Don’t miss Mike Puma’s text messages from Queens and beyond — he’s giving Sports+ subscribers the inside buzz on the Mets.

The worst team in baseball since Friday the 13th of June caught a rare break when Tuesday night’s game versus the consistently feisty and perennially overachieving Brewers was postponed. The surprise cancellation spared the sagging Mets another potential loss, and for 18 more hours halted the worst kind of negative momentum an alleged playoff team could possibly have.

The second straight day off might also help the team from Queens forget some of what’s gone wrong the past 19 days, when they mysteriously transformed from close to unbeatable to baseball’s most beatable team.

No one could have foreseen such a sudden slump. It’s not just one thing, it’s everything.

Everyone but the $765 million man Juan Soto, who is back to being himself, is struggling at bat.
