It’s not even May, and the Mets are already being discussed as sellers. What started as frustration over poor play has quickly escalated into conversations about the trade deadline, long-term direction, and whether this season is already lost beyond repair.

They also examine the broader failures that led to this point, from roster construction to player development, and question whether any meaningful turnaround is even possible given how deep the issues run.
