The 15 year MLB veteran had been a strong performer earlier in his career, especially with Toronto, where he was a six-time All-Star. But his production had dropped off radically as he aged. The 37 year-old had been released by the [...]

Another day, another blown Jacob deGrom start. The mighty San Diego Padres -- generally thought to be the worst team in the National League coming into the season; that's a big joke now -- arrived at Citi Field and took advantage of some shoddy Mets fielding and their by now customarily vapid offense to take [...]

The Mets seemed destined to lose this game until Yankees closer Aroldis Chapman entered in the ninth and couldn't find the strike zone.
