Bad and weird things keep happening to the 2026 New York Mets, and those themes continued in their 4-3 extra-inning loss to the Los Angeles Angels on Saturday night. Austin Warren almost pulled a rabbit out of the hat, but still, he allowed a game-winning single to Oswald Peraza. There was a play that should’ve been challenged by the Mets early in the game that ended up costing them a run....
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...
Due to a rainout on Saturday, the New York Mets and Colorado Rockies were forced to play a doubleheader on Sunday at Citi Field. In the first game, beginning early Sunday afternoon, New York was once again let down by a lifeless offense. The Mets left the bases loaded twice in the contest, leading to the 3-1 defeat. They are now 9-18 on the season headed into the second game of the doubleheader...
Good morning, Mets fans! Let’s play two. The Red Sox, off to a 10-17 start, are cleaning house. Boston fired manager Alex Cora Saturday along with hitting coach Peter Fatse, third base coach Kyle Hudson, bench coach Ramon Vazquez, assistant hitting coach Dillon Lawson and major league hitting strategy coach Joe Cronin. The team said Jason Varitek, the game planning and run prevention...
The top of the ninth inning Tuesday started with Devin Williams on the mound in a tie game. It ended with what was left of the 32,798 who came to Citi Field hoping to witness the end of the Mets’ longest losing streak in 22 years chanting “Austin Warren.” In between, Williams was wild. He walked the first batter he faced on four pitches. He walked his second batter on six. Kody...
After a horrible two-week road trip on the West Coast, in which the Mets dropped 11 games in a row, they returned home to Citi Field on Tuesday to open a three-game series against the Minnesota Twins. This is the first of nine straight games the Mets will play at home. Nolan McLean took the mound for the Mets against Simeon Woods Richardson for Minnesota. After both teams went down quietly in...
In their second-to-last game of the Triple-A regular season, Syracuse fell 5-3 to the Lehigh Valley IronPigs. The offense produced three runs in the second but nothing after, going 1-for-9 with runners in scoring position and leaving nine on base. The bullpen couldn’t hold the lead, giving up a homer in the sixth and three runs in the eighth. Triple-A Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs (87-60) 5, Syracuse...
The Mets have selected the contract of right-handed pitching prospect Dom Hamel from Triple-A Syracuse to the major league roster. If and when Hamel enters into a game for the Mets, it will be to make his big league debut. Hamel is ranked as the Mets’ No. 27 prospect according to MLB Pipeline, and No. 45 on Mike Mayer’s midseason top-50 Mets prospects rankings. The Mets drafted him in 2021...
Another series, another reminder of the issues that have increasingly weighed down the New York Mets as the season wears on. Inconsistent starting pitching, defensive miscues, and a quiet offense were all factors in a 12-4 loss to the San Francisco Giants in the series finale at Citi Field. Frankie Montas took the mound but couldn’t give the Mets the innings they desperately needed,...
The New York Mets announced a slew of roster moves before their series opener against the Kansas City Royals on Friday night. The most important news to emerge from the transactions, however, was that Jesse Winker is heading back to the 10-day injured list, this time with back inflammation, while Jared Young is coming up from Triple-A Syracuse to take his place. Winker, who returned from his...
The Mets announced several roster moves on the pitching side ahead of Saturday’s matchup with the Yankees. Zach Pop was signed to a one-year, major-league contract by the Mets. Pop made four appearances with the Mariners this season and pitched to a 13.50 ERA in 5 1/3 innings. He spent the previous four seasons with the Marlins and Toronto Blue Jays. The native Canadian features a three...
The Mets added more injury to insult to their pitching woes on Thursday. Paul Blackburn was placed on the 15-day Injured List due to a right shoulder impingement. The team also placed Dedniel Núñez on the 15-day IL with a right elbow sprain. Both pitchers could never quite find their footing so far this 2025 season. Blackburn missed the start of the year after he spent the offseason recovering...
