The Mets are sending shortstop Francisco Lindor on a rehab assignment this Friday, June 19, beginning in Binghamton, per Mike Puma of the New York Post. Lindor was placed on the injured list on April 23 with a calf strain. Since Lindor’s injury, the Mets’ offense has ranked 22nd in major league baseball with a 95 WRC+, tied with the Angels, Rangers, Tigers, Marlins and Astros. Across...
One step forward, one step back. That is what the New York Mets (33-41) have done in recent weeks. After taking two of three against the first-place Atlanta Braves last weekend, they followed that up by losing two of three against the Cincinnati Reds – not a good recipe for trying to push closer to .500. The Mets will try to reset against the Philadelphia Phillies (40-34), who are now 31-14...
Kiley McDaniel and Jeff Passan of ESPN put out their top 100 trade deadline candidates, and it should be no surprise that many Mets players were listed. Who could the Mets sell? Freddy Peralta – 11 Freddy Peralta is probably the Mets’ best trade asset. His low salary would not push any teams into the next level of the competitive luxury tax, like Tarik Skubal would, which could help...
It looks like Nolan McLean has once again found his groove. The 24-year-old flamethrower was electric Wednesday afternoon, tossing seven dominant innings against the Cincinnati Reds. He struck out nine, allowed just three hits and one walk, and delivered his longest outing of June. “That was excellent,” manager Carlos Mendoza said after the game. That comment was an understatement....

While not officially announced by MLB yet, this will be the first time the Derby will go on without a timer format since 2014.

After the New York Mets offense struggled to score runs in the first two games of their series with the Cincinnati Reds, the offense used two-out hitting in the third inning as part of a nine-run, 15 hit game in a 9-1 win to prevent a sweep. Pitching-wise, the Mets didn’t get much out of Tobias Myers and Kodai Senga in the first two games, but Nolan McLean had his best outing in a bit with...

For the third week in a row the Mets have lost the first two games of a series. Seattle. St. Louis. Now Cincinnati. The Mets were able to salvage the series in Seattle and at home against the Cardinals. Then the Mets...
It tells you how far the expectations have fallen for Kodai Senga that Tuesday’s night’s performance in the Mets’ 5-3 loss to the Reds can be looked at as mildly encouraging. He walked the first two batters he faced, then Sal Stewart hit an 88 mph sinker 410 feet to left field to give the Reds (35-37) a 3-0 lead. Three batters later in the first, Spencer Steer hit a 95 mph...

Spencer Steer added another homer later in the frame, putting New York down 4–0 before its offense had time to settle in. The Mets kept chipping away. Bo Bichette’s RBI single in the third and...
After walking away with a 12-0 loss to Cincinnati on Monday and the news of Christian Scott going to the injured list, the Mets were hoping to get back in the win column Tuesday night. As Scott headed to the IL, Tuesday night marked the return of right-handed pitcher Kodai Senga, who had been on the IL since April with lumbar spine inflammation. It was not the comeback outing Senga was hoping...
