Yesterday Noah Syndergaard threw what he and manager Terry Collins considered his finest major league game to date. It's hard to argue. He cruised through eight innings, walking none and striking out five, while needing only 89 pitches to do it. He touched 98 mph as late as the eighth inning and used his off-speed [...]

The defense is awful, the bullpen is leaky, injured, and overworked, but when people pound the Mets these days it’s because of hitting – or I should say lack of hitting. Tell the truth, the game reaches the fourth inning and the Mets have no runs and no hits, are you surprised? I’m guessing you [...]

He was efficient with his pitches, and was still firing fastballs in the zone at 98 MPH in the eighth. Dilson Herrera showed flashes of brilliance tonight, as he tripled against Johnny Cueto and made a [...]

In April when the Mets were still mostly healthy and the season was young, the club rattled off an 11-game winning streak, seemingly announcing its presence as a legitimate contender in the National League East.  But circumstances, as they often do, have changed.  With Curtis Granderson no longer producing at high levels and a disabled [...]

If they could just muster a .500 record for [...]

With rumors of Steven Matz' promotion in the air, the Mets salvage the final game of the road trip.

The Mets' misery continues as they fell to the Brewers, 4-1 Wednesday night. Curtis Granderson hit a homer leading off the fourth. I'm not sure why people are fired up about moving him down in the order. It's not like there's some spot in the lineup he could hit where people magically get on base [...]
