This is the fourth entry in our prospect series, where we’re counting down the top 50 prospects for the Mets. Four people were involved in this project and what you see is a group consensus, not the results of one person. You can view 42-39 if you have not already seen it. Here are the next four: [...]
We all know the story, and we all remember the headlines. We probably remember the frustration we felt, like the wind was knocked from our guts when we heard that Jenrry Mejia would be suspended a second time, resulting in a 162 game suspension. Although he will not be back until August next season, there [...]
The 2015-2016 offseason is off and running, as we have seen the Red Sox acquire Craig Kimbrel, while the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim acquired Andrelton Simmons from the Atlanta Braves. As for the New York Mets, multiple reports came out saying that the Mets were engaged in some talks during the GM Meetings, but [...]
We heard the name of the tall, right-handed pitcher who came over from the Toronto Blue Jays in the R.A. Dickey trade. Anticipation within the Mets fan base mounted when hearing about Noah Syndergaard’s fastball and stuff; meanwhile most of us never saw the guy throw a pitch. As we followed his impressive 2013 campaign [...]
Last night’s game was not an easy one to watch. It seemed like the kind of game where three runs was going to be enough for the Mets to win the game. Michael Conforto’s two homeruns and Curtis Granderson’s RBI sacrifice fly provided the three runs for the Mets in Game 4, but more runs [...]
Sending a message to players is important to do if there are individuals who think they are above the team. The Mets have had many ups and downs with one of their young starting pitchers throughout the past couple of seasons, whether it was because of stuff posted on social media, comments made to the [...]
Last night’s game had to leave emotions of anger and frustration for both the Mets and their fans. With Ruben Tejada getting taken out by Chase Utley, the Mets lost their starting shortstop and the game. Social media was buzzing about this slide, as posts came out defending Utley for his hard play, while many [...]
It would be too easy to overreact with disgust after watching last night’s game. Max Scherzer was absolutely dominant (as we all know by now). Granted it may not have been the starting lineup, but it is a pretty dismal performance when you are one error away from having a perfect game tossed against you. [...]
Yesterday was a day when New York Mets fans applauded in front of the radio or TV as the team clinched a playoff spot for the first time since 2006. It was a day of celebration, yet there is anxiety forming when we look at the future that awaits the Mets. Back in 2006, the [...]
With most of the Mets starting lineup being made up of some new faces, veterans and homeruns, it has been easy to overlook the body of work Michael Conforto has provided the Mets this season. It started when the Mets were struggling offensively. The team could not put crooked numbers on the board, and the [...]
The Kansas City Royals are starting to become a model organization in the American League, as they have an 11 game lead over the second place Minnesota Twins, and are on their way to a deep October run. Last year’s strength was their bullpen, which featured a three-headed monster in Wade Davis, Kelvin Herrera and [...]
With all the talk about Matt Harvey and innings limits yesterday, the Mets were lucky to get away from that as the game against the Miami Marlins went according to plan. Bartolo Colon stole the show by pitching a complete game shutout, and he has been pitching awfully well the past couple of starts. Will [...]
