Editor's Note: For the remainder of the regular season, Mets360 will be a free site, one open to everyone. They’ve been a membership site since January of 2021 and will be so once again in October. So, if you like the Mets and great Mets analysis, check out the site for the next two months.

After winning back-to-back games, the Mets are now 4-10 in the month of August. Their poor record is due to a variety of reasons but the three most likely culprits are facing good teams in the Orioles and Braves, a completely-expected swoon after the trade-deadline selloff and the remaining players on the team just not being that good.
Still, it was surprising to me to see the splits for the team in the month of August. They have four hitters with an .800 or better OPS and Daniel Vogelbach checks in with a .773 mark. Those five have amassed 218 PA. The problem is everyone else besides those five guys. Danny Mendick has the next-best OPS with a .625 mark and he’s the only one to even reach .600 this month. They have 276 PA of just awful production.
