The Mets’ 2021 draft was an interesting, but not incredibly successful one. The big name they took in the first round at No. 10 overall that they did not sign due to medical issues was Kumar Rocker. Rocker got drafted by the Texas Rangers the next year and a few months later underwent Tommy John surgery. He struggled heavily in his rookie season but has looked much better in 2026, pitching...

The MLB draft only a little over a week away!. We previously broke down the typical archetype Kris Gross and David Stearns typically draft: an athletic college bat that is an up-the-middle defender, with plus plate discipline, plus pitch recognition, a plus hit tool, and can run well. As of our article on June 22, the projected players drafted up to that date were: College Hitter – Aiden...
The Mets simply cannot have nice things for more than one day. After Nolan McLean delivered a masterful bounce-back performance on Tuesday, the Mets turned to Freddy Peralta on Wednesday, hoping for more of the same. Instead, the former Cy Young finalist delivered another disappointing outing, lasting just four innings as the Blue Jays dismantled his arsenal and celebrated Canada Day in fitting...

On Wednesday, the MLB announced the participants in this year’s Future Games during All-Star weekend in Philadelphia, including Mets first base prospect Ryan Clifford.

If the season went as planned, Freddy Peralta and Nolan McLean were supposed to be a formidable 1-2 punch at the top of the rotation, a nice combo to start a playoff series with in October.

MMO will be covering it when it airs later today. This was a much needed public showing of support for a president of baseball operations that has come under fire for the major league team’s poor...
The Mets minor leagues end June with some very interesting through lines. Many hitters including Mitch Voit, Nick Morabito, and Chris Suero had strong months and the main thing they have in common is that they began pulling the ball in the air more. Pitchers like Jonathan Santucci and Daviel Hurtado had strong months and looked to take a step forward. The final day of the month seemed to be a...
Nolan McLean showed off the whole repertoire Tuesday, striking out three Blue Jays with a curve, one on a slider, one on a fastball and two on sinkers, including Andrés Giménez, who waved at a 97 mph offering with two on and two out to end the second inning. “In my opinion, Nolan’s one of the best pitchers in the game and he also has probably the top stuff in the game, as...
