Congratulations to Pete Alonso for being chosen as the Mets’ representative to the All-Star game. This will be the third time in a row Alonso has made the All-Star team and the fourth selection in his career. It’s just hard for me to believe that anyone feels like Alonso is anywhere close to being the [...]
After blowing the lead in the bottom of the eighth inning, the Met scored two runs in the ninth to earn a 3-2 win over the Pirates Sunday afternoon in Pittsburgh. The win brought the Mets back to .500 for the season and raised their record against Pittsburgh this year to 5-1. After neither team [...]

You hear people say it all of the time – if the Mets are going to be buyers at the deadline, they need to get at least one relief pitcher to bolster their pen. The latest talking point in this regard has been the relievers’ performance while Edwin Diaz served his suspension. Without Diaz to [...]
It was a picture-perfect day in Pittsburgh, with a brilliant blue sky and puffy white clouds. And while it was a little rocky getting there, Edwin Diaz picked up the save in the ninth inning, giving the Mets a 5-2 win. The victory snapped a 3-game losing streak and got the Mets back to within [...]

For over a month Mets fans were waiting for this stretch in July where the club would play all of these games against sub-.500 teams. But what looked like a great opportunity to vault the team comfortably above .500 has not worked that way at all. First up was the Astros and the Mets proceeded [...]
If you’re a Pirates fan who likes home runs, this was the game for you! Pittsburgh cracked seven homers en route to a 14-2 win over the Mets Friday night. Luis Severino started and gave up 3 HR and 7 ER in 6 IP. And somehow it got worse. Jake Diekman gave up a homer [...]

One of the many challenges facing front offices, managers and fans alike is how to balance what’s happened overall versus what’s happened recently and which to put more weight on when evaluating things. Sometimes there’s a reason why things have happened differently in a select span versus how they’ve been overall. For example, we know [...]
Jose Quintana pitched seven shutout innings. Normally, that would be the lede to a game-winner for the Mets. But as good as Quintana pitched, the Mets’ offense was equally bad. They were one-hit in the game and the result was a 1-0 loss to the Nationals Thursday morning/afternoon in D.C. After taking the first two [...]
