Luis Robert Jr. went 2-for-3 with a home run in Double-A Binghamton’s 7-2 loss Friday to Hartford. It was his first homer since hitting one for the big-league team on April 9 vs. Arizona. Robert (lumbar spine disc herniation) could return to the Mets after the All-Star break and they may look to showcase him for teams in need of outfield help at the trade deadline, which is Aug. 3. Robert,...

One team endured a brutal 24-hour travel experience and arrived at the ballpark just two hours before the scheduled first pitch. The other slept in the comfort of their own beds the night before. You’d probably think the latter squad would have the clear advantage…until I told you that team was the 2026 New York Mets. Facing a Boston Red Sox team that suffered through multiple travel issues en...

For the first time since June 12-14 against the Atlanta Braves, the New York Mets (40-54) won a series at home. Their offense played a critical role in them taking two of three over the Kansas City Royals, scoring 8.33 runs per game in the series.

In his most recent column, Ken Rosenthal of the Athletic reiterated that the Pittsburgh Pirates are open to trading their competitive-balance round pick for the upcoming draft. This is the 34th overall pick in the draft. The easy answer to whether or not the Mets should trade for that pick is easy – yes. A million times yes. So why should they trade for it and what would it cost? Mets...

The first key to success is failure. And the first pitch of Sean Manaea’s brilliant start Thursday against the Royals was the definition of unsuccessful. Lane Thomas came up to the plate, and before many had sat down, deposited a four-seamer 406 feet into the left field seats. The pitch gave the Royals an instant one-run lead, but wound up being half of the Royals’ total runs in the...
