The Mets got three home runs to rally back from a 4-0 deficit to beat the Braves, 8-7, in the opener of a four-game series in Atlanta Monday night. After starting the year 0-5, the Mets have now won four of their last five games. Brandon Nimmo broke out of his slump in a major [...]
Julio Teheran O/U lines: IP - 3.1 ER - 5
The minor league season is only a few days old but a few stories are already becoming relevant. Anthony Baptist lied about his age and has been suspended for it, Ben Gamel might be overqualified for AAA and nobody messes with Norfolk. For the Mets, another storyline is how the signing of J.D. Martinez has [...]
The Mets jumped out to a 3-0 lead behind the offensive exploits of Francisco Lindor and Sean Manaea and four relievers made it stand up, as the Mets notched a 3-1 win over the Reds Sunday afternoon to earn their first series win of the season. Lindor hit a one-out double past the third baseman [...]
Mets look for first series win of 2024

The Mets have played seven games and after scoring three runs in last night’s win, they have scored 16 runs so far this season. That’s an average of 2.29 runs per game. Remarkably, that’s not the worst mark in the majors. The White Sox have only scored 13 runs, for an average of 1.86 runs [...]
When you start the year losing your first five games, you can’t complain about winning the seventh game ugly. The Mets played just good enough to emerge with a 3-2 win over the Reds Friday night in Cincinnati. The Mets came into the contest averaging just 2.17 runs per game, which was 28th in the [...]
Back in the middle of March, there was a piece here called, "Jose Butto should be in the rotation over Adrian Houser." It was a good piece because it was a real opinion backed up with facts. Additionally, it was something just about no one was saying and even fewer were writing. Of course, even [...]
