Entering this season, the Mets were expecting Michael Cuddyer to be their big offseason acquisition, hoping he would provide a high average, some power, and protection for Lucas Duda and David Wright. While Cuddyer has played well since the start of the second half, there is another offseason acquisition who has quietly put together a [...]
There must have been something in the cookies David Wright made for the Mets last night, as the team hit eight long balls tonight, and outslugged the Phillies to a victory. The Mets set team records for most extra base hits and home runs in a game. The Captain came back tonight and hit an [...]
Over the past two seasons, the Mets got a healthy helping of Eric Young Jr. in the lineup, as he played in 191 games. When it was time for a raise, the Mets decided that they would roll the dice with Michael Cuddyer, Curtis Granderson and Juan Lagares in the outfield, and were hoping that [...]
The Mets lost a tough game today, as they had the lead multiple times, but the Orioles were pesky and prevailed with a 5-4 victory. Noah Syndergaard's struggles on the road continued tonight, as he allowed eight hits, walked two in five innings. Too many base runners in a short period led to a short [...]
After a frustrating weekend against the Pirates, the Mets had a good game tonight, as they were able to take advantage of some sloppy Orioles baseball and win the game 5-1. Jacob deGrom continues to show why he is the ace in the rotation, as he pitched 7.2 innings and only allowed one run, which [...]
Throughout the entire season, the Mets were in search of a big bat, and it seemed that nothing was going to happen until the Detroit Tigers decided to become sellers, as they would trade David Price to the Toronto Blue Jays and deal Yoenis Cespedes to the Mets. With their new outfielder on board, the [...]
While the big league ball club is playing some of the best baseball it has played all year, the Mets Triple-A affiliate has two players that are reaching their potential pretty quickly. Dilson Herrera and Brandon Nimmo have been top prospects in the organization for a good amount of time, but they are putting it [...]
All good things must come to an end. The seven-game win streak came to an end tonight as the Rays defeated the Mets 5-4. Noah Syndergaard struggled tonight as he went four innings and gave up five runs. The first inning was brutal for the young pitcher, as four runs came across. Curtis Granderson continues [...]
The Mets blew the Marlins out of the water early on, as the offense provided plenty of runs for Bartolo Colon, and the veteran earned his 10th win of the season. Michael Conforto hit his first major league homer, which provided three runs in the second inning. Batting Conforto eighth should enable him to get [...]
The league better be taking notice of the New York Mets, as the team does not only feature one of the best rotations in baseball, but an offense and a bench that could be putting up some good numbers, or at least better than the numbers before. If new acquisitions Yoenis Cespedes, Kelly Johnson and [...]
What a game this turned out to be. Matt Harvey looked like a man on a mission tonight, as he went 7.2 innings, struck out 9 and allowed one run. He allowed his first hit in the sixth inning, and looked in complete control through his start. With two outs in the eighth inning, the [...]
Bartolo Colon did not give the Mets a good start tonight, as he had his shortest start as a Met, going 2 and 1/3 innings, letting up 10 hits and six runs. The Mets could not come back, and would lose 7-3. The Mets and Brewers announced that Carlos Gomez will most likely be heading [...]
