The 2026 season for the New York Mets marches on! New York returns to Citi Field to host the Kansas City Royals, one of their last series before the All-Star break. Both teams are on the skids, and with the Mets currently 11 games out of a playoff spot, playoff aspirations are probably off the table. They’ll face a couple of old friends in Seth Lugo and Michael Wacha, as well as Starling...
The New York Mets managed to split their four-game weekend series against the Atlanta Braves Monday night, winning 7-6 in 10 innings. The offense did its part with seven runners crossing the plate and 11 hits on the night. While Carson Benge kept the game close and Juan Soto came up clutch in the ninth, the real silver lining was from the arm who threw the final 19 pitches of the game. If you...
Good morning, Mets fans! On Monday night, the Mets had a comeback, the likes of which have been few and far between in 2026.

On a 3-1 fastball, Soto turned on the ball directly down the right field line, staying fair for a three-run home run. The mammoth blast traveled 430 ft at...

Both offenses got loud early, but New York’s bullpen did just enough to close it out and hand Atlanta its sixth loss in its last eight games. Freddy Peralta got the start for New York, tossing four and...

Nolan McLean is one of many Mets starters who have experienced a bumpy, up-and-down season. But as of late, the rookie has looked more like himself. More like the guy who came up last season and performed so well down the stretch in 2025. McLean had another strong outing against the Braves on Sunday, helping the Mets end their three-game losing streak with a nail-biting 10-9 win. While the...
Good morning, Mets fans! The Mets are gearing up to very likely be sellers at the deadline, and Will Sammon of The Athletic has some details on how things could shape up. Specifically, Sammon noted that the Mets could get a strong haul for one of their primary two catchers, though it seems unlikely they would do it.

Sunday morning, it was reported by Bob Nightengale of the USA Today that Carlos Beltrán is the favorite to fill the New York Mets’ managerial vacancy following the season. Nightengale also reported that the Mets “would love to hire,” Alex Cora. However, Cora is expected to join the Philadelphia Phillies despite rejecting their offer midseason prior to the hiring of interim Don Mattingly. Beltrán...
A pop up to shallow center Saturday night pretty well summed up the 2026 Mets. Francisco Lindor was calling for it, but gave way at the last second to Tyrone Taylor, who in theory should have an easier read on it coming in. But the ball glanced off Taylor’s glove, he tripped a bit over Lindor before retrieving the ball, the throw home was late and three runs scored. Eli White’s...
