The 2020 New York Mets season was the franchise's 59th season and the team's 12th season at Citi Field. The team hired Carlos Beltrán to be their manager in November 2019, however in the wake of the Houston Astros sign stealing scandal, on January 16, 2020, Beltrán and the Mets agreed to part ways.[1] On January 24, 2020, Luis Rojas was hired as the Mets manager.[2] The season is also the last season to have Fred Wilpon as the team's majority owner before being sold to billionaire hedge fund manager Steve Cohen.
On March 12, 2020, MLB announced that because of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the start of the regular season would be delayed by at least two weeks in addition to the remainder of spring training being cancelled.[3] Four days later, it was announced that the start of the season would be pushed back indefinitely due to the recommendation made by the CDC restricting large public events.[4] On June 23, commissioner Rob Manfred unilaterally implemented a 60-game season. Players reported to training camps on July 1 in order to resume spring training and prepare for a July 24 Opening Day.[5]
On September 23, the team suffered its 31st loss, sealing their third losing season in four years. On September 26, the Mets were eliminated from playoff contention in a 4–3 loss to the Washington Nationals, continuing a four-year-long playoff drought. The Mets finished the regular season 26–34, giving them a last place finish as a result of a 4–6 record against the Washington Nationals, who also went 26–34.[6] This was the first season since 2003 where the Mets finished last place in the National League East.
The Mets led MLB in batting average (.272) and OPS+ (122), however they also grounded into the most double plays (53, tied with the Milwaukee Brewers) and had the most runners left on base (445).[7]
