We have written at length about the lost 2017 season for Justin Dunn. The Mets' top pick from the 2016 draft, Dunn entered 2017 with high expectations and fell squarely on his face. His 2017 season was so bad that the Mets moved their former top pick into the bullpen to help get him back [...]
We value the comments section of our articles. We understand that sometimes the comments can go off on a tangent and discuss things that aren't the main focus of the article. That's okay. What isn't okay is when people post links in an article that have absolutely nothing to do with said piece. And that's [...]
Just as the Mets almost let one get away, Wilmer Flores saved the day with another signature walk-off home run in the bottom of the ninth inning. The Citi Field faithful erupted in applause, the team stormed out of the dugout to celebrate, and a certain blogger jumped out of his seat and screamed so [...]

The Mets extended their winning streak to nine games with a 6-5 victory over the Brewers Friday night in the first of a three-game series. Todd Frazier delivered his first Mets homer in his first trip to the plate and added his second Mets homer the next time he came to bat. New Met Jose [...]
There's a new sheriff in town and a whole new direction and vibe with this team. While many of the players may be the same from the past few seasons, this is a very different team than we saw the past few seasons and, so far, it's all for the better. Although the Mets red [...]
Yes, yes, I know. It’s a marathon, not a sprint, as the old cliché goes. It’s April 12. It’s only 11 games. When the inevitable “crash” comes – by “crash, I mean something along the lines of a three-game losing streak -- it will feel lousy. But hot damn does this start put a smile [...]
