Light-hitting catcher Freddy Fermin hit a go-ahead two-run homer in the seventh inning off Austin Warren to send the Mets to a 3-2 loss Saturday in San Diego, spoiling a good effort by Nolan McLean. Carson Benge and Bo Bichette hit back-to-back singles in the eighth to give Juan Soto a chance to be a hero, and he hit the ball hard, but it was caught by second baseman Sung-Mun Song, who threw to...
The road woes continued for the Mets as they dropped two of three in Seattle. New York (27-35) is 12-20 away from Citi Field and hasn’t won a road series since taking two of three in Colorado about a month ago. The Mets won the finale to give them good vibes before a day off Thursday. And up next on the road trip is the slumping Padres, who have lost four in a row, eight of 10, and are in...
The Mets found a way to beat the Marlins. MJ Melendez stunned Miami with a two-run, walk-off homer in the 10th inning on an 0-2 pitch from Pete Fairbanks to give the Mets a 9-7 victory at Citi Field. Austin Warren (1-1) stranded the free runner with a perfect 10th to earn the win. Last weekend, the Mets couldn’t score (two runs in three games) as they were swept by the Marlins. On Friday,...
Juan Soto hit two 400-plus foot home runs, but it wasn’t enough to overcome a rocky MLB debut by Zach Thornton as the Nats beat the Mets 8-4 Wednesday at Nationals Park. Thornton, 24, struggled immediately, giving up a single and a walk in the first inning before CJ Abrams teed off on an 85 mph cutter for a 389-foot, three-run homer, his 10th of the season and first off of a lefty. The...
The New York Mets are bad. Not the entire team — but most of it. The pitching, aside from a weak link in the rotation, has generally been pretty good. The offense has been a glaring problem. At this point, it’s time to cut bait and move on to the next generation of Mets. The Outfield It all starts with A.J. Ewing. With Luis Robert Jr. injured and without a timetable to return, Ewing should...
Another loss, and another anemic outing from the New York Mets offense as they dropped the second game of this three-game series to the Arizona Diamondbacks 2-1. Clay Holmes and the bullpen kept the Mets in it. However, the offense only notched three hits on the day and failed to produce against Arizona starter Merrill Kelly. Thirteen consecutive Mets batters were retired to close out the game....
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...
Good morning, Mets fans! Scoring runs shouldn’t be this hard. After the Mets lost the first game of the doubleheader Sunday, Carlos Mendoza was asked if the team’s problems were fixable. “Yes,” he told reporters. “We’ve got to do something. That’s not a good showing. We’ve got to fix it.” The fix may come, but it didn’t happen in Game...

If the Mets sweep the doubleheader, they’ll win their second consecutive series and will continue to chip away at...
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...
Brett Baty looked like he broke out in 2025. He took the ball deeper to combat his pitch recognition issues and utilized his plus bat speed to drive the ball. He traded contact rates for power and no longer focused on pulling the ball in the air, letting his plus exit velocities make up for going the other way. After a small swing adjustment in mid-April to prevent dropping his barrel, Baty...
It proved to be an unwelcome return home for the New York Mets. Opening up the homestand with three games against the Arizona Diamondbacks, the Mets dropped two out of three to lose the series and fall to 7-6 on the year. While there were some standout moments, a hit-and-miss offense, poor defense, and some bad pitching performances ultimately doomed the Mets. Let’s recap everything in the...
