The Mets went 5-1 this week amid a torrid hot streak against scuffling teams that saw them go from fading away to right in the Wild Card mix. The hitting meter is rather deceptive this week and makes the offense look worse than it has been. It’s a feast or famine meter, where those who are hitting well are hitting very well and those who are hitting poorly—mostly the players with the fewest at-bats—are hitting very poorly.

Robinson Cano was one of the players hitting very well this week until his injury.
