One day after they lost Clay Holmes to a fractured fibula, the New York Mets took game two of the 2026 Subway Series against the New York Yankees 6-3 thanks to a pair of good performances by Juan Soto and Luke Weaver. Weaver, especially, had the gutsiest performance by any Mets pitcher this season as he battled out of a bases-loaded and nobody-out jam. David Peterson was solid out of the bullpen...
Saturday, May 16, 2026 • 7:15 PM Citi Field • Flushing, NY LHP Carlos Rodón (0-0, 6.23) vs. RHP Huascar Brazobán (2-1, 2.14) FOX The bad news just continues for the 2026 Mets. Clay Holmes, in the midst of a career year, fractured his fibula last night, taking a comebacker from Spencer Jones. The Mets will have to file this under next week’s problems as they just need to get through this weekend...
It’s the middle of May. It’s deep enough into the season now that it’s fair to say Bo Bichette has been a disappointment. While a few other Mets have finally started to get going — Brett Baty, Carson Benge and Marcus Semien, to name a few — Bichette has remained in a slump. Despite this, the Mets have kept him in the top third of the order. It’s partly due to necessity,...
Zach Thornton dominated in his second start for Triple-A Syracuse Friday night, striking out nine over six scoreless innings in an 8-2 victory over Scranton/Wilkes Barre. (You can see one of the Ks here.) The preseason No. 16 prospect on MMO gave up three hits and walked one. The 24-year-old was promoted earlier this month after pitching to a 3.60 ERA over five starts at Double-A. Triple-A...
Good morning, Mets fans! What a painful night. The Mets (18-26) lost the Subway Series opener at Citi Field, but the bigger blow came after the game when it was revealed that Clay Holmes broke his right fibula on a 111 mph comebacker hit by Spencer Jones in the fourth inning. Carlos Mendoza said the dependable Holmes, who will be added to the injured list with a 2.39 ERA, will “be down for...
The Mets’ season from hell continues as manager Carlos Mendoza stated that Clay Holmes will go on the injured list with a fractured fibula. He got hit by a comebacker off the bat of Spencer Jones in the fourth inning of Friday night’s game against the New York Yankees, finished the inning, and then came out to start the fifth before leaving after two batters. It is unclear just how...

Are the New York Mets (18-25) back? Maybe… Maybe not… The Mets swept a three-game series from the Detroit Tigers, their first sweep since August of 2025.

The Mets will look to continue their positive run against the New York Yankees...
On Thursday, the Mets finished off a dominant sweep of the Detroit Tigers with a 9-4 win. The offense is finally finding its rhythm. Over the three-game set, the Mets put up a total of 22 runs. While the early part of the season had its ups and downs (or just downs, I should say), the resilience of this lineup is starting to flip the narrative. The game did not start the way Nolan McLean or the...
