After 92 games, the Mets are 47-45, which is more or less where most people figured they would be. But the way they’ve gotten there has been quite different from the blueprint drawn up before the season began. Let’s ignore cold starts and hot finishes and instead focus on what the players have done over [...]
Mets pitchers allowed six hits and five walks, plus they hit three batters. But with the Nats going 1-12 with RISP – and that hit not driving in a run – the Mets picked up their first shutout of the year with a 7-0 whitewashing of Washington Thursday afternoon. The win gave the Mets a [...]

This is the second version of our Power Rankings. Once again, Dalton Allison and Gus Livaditis join me in this exercise. The three of us produce individual rankings, with our top team getting 30 points and our bottom team getting 1. Then all three are added together to arrive at the rankings below. The number [...]
The Mets had a chance to be aggressive on the bases in the fourth inning but didn’t push their luck and didn’t score. They were aggressive in the sixth inning, which resulted in a four-run frame and eventually a 6-2 win over the Nationals Wednesday night. The Mets are now a half game behind the [...]

Please use this thread all week to discuss any Mets-specific topic you wish. Please use this space instead of going off topic on the most-recent thread.
Francisco Lindor and Brandon Nimmo continue to prove why they should have made the All-Star game, as each homered to power the Mets to a 7-5 win over the Nationals Tuesday night. The Mets are now 6-2 against their NL East rival this season. It was a rematch of last week’s pitcher’s duel between Jose [...]

If you asked 100 people who the best starting pitcher for the Mets is, the most common answer would probably be Luis Severino. And while he got off to a great start this year – buoyed by having six of his first 10 starts in Citi Field while it was playing as an extreme pitcher’s [...]
The Mets are weighing the options of being buyers or sellers in 2024 and their post Grimace resurgence has them confused if they should be one or the other. More than likely the Mets will wind up toeing a middle road where they do neither and that leads us to the question of who or [...]
It’s hard to decide which one is more infuriating – the way the Mets handle their pitchers or Gary Cohen’s defense of that plan. Regardless, the former – over this entire season in general and this series in particular – directly and majorly contributed to an 8-2 loss to the Pirates Monday in the conclusion [...]
