London Series G2
Mets’ starting pitching here in 2024 has been pretty bad. As a team, prior to Sunday morning’s start in London, the team’s SP were 11-22 with a 4.52 ERA. And that’s with Citi Field playing as an extreme pitcher’s park. That raw ERA ranked 23rd in the majors and if we had ERA+ in this [...]
The Phillies jumped the Mets for six runs in the fourth inning and cruised to a 7-2 win Saturday afternoon in the first of two games between the clubs played in a soccer stadium in London. The loss snapped a three-game winning streak for the Mets. Sean Manaea started for the Mets and looked good [...]
London Series G1
Good morning, Guvnor! Yeah, corny, I know, but when in London… My Dick Van Dyke/bad Cockney accent aside, the Mets begin their whirlwind two-game set in the Motherland on a high note. Having swept the Washington Nationals before embarking on their ‘cross-pond journey, the Mets touched down at Heathrow tied for third place in the [...]
Most of us were pretty happy when the Mets signed J.D. Martinez near the end of Spring Training. Yes, it was unfortunate for Mark Vientos – an issue compounded by the Mets sending him to the minors at the start of the year while Martinez worked his way into shape – but it seemed like [...]

Brian: Here are two 19-year-old shortstops in Lo-A for your consideration: Player A: .266/.345/.404, .329 BABIP, 10.4 BB%, 23.3 K%, .348 wOBA, 105 wRC+ Player B: .267/.332/.441, .294 BABIP, 6,7 BB%, 16.1 K%, .365 wOBA, 122 wRC+ They’re fairly similar but my [...]
There have been many under-performing hitters in the Mets' lineup in 2024. One of them has been Jeff McNeil. It was only two seasons ago when McNeil finished the 2022 season with a .326 average, which not only won him the National League batting title, but it was also tops in Major League Baseball as [...]
Luis Torrens blasted two homers to back an excellent outing by Luis Severino, lifting the Mets to a 9-1 victory and a three-game sweep of the Nationals Wednesday in Washington. The Mets pulled to within a half a game of the third-place Nats. Torrens opened the scoring with a homer to right center with two [...]
