Francisco Lindor, Pete Alonso, Michael Conforto, Jeff McNeil, James McCann, and Dom Smith have a COMBINED 5.0 fWAR and 99 wRC+ through 119 games in 2021. Those 6 players were worth a combined 8.6 fWAR in a 60 game season last year (23.2 fWAR/162 games) and hit for 133 wRC+

Post Body

Existence is pain.

Whether it's an organizational failure or just a bunch of guys deciding to simultaneously and coincidentally all have bad seasons in the same year, the 2021 Mets position players who were supposed to combine to be an above-average offensive team have largely fizzled. It's hard to know who to point the finger at for the team's collective failure to hit, but I do think it's fair to say this isn't (at least mostly) a failure of roster construction. The Mets put a lot of talented guys onto the 2021 roster and they're just...not playing like talented guys this year.
