The New York Mets are facing a challenging season as star shortstop Francisco Lindor is expected to return from injury in the third week of June. However, the team is grappling with significant issues, including one of the worst offensive performances in Major League Baseball, ranking 29th with a .652 OPS. Additionally, the Mets have multiple starting pitchers they are hesitant to use without an opener and are facing a tougher schedule ahead.
