With the Chicago Cubs and Oakland Athletics completing a blockbuster trade this past Friday, the Major League Baseball trading season is underway. So far, some key moves have been Jeff Samardzija and Jason Hammel being sent from the Cubs to the A’s, and Brandon McCarthy being traded to the New York Yankees for Vidal Nuno. [...]
Jeremy Hefner is doing well in his Tommy John rehab…if anybody cares. Not to be rude, but it seems that nobody really cares about Hefner and his Tommy John surgery. When Matt Harvey had the same surgery, all eyes were on him (and they still are). But Hefner has seems to have completely fallen under [...]
Tonight, the New York Mets and the Oakland Athletics play game two of a two game series at Citi Field. Last night when former Athletic Bartolo Colon pitched against former Met Scott Kazmir, the Mets beat the A’s 10-1. Tonight, the Mets will look too sweep the series against the A’s, and will send Zack [...]
The Mets have not been in the post season since 2006 and they have not had a winning record since 2008. Since 2008, the Mets have gone through two managers and two GM’s. Every season since ‘08, Mets fans have gotten their hopes up before the season began and then had them crushed by the [...]
More than one third of the Major League Baseball Season has been played and the one thing the Mets have shown is how much the they need to improve in order to contend. Right now, the Mets are 28-30, which is not where they want to be. It seems that with the current roster, the [...]
What do Jacoby Ellsbury, Shin-Soo Choo, Nelson Cruz, Jhonny Peralta, Grant Balfour, and Fernando Rodney all have in common? They were all linked to the Mets at some point this past offseason! Yes, all six players were thought to sign with the club at one point or another, but none of them did. Was this [...]
The Toronto Blue Jays and the New York Mets are off to slow starts this season. The Mets main problem is their lack of a shortstop and consistent bullpen, while the Blue Jays seem to be struggling on all cylinders. Earlier this week, the Blue Jays made public the fact that they are shopping names [...]
The Mets have been in a slip as of late, but there is still hope for them to pick themselves up and compete within the division. Entering the Subway Series, the Mets were 17-19 and they were scoring very few runs. But they were able to beat the Yankees in an amazing game one, and [...]
The Mets have been around for 52 years, and they have had a lot to celebrate. They won the World Series twice and the National League pennant four times. But there is more to celebrate than just that, especially on a day like today. Although it may seem like an average day, the Mets have [...]
The first month of the MLB regular season has come to an end, and the Mets have finished with an above .500 record. Although it got off to a rough start, the Mets began to emerge as threat despite their struggles offensively. So what is to come in the month of May for the Mets? [...]
“Real New Yorkers are Mets fans,” are the most remembered words by Mets new outfielder Curtis Granderson during his press conference this past offseason. Granderson entered 2014 with high expectations, and has seemed to fail each and every one of them. Granderson has a batting average well below .200 after playing in 19 of the [...]
Travis d’Arnaud is beginning to get hot, but he is still having a terrible start to his first season in the majors. As of Wednesday morning, d’Arnaud is hitting .154 with one home run. This does not mean that d’Arnaud should be traded or released, but the Mets do need to find a viable catcher [...]
