PITTSBURGH — From deciding to meet to dead meat, the Mets’ weekend by the Three Rivers couldn’t have proceeded much worse. Rule No. 1 for players only meetings is generally to hold them a night before your ace is scheduled to pitch. But the Mets barely have five pitchers to fill out a starting rotation these days, never mind an ace.

After dropping 12 of their last 15 games and losing the series against the Pirates, the Mets held a team meeting.

Mike Puma of the New York Post reported the Mets held a players-only meeting in the clubhouse following Saturday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates after dropping the first two contests in the series.

After an ugly weekend in Pittsburgh, Mets owner Steve Cohen has taken to social media to share his frustrations over his team’s losing stretch. Cohen posted on X Monday morning after the Mets were outscored 30-4 in three games against the Pirates.

New York Mets owner Steve Cohen said he's "as frustrated as everybody else" on the heels of a sweep at the hands of the Pittsburgh Pirates.
