Luis Robert’s return to the South Side of Chicago to play his former team has been eventful for him and the New York Mets.

On Saturday, Robert let his bat do the talking with two home runs in a 10-5 Mets win. Carson Benge, Bo Bichette, and Luis Torrens also homered....

Surrounding reports that Bo Bichette is expected to opt in and stay with the Mets for 2027, the third baseman has gotten it going lately at the plate. After a miserable start, this whole season has been an uphill climb for Bichette. He dealt with struggles matched only by his abbreviated 2024 season with Toronto. After a hot June that got his numbers into more respectable territory, his...
Good morning, Mets fans. On Friday, reporter Francys Romero reported that the 2026-27 international signing period is not expected to take place. With a lockout looming this offseason, the absence of an international signing period suggests that baseball might be delayed next season with CBA talks still very far apart.

Nate Lavender didn’t enter the Mets’ organization with a ton of fanfare. He was drafted out of the University of Illinois in the 14th round of the 2021 MLB Draft and didn’t possess eye-popping velocity like some of his peers. Over the next two years, Lavender soared through the Mets’ farm system, working exclusively as a reliever and racking up huge strikeout numbers....

He had gone just 1-for-10 in his previous three games after his 18-game on-base streak was snapped. The young outfielder snapped out of that little slump, though, going 2-for-4 and hitting a home run, furthering his candidacy for National League Rookie of the Year. Benge’s day...
