NYC mayor Zohran Mamdani laughs off 'Curse of the Mambino' as cause of Mets streak

There are plenty of places to assign blame for the New York Mets’ 11-game losing streak.As The Athletic’s Eno Sarris noted on Tuesday, “they’ve lost games due to poor starting pitching (they’ve given up more than seven runs five times), lack of offense (they’ve scored fewer than three runs in all but two games), iffy relief work (their bullpen has an ERA over five in the last two weeks), and maybe even poor managing (depending on how you feel about the decision to pitch to Nico Hoerner in their loss on Sunday).”Advertisement
