After Kodai Senga’s start on Sunday lasted only 2 2/3 innings, I said to myself, “I don’t think the Mets starters can get worse than this”. And then David Peterson took the mound on Wednesday. Peterson lasted only 3 2/3 innings, giving up seven earned runs on five hits and three walks. Peterson exited to a flurry of boos from the crowd, leaving the bases loaded for Sean...
And just like that, the Mets lose another bat. Chelsea Janes of SNY reports the Mets will place Luis Robert Jr. on the injured list on Thursday. The news comes a day after Carlos Mendoza reported Robert Jr. was day-to-day with a back issue that wasn’t improving with treatment. Robert Jr. received an MRI on Wednesday and has been out of the lineup since Tuesday’s opener against the...

The Mets will try to take the rubber game at 1:10 p.m....
David Peterson was ineffective and wild and Sean Manaea was arguably worse. A day after the Mets scored seven runs in the fourth inning, the Nationals pulled the same trick en route to a 14-2 victory Wednesday at Citi Field. Peterson, making his first start since April 13 after being demoted to the bullpen, gave up three hard singles to his first four batters. The Nationals led 1-0 and had...

The Mets opened up their series with the Nationals last night with an 8-0 win, thanks to a massive fourth inning where the Mets put up seven on the Nationals.

After homering on Opening Day, Carson Benge went into a 2-for-30 slump that saw his batting average tumble to .091 on April 7. But whether it was by faith or necessity, Carlos Mendoza stuck with him, even batting him leadoff at times to try to get him going. The rookie is showing signs of meeting the potential that the Mets saw when they made him the 19th pick of the 2024 draft out of Oklahoma...
Good morning, Mets fans! Jon Heyman of the New York Post reported before Tuesday’s game that Juan Soto has forearm tightness. Heyman noted that he was good to swing, but didn’t play the field.

The Rockies swept the doubleheader (and the series) from the Mets. The Mets recorded only...

At this time it is unclear how long he will be out or how serious the injury is. He received an epidural and won’t throw for seven to 10 days. After looking dominant in his first two starts, Kodai Senga has given up 16 earned...
Well, the New York Mets play more baseball this week. After signs of life against the Twins, the Mets were swept by the Colorado Rockies, firmly falling into last place in the National League. And yes, I am writing those words in late April, and I am just as dumbfounded as you may think. New York lately cannot do anything right as a team, specifically on the hitting side of things. And before...
So many things need fixing for the 9-19 Mets, but for the sake of time (and my sanity) I will focus on three problems. They are swinging at bad pitches, blowing leads and failing in the clutch. Chase Rate Percentage With the Mets down 3-1 in the seventh inning on Sunday against the Rockies, Brett Baty waved at a 1-1 pitch well out of the strike zone. Two pitches later he struck out looking. Per...
