The New York Mets are truly on the precipice of being a really good team. There is still a good deal of gnashing of teeth over each specific game, but the Mets have demonstrated over the last two months they belong in the World Series conversation. Last year, Billy Wagner got 284 votes for the [...]
As usual, the team with the most home runs win. The Braves cracked four home runs en route to a 9-2 shellacking of the Mets Sunday afternoon at Citi Feld. The two teams split their four-game series, with the Braves winning the last two. Just like Tylor Megill did on Saturday, David Peterson cruised thru [...]

Every now and then you stumble across something great on the internet. One of my favorite non-sports things was something that came out several years ago, a time-lapse video showing how the borders of Europe have changed throughout the years. That video came to mind when thinking about the Mets’ bullpen. To be sure, it’s [...]
It started off good for Tylor Megill but ended up in predictable lousiness as the Mets fell to the Braves, 4-0, Saturday afternoon at Citi Field. The loss snapped the club’s five-game winning streak and was also the Braves’ first win after losing six-straight games. Megill retired the first 10 batters he faced but then [...]

Say one thing for the 2024 Mets, say they keep it interesting. The team hit what could have been the low point of their season as they dropped to 10+ games below .500 when the calendar flipped from May to June. In the process they somehow looked even worse than the mediocre team most expected [...]
The Mets smacked three home runs in the third inning to give Kodai Senga all the runs he’d need in his debut start of the 2024 season, as the Mets won their fifth-straight game, 8-4, over the Braves Friday night at Citi Field. With the win, the Mets moved half a game in front of [...]

The Mets need starting pitching and the Tigers’ Tarik Skubal has been mentioned as being on the trading block. It’s hard for me to believe they would actually deal one of the top young pitchers in the game but perhaps where there’s smoke there will be a fire. The Mets were willing to spend $350 [...]
The return of Francisco Alvarez and the subtraction of Starling Marte has made a world of difference for the Mets' defense. Alvarez replaced bad defenders, while Tyrone Taylor has been a massive upgrade in the outfield. Here are the numbers: The Mets currently rank 25th in the majors with -13 Defensive Runs Saved. They haven’t [...]
