A lot of Spring Training is noise, but at the end of March we looked at one data point for each hitter in spring to see if they would translate to the regular season. One month in we check back in to see if any of these stuck into the regular season. Freddy Peralta – Zone Rate – Did Not Maintain Freddy Peralta has averaged roughly the same innings per start in 2026 as he did in 2025. In...
A lot of spring training is noise, but at the end of March, we looked at one data point for each hitter in spring to see if they would translate to the regular season. One month in we check back in to see if any of these stuck into the regular season. Francisco Lindor – Average Exit Velocity – Maintained In his limited spring training games after his hamate injury Francisco Lindor maxed...
The New York Mets opened their three-game revenge series in Denver with a 4-2 win. The win brings them to .500 over their last 12 games. While not exactly the trajectory of a playoff team, it’s definitely better than the stretch preceding this recent run. Monday’s victory was, stop me if you’ve heard this before, not the best offensive showing from this Mets club. The team mustered only four...
Through the first 35 games of the 2026 season, the Mets sit at 13-22. They field what is among the worst records in all of Major League Baseball, with one of the worst-performing offenses in the game right now. They’ve seen their season take a huge hit with a 12-game losing streak and being swept at home by teams such as the Athletics and the Colorado Rockies. There are areas to improve,...
For just the second time this season, and the first since early April, the New York Mets won a series on the road. The Mets took two out of three from the Angels to get the road trip off to a promising start. As a result, New York improved to 12-22 on the year. Of course, it is too early to tell if this is the start of a turnaround. The Mets hardly made it easy in Anaheim, committing a series of...
Heading into 2026, MMO named Nolan McLean, Carson Benge and Jonah Tong as the New York Mets’ top three prospects. Now a month into the season, McLean and Benge are big-leaguers, and Tong has faltered a bit. That arguably leaves A.J. Ewing as the Mets’ best prospect. In Double-A, he proved why. Ewing was nothing short of fantastic, and for the second year in a row, earned himself a promotion...
It was not a happy homestand for the New York Mets. Looking to fatten up against lowly opposition, the Mets instead finished with a disappointing 3-6 record. That included a sweep by the Colorado Rockies. The Mets finished the homestand by dropping two out of three to the Washington Nationals. As a result, New York is now the worst team in baseball with an ugly 10-21 record. The Mets have also...
The 2026 season has been less than stellar for our New York Mets, to put it nicely. Changes clearly need to be made – but what should those changes be? Here’s what our team thinks. David Melendi Well, here goes nothing. I would play Baty every day at third, move Bichette to second, and play Mauricio at short until Lindor comes back. For the pitching, the top 3 are set, Tobias Myers...
As of April 28, Alex Cora, formerly of the Boston Red Sox, and Rob Thompson, formerly of the Philadelphia Phillies were fired from their managerial positions over the last week. Managers have been fired as early as six games into a season, though most tend to be let go around Memorial Day. The Red Sox and Phillies have had a start to the season about as bad as the Mets and hope these changes in...
The New York Mets are an absolute train wreck. While it is still April, this team appears to be broken. And there doesn’t appear to be any tangible sign of a turnaround on the horizon, either. Instead, the Mets just keep taking backward steps. Take this weekend, for example. New York was swept at home by the Rockies. And, if you need reminding, Colorado lost 119 games in 2025. The offense...
Rejoice! The New York Mets finally won a game and a series! After the losing streak hit 12 consecutive games, the Mets finally put an end to the downslide by taking two out of three from the Minnesota Twins. It wasn’t always pretty or straightforward, and the series win did come with a cost with Francisco Lindor picking up a potentially serious injury. However, it was important that the...
Thursday, April 38, 2026 • 7:10 PM Citi Field • Flushing, NY RHP Joe Ryan (2-2, 3.29) vs. RHP Christian Scott (0-0, -.–) SNY The Mets look to win a series for the first time in what feels like 37 years tonight! Last night, the Mets squeaked by the Twins 3-2 to snap their 12-game losing streak. It was a bittersweet end to a tough stretch as Francisco Lindor injured his calf and is now on...
