Exclusive | Eric Chavez tells The Post what’s behind Mets’ brutal hitting woes

As the Mets lineup woes continue, Eric Chavez carries a heavy burden trying to find answers. 

Chavez, one of the team’s two hitting coaches — he shares the position with the more analytics-minded Jeremy Barnes — is a self-proclaimed overreactor who wants things fixed yesterday. But he’s also come to understand the value of patience. 

The Mets, with 13 losses in 16 games, have underperformed lately in all departments.

The most inexplicable aspect might be the lineup given the caliber of players, starting with Francisco Lindor, Juan Soto and Pete Alonso.
