After the Mets rallied with five runs in the bottom of the ninth inning for a 6-5 win in the opener, they jumped on top in the fourth inning and held on for a 3-1 win in the nightcap, giving them an emotional sweep of the two games against the Marlins in Citi Field on [...]
Please use this thread for both games today.
Please use this thread all week to comment on any Mets-specific topic you wish. From 2014-2020, the Mets were 72-52 against the Marlins. Yet, the perception existed that the Mets struggled against the Marlins. Now, maybe they didn't take them behind the woodshed like the Braves did. But given that the Mets finished under .500 [...]
Among starting pitchers, the Mets are fourth in the National League in ERA (3.67), third in WHIP (1.128) and 13th in Wins (27). All arguments about how wins don’t matter for SP aside, it’s tough to balance the first two numbers with the last one. Of course, there are plenty of contributing factors, most notably [...]
No, the site is not down. Just a weekend away in the mountains with crappy internet. Anyway, here's what happened: Friday - Nationals 2, Mets 1 - Another one-run loss that extended their rotten play to 2-12 in their last 14 games.

Afterwards he had a press conference where he disclosed that doctors have advised him not to throw his slider the rest of this season, fearing that's what caused his setback earlier this year. Syndergaard expressed [...]
After the biggest, ugliest of thunderstorms ruins your weekend plans and muddies your lawn, you can muster just the slightest of smirks at the site of a rainbow in the sky. And so this is how we're coming to view Aaron Loup, a middle reliever and a rainbow in a $#&%@storm. This once promising Mets [...]
The Mets entered this two-week stretch against the Dodgers and Giants not exactly firing on all cylinders. And they lost seven one-run games. It’s hard to wrap your head around it. But they consistently fall behind, they can’t buy a hit with RISP and the manager makes sub-optimal decisions. It’s not a winning formula. Thursday [...]
It’s a good time to be a Giants fan. They’re in first place because they lead the league in HR, are fifth in OPS with RISP and fourth in OPS with the bases loaded. It’s the type of offense we expected the Mets to have this season. Instead, New York is 12th in HR, 14th [...]
