Mets Rally, Rockies Collapse & Skenes Shines: MLB Second Half Heats Up

Mets Rally, Rockies Collapse & Skenes Shines MLB Second Half Heats Up

MLB's Mets' Mid-Season Surge: Soto & Nimmo Wake the Offense


The New York Mets enter a crucial second-half stretch riding momentum thanks to resurgent performances from Juan Soto and Brandon Nimmo:

  • Soto has heated up, but is still batting a disappointing .256 for the $765 Million he is being paid. After an All Star snub, some wonder if it may be the motivation he needs to earn his salary in the second half of the season.

  • Nimmo’s Season: He has continued to deliver the past month plus, getting back to out dueling Soto, including a clutch sac fly that helped seal the win tonight.

  • Team Context: The Mets are now just a half-game back in the NL East, with their offense picking back up production to early season form.


Rockies on Record Pace for Futility


Meanwhile in Denver, the Colorado Rockies are staring down history—but for all the wrong reasons:

  • Their 24–76 start marks the worst 100-game stretch since 1916, making them the first team in over century (1916 Philadelphia Athletics) to lose over 75 of their first 100.

  • This season ranks among the worst ever: historically compared with the lowest modern-era winning percentages—and it’s not just a slow start, it’s a historic collapse.


MLB fans and analysts continue to debate whether this is "rock bottom" — but the team has at least picked up 2 of 4 games since the break, giving slim hope for a non historically bad season amidst the turmoil.


Paul Skenes Dominates After All-Star Nod


In Pittsburgh, Paul Skenes returned strong from the All-Star break:

  • He delivered six scoreless innings, striking out six and allowing just three hits and one walk in a dominant 3–0 win over the league leading Tigers.

  • His performance helped reverse a Pirates post break skid and gave him his 5th win of the season, all while showcasing his elite control and poise.
