Forty percent of the home schedule complete (geez, that was fast), let's check in on the updated All-Time Citi Field Met Regular-Season Home Run Leaders. Active Mets in ALL CAPS.

2. CONFORTO 57
3. Wright 49
4. Granderson 38
5. Flores 37

29. R. RIVERA 8
Cespedes added two in 2020 before melting into the crowd/going on the restricted list. Lagares is polishing his Gold Glove at the Alternate Site by the sea. If you wish to consider them current Mets and therefore meritorious of capitalization, feel free to upper-case their respective cases. (Hell, Wright is still more or less under contract through this season.)
Current Mets further down the chart...
CANO 6 (tied for 34th with six others)
NIDO 5 (tied for 41st with three others)
DEGROM, MATZ, SYNDERGAARD 2 (tied for 58th with thirteen others)
GUILLORME, LUGO 1 (tied for 74th with twenty-four others)
The next Met to hit a first home run as a Met at Citi Field will become the 100th Met to hit a home run at Citi Field. One-third of the way into this truncated season and no Met among the thus far fifteen new-for-2020 Mets (seven of them position players) has hit a first home run as a Met, home or away.
