Someone named Michael Schwab posted on X the following: I'm hearing a deal is in place to send Max Scherzer to the Texas Rangers, contingent on if he wavies his no-trade clause, per sources familiar with the conversations. Further down in the tweet someone said: Bro throwing a Hail Mary. Acting like he got sources [...]
Several of you have reached out to me in the last week or so about issues you are having logging in to the site. It seems that this is very Mac-related in terms of who is affected. Regardless, it’s an issue that you shouldn’t have and one that’s inconvenient to me, too. I’m not a [...]
On Friday, loyal commenter Name posted all of the deadline deals involving the Mets and prospects in the time frame of 2008-2019 and found that the overwhelming number of prospects moved in these deals didn’t do very much in the majors. It was a warning not to expect much from what the Mets received when [...]
Pete Alonso drove in all of the Mets’ runs with two homers to back seven strong innings from Max Scherzer to lead the way in a 5-1 win over the Nationals Friday night at Citi Field. The win upped the Mets’ record in July to 13-8. It was also just their 11th win in 35 [...]
It's official - the Mets are sellers. The club dealt its closer David Robertson to the division-rival Marlins in exchange for two minor leaguers late Thursday night. Coming to the Mets are 2B Marco Vargas and C Ronald Hernandez, with both of those players in short-season ball in the FCL with the Marlins prior to [...]
The Mets rallied for two runs in the eighth inning, one before and one after a 90-minute weather delay, to rally to defeat the Nationals, 2-1, Thursday night at Citi Field. Kodai Senga started and pitched very but was on the short side of things, having allowed a solo run in his six innings of [...]
Justin Verlander missed the first five weeks of the season and then was nothing special immediately upon his return to action in 2023. Yet despite that awful beginning to his Mets career, Verlander somehow has a 1.6 fWAR and a 1.9 rWAR this season. That just goes to show how good he’s been over his [...]
Once again, the Mets’ offense wasn’t up for the challenge. Combined with some shaky defense, the end result was a 3-1 loss to the Yankees Wednesday night in the Bronx. The Mets split the season series, 2-2. Jose Quintana seemed to be in constant danger but he gave the Mets six innings and a chance [...]
Justin Verlander hurled six scoreless innings while Pete Alonso hit two homers and drove in five runs, leading to a 9-3 Mets win over the Yankees in the Bronx Tuesday night. Alonso gave the Mets a rare first inning run, as he followed up a Brandon Nimmo double with an RBI single to give the [...]
It was another lifeless offensive performance for the Mets, who were limited to one run by seven Boston pitchers in what was a bullpen game. The final was a 6-1 loss Sunday night in Fenway. A four-run third inning knocked Carlos Carrasco out of the game and essentially put this one in the loss column [...]
Last year the Mets were terrific in the regular season, winning 101 games, which was the second-most in franchise history. That still means they lost 61 times. Losing is part of the game. You can have games where you lose in a frustrating fashion. But shouldn’t that mean there are games where you just, you [...]
The Mets won the completion of the suspended game but fell short in the nightcap, splitting the first two games of the series with the Red Sox in Boston Saturday. The Mets held a 4-3 lead when play was suspended Friday, with Brandon Nimmo and Daniel Vogelbach hitting two-run homers in the third and fourth [...]
