The New York Mets lost to the Miami Marlins 4-0 on Sunday, 28 September 2025, ending Dominican slugger Juan Soto\u2019s chance at reaching the 40-40 mark this season. The loss to the Marlins killed the Mets’ hope to reach the 2025 season playoffs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reporting on the loss, MLB stated:
\u201cOver 64 seasons, the Mets have endured some of the most precipitous collapses in Major League history. In 2007, they blew a seven-game lead with 17 to play, failing to make the playoffs with one of the league\u2019s most talented rosters. In 2008, they again crashed out of the playoff race on the season\u2019s final day. To this day, the members of those teams carry the weight of their failures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“This year was supposed to be different. A roster that made it to within two games of the World Series last October, then added Soto on a record-setting $765 million contract, was meant to make the playoffs with ease. One of the most expensive teams in MLB history was never supposed to flop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBut over 162 games, the Mets proved that they were not what they appeared to be. In the second half, as the Mets lost game after game, losing leads with regularity, the possibility of falling short grew increasingly real. It didn\u2019t matter that the Reds and other would-be contenders were also playing poorly. All that mattered was what the Mets did.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOr, more accurately, what the Mets never did enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou\u2019ve got to win,\u201d Mendoza said. \u201cIt\u2019s as simple as that: You\u2019ve got to win. And until we [do], it\u2019s going to be attached to all of us.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
