canning was lost for the season with a ruptured Achilles tendon on a play against the Braves last week.
