• Source: 2023 New York Mets season

      • The 2023 New York Mets season was the franchise's 62nd season in Major League Baseball, their 15th at Citi Field, and their third under majority owner Steve Cohen.
      The Mets entered the 2023 season with high expectations after finishing the 2022 season with a 101–61 record. However, the season was a major disappointment with injuries to key players, poor performances from players such as Starling Marte, Max Scherzer, and Jeff McNeil, and controversy within the organization and around players. The Mets fell below .500 in early June and became sellers on the August 1st trade deadline. On September 21, the Mets sealed their fifth losing season in seven years when they suffered their 82nd loss of the year, 5–4, to the Philadelphia Phillies. In doing so, New York became the fourth team in Major League history to suffer a losing season one year after winning 100+ games, joining the 1986 Cardinals, the 1971 Reds, and the 1932 Cardinals.
      On the following day, September 22, the Mets were eliminated from playoff contention for the sixth time in seven seasons. The Mets finished the regular season 75–87, giving them a fourth-place finish. On October 1, the Mets announced one year after Buck Showalter won NL Manager of the Year, that they had fired Showalter as manager following the season. On October 5, Billy Eppler would resign as their general manager.
