The New York Mets have started the 2025 season with an impressive record of 17 wins and 7 losses, putting them at the top of the National League East Division. This start matches one of the best starts in the team’s recent history, generating excitement among Hispanic fans in the United States.
First baseman Pete Alonso has been instrumental in this early season. With a .365 batting average, 5 home runs and 21 RBIs in 18 games, Alonso leads the team in several offensive categories. His 1.205 OPS and 230 wRC+ place him among the top hitters in MLB. Although superstars Juan Soto and Francisco Lindor have not reached their peak performance, the offense has been supported by players such as Luisangel Acuña, who maintains a .289 batting average, and Starling Marte, contributing experience and consistency at the plate.

The pitching rotation is another pillar in this successful start for the New York Mets.
Kodai Senga has shined with an ERA of 0.79, 20 strikeouts and a WHIP of 0.97 in his first few starts.
