It’s the All-Star break, which seems like as good a time as any to determine midterm grades for the Mets players and management. This is a subjective process, which will factor in not only performance but also how the individual is doing compared to expectations. We’ll list batter, pitcher, and management sections, each done alphabetically. [...]
The Mets' 16-8 record in June of 2024 was their second-best month of June in team history. It certainly was a departure from the awful months of June in the past, where their lackluster play usually created a huge hole that was often hard to climb out of, even with historically productive strong summer months [...]
The David Stearns/Kris Gross era appears to be off to a good start with their first two picks in their initial MLB Draft leading the Mets. If you're not a big amateur baseball fan, here's something that should make you smile: I love the Mets’ two picks, with Carson Benge (No. 19) a real upside [...]
With the Mets surging ahead of the All-Star Break into the third wild card spot backed on a strong offensive performance in the post-Grimace Era, the pitching staff is poised to get a shot in the arm after the All-Star Break with the impending return of ace Kodai Senga. The 2023 All-Star and runner-up in [...]

The MLB Draft begins Sunday night at 7 p.m. Eastern and the Mets have the 19th pick. There’s no consensus among the draft gurus on who the Mets might pick, which isn’t all that unusual given the spot they’re drafting. Of course, the Mets are drafting at that spot due to the 10-pick penalty for [...]
The Mets jumped out to a 4-0 lead, the Rockies rallied for three against the starter and in a nice twist, the bullpen gave 4.2 scoreless innings and the Mets emerged with a 7-3 win Saturday afternoon at Citi Field.

What a difference a month makes. At this time in June, the Mets were over the pond, taking on the otherworldly Philadelphia Phillies in the MLB London Series – to give it its full Carnaby Street moniker. At that point, their record stood at 27-35. This had actually been an improvement over their season-low, achieved [...]
The Mets hit five home runs and their starting pitcher gave seven innings. Easy win, right? Well, actually, no. The Rockies had the tying and go-ahead runs on in the ninth inning. But all’s well that ends well and the Mets hung on for a 7-6 win Friday night at Citi Field. The Mets are [...]
