Two things are true about Juan Soto’s start with the NY Mets after 20 games

5 days ago | risingapple.com | Tim Boyle

Both things are true. Nobody will live under a tighter microscope in New York sports than Juan Soto. Leaving the New York Yankees for the New York Mets made it a large enough story. Tack on 765 million more reasons with his record-breaking contract and it’s no surprise why he’s going to be an everyday talking point among sports fans. It only took 18 games before Mets “fans” began to turn.

You don’t get points for creativity with MLB contracts, but the San Diego Padres shouldn’t care much about that anyway. They’re winning games and doing it after an offseason that seemed to have them interested in shedding payroll. They made a few lighter additions to the ball club, one of which involved signing a player whose name somewhat unexpectedly appeared in offseason New York Mets rumors.

We expected so much more from these guys. Juan Soto stepped in one in Wednesday’s finale against the Minnesota Twins. A game that could even have his biggest defenders thinking twice about crawling up the hill they plan to die on, the word “disappointing” isn’t too outrageous to describe his first 18 games with the New York Mets.

Through 18 games Juan Soto's .250 average with three home runs and seven extra base hits is simply not good enough. Baseball fans tend to get a bit too caught up in early season sample sizes, but New York Mets fans have every right to be upset with the way Juan Soto has kicked off his tenure in orange and blue. Soto finished the team’s six game road trip going 0 for 5 with three strikeouts and a game changing double-play with the bases loaded and one out in the fifth.

The New York Mets, already navigating the early season with a platoon in center field between Tyrone Taylor and the defensively gifted José Siri, now face a significant void. Siri, acquired for his elite speed and defensive prowess, unfortunately, suffered a fractured left tibia, leaving an indefinite timeline for his return. This unexpected setback has forced the Mets to explore internal options to cover the crucial center field position.
Jose Siri injury puts a NY Mets roster flaw on full display

All stick and no glove makes for a tough solution when you lose a player. It’s going to be a while before we see Jose Siri play another game for the New York Mets. A broken leg will knock him out of action for several months, pushing Tyrone Taylor into an everyday role. Like, literally every day. The team decided to forego adding anyone to their roster on Tuesday, playing a man down instead. Taylor took his proper place in center field as we awaited the next roster move.

Out of proportion NY Mets drama with Juan Soto is a pink elephant in the room

It's not as big of a deal as it became. There’s an elephant in the room with the New York Mets right now but we need to clarify some things first. In first place 16 games into the season with very little drama, the NY Post managed to blow some Juan Soto comments completely out of proportion.
