Read MoreI decided to take a look at our 2004 season this morning. That was the last time the Mets finished below .500 and pretty much spelled doom for manager Art Howe and Interim General Manager Dan Duquette. That season the Mets finished in fourth place with a record of 71-91. Currently, the Mets have a 55-63 record with 44 games left to play. The Mets are currently 6-10 in August and if they continue...

Cora, who signed as a free agent in the offseason, hit .251 with one homer and 18 RBIs in 82 games in his...

It was the Mets’ 12th loss in their last 18 games, and things are really starting to go downhill fast. Livan Hernandez started and he was absolutely torched by the Giants batters who were teeing off on him like it was...
