Most fans put Tylor Megill and David Peterson in the same boat. They view them as okay depth starters but not anyone you want to write into ink for the 2024 starting rotation. That’s not an unreasonable take. However, my opinion is that Peterson is a solid back end of the rotation guy while Megill [...]
The Mets put two runners on base in the bottom of the ninth inning but couldn’t get the big hit and fell to the Reds, 3-2, Saturday night at Citi Field. It was the 34th one-run win of the year for the Reds, while the Mets have a 22-25 record in that split. It was [...]
Following a productive trade deadline in which the Mets offloaded the likes of Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer, the Mets now have a minor league system that is bursting at the seams with talent.

The Mets took three of the four games in the series and could have won the other game if their pen didn’t stink. Both starters benefitted from [...]
Binghamton is loaded with players who should don a Mets jersey in the next two-to-three years. Of course, we all know about the players the Mets got for the old pitchers and there are several other hitting prospects worth mentioning, as well. And the pitching staff is deep, too. So, it seemed like a good [...]
Joey Lucchesi pitched into the eighth inning and backed by a 3-RBI night from Pete Alonso, he led the Mets to a 7-1 win over the Diamondback Wednesday night at Citi Field. The Mets go for the series victory in a late afternoon game on Thursday. A lot of us wanted Lucchesi to be given [...]
