Everything with Brett Baty is a small sample. But coming into this season, one of my beliefs was that the Mets needed to be less reliant on “small sample!” and instead look to pull the plug sooner on guys who didn’t get the job done. My hope is that no one on the club would [...]
A year ago, the Mets were expecting a 95+ win season and came home from a 10-game West Coast trip that they went 7-3 on to bring their record to 14-9 for the year. The team wasn’t playing all that well but the success out west, combined with the hope that the veteran pitchers would [...]
It's been a bit of a roller coaster ride here for the Mets in 2024. We had the 0-5 start, followed by winning 12 of the next 15 and then dropping three straight while scoring just three runs in 27 innings. And all of this happened while playing teams over .500 in the first 21 [...]
After taking two of three games from the Dodgers, the Mets had to salvage this closeout game against the Giants to avoid a losing road trip. And win they did. Sean Manaea appeared to be on life support several times but somehow managed to finagle is way out of all jams until he was pulled [...]

It was too much Logan Webb, as the Giants righty shut out the Mets for eight innings in a 5-1 victory for the Giants Tuesday night in San Francisco. The loss snaps the Mets’ streak of winning five straight series and puts them on a three-game losing streak. The Mets loaded up their lineup with [...]

The Mets have hundreds of players in their system and we, as an internet community, tend to only focus on 50 or less of the “prospects” in that group. I keep a running tab of rankings and am constantly adjusting players up and down the rankings as seasons move along. The Mets’ seventh round pick [...]
Jose Quintana didn’t have it tonight and he put the Mets in an early hole from which they could not recover, as they lost the opener of a three-game series to the Giants, 5-2 Monday night in San Francisco. Quintana allowed seven hits and three walks in his five-plus innings, which the Giants turned into [...]

In yesterday’s Game Chatter we talked some about the relative merits of DJ Stewart and Tyrone Taylor. Clearly, Taylor is the better defensive player. But the question is if Stewart’s big advantage on offense makes up for his deficit in defense. If this was a Presidential debate, people would accuse me of being a flip-flopper [...]
