Mets can look to 1973 for blueprint to save their season

It’s going to be a rough finish to the season for the New York Mets unless they can turn things round. Boy, do they need to. And fast.

After spending June winning just 5 of their 26 games, the Mets are in a slump. Well, maybe slump isn’t the right word. The Mets are in a downward spiral. No, not quite it.

The Mets are in a complete and utter free fall much like an asteroid hurtling through our atmosphere at the speed of light with the only hope of stopping being a crash-landed into the Earth’s surface where ti can explode and quietly burn out.
