The New York Mets are currently holding the worst record in the Major League baseball team, with a record-breaking season. The team's president of baseball operations, David Stearns, acknowledged the need to consider the risk assessment of injured players, particularly players with checkered injury histories like Jorge Polanco and Luis Robert Jr. who have gotten hurt, exacerbating an already poor performance from the team's lineup. The Mets have scored the fewest runs and will feature rookies Carson Benge and A.J. Ewing in the outfield, despite little time at Triple-A and Robert's injury. Stearn insisted that the team is not close to trading away veteran players and remains confident in their ability to rightize the season. He also reiterated that there are no plans to make a change at manager Carlos Mendoza.
