The Mets had 11 players with 197 or more PA in 2019, compared to 13 in both 2018 and 2017. And the player with the 12th-most PA in the just-completed season checked in with 151. In the two previous seasons,…
During Spring Training the debate was whether the Mets should keep Pete Alonso down for three weeks to gain the extra year of control. My position then was that if the Mets determine that he’s one of their best 25…
Today could be the last start that Zack Wheeler makes for the Mets. If so, it’s fitting that it will be against the Marlins, the team that he’s done his best work against. Lifetime, Wheeler is 7-2 with a 1.77…

So many times we talk about a player on a hot streak and we’ll use the phrase, “the hits are falling in.” Right now we’ve got a guy on a hot streak with a sub-.300 BABIP. Michael Conforto in his…
J.D. Davis has played 400 innings in left field so far this season. Looking at all players in MLB to log at least 300 innings in left, we see he ranks tied for 35th in DRS with a (-7) mark…
