Series Preview: Mets Continue Road Trip With Three In Cincinnati

Many Mets fans lamented the All-Star break because it created a lull in the baseball action. In New York’s most recent series in Pittsburgh, there was plenty of action both on and off the field. Off the field, Francisco Lindor landed on the injured list with a grade two oblique strain, and Jacob deGrom joined Lindor on the injured list with forearm discomfort. These are two huge blows for...

It could’ve been much better had they not blown a couple of big leads, but it also could’ve been much worse had they not come back from a...

Taijuan Walker Roughed Up in First-Inning Debacle

Taijuan Walker was looking to start strong with his first outing of the second half after his appearance in the 2021 MLB All-Star game. However, his outing was far from what he would’ve hoped. He lasted just 1/3 of an inning on Sunday, not making it out of a controversial first-inning debacle between the Mets and Pirates. Walker got Adam Frazier to ground out to open the matinee between...
