The Mets reinstated Max Scherzer from the injured list Tuesday afternoon ahead of a start with the Reds. In order to make room on the 26-man roster, the Mets have designated for assignment relief pitcher Chasen Shreve. Scherzer is making his return to the rotation on Tuesday.

3 UP Escobar Hopefully Heating Up Eduardo Escobar usually takes off in the month of June. It seemed like it was about to happen again this year. However, he had a medical issue and struggled. Now that the issue appears behind him, Escobar is hitting again. He now has a three-game hitting steak with a homer and four RBI. That might not sound like much, but Escobar went 0-for-18 with eight...
Have you ever played fantasy baseball and decided to punt on closers? Well the Mets saw their roster at the beginning of the season and decided to do that with left-handed relievers. Presently on New York’s 40-man roster, the lefties are David Peterson, Chasen Shreve, Joely Rodriguez, Joey Lucchesi, and Locke St. John. Peterson is a starter, Lucchesi is on the 60-day injured list, and St....
Mandatory Credit: Jayne Kamin-Oncea-USA TODAY Sports 3 UP Best Mets Start The Mets had a long west coast trip, and in many ways, how people were going to react to the trip in general hinged on the series finale. That goes double with the Mets looking to avoid losing two straight series for the first time all season. Taijuan Walker stepped up big on what he called the best start of his Mets...
Before the season, the New York Mets had to answer the question of who would be their left-handed arm out of the bullpen. The question got so large New York decided to make a trade with the New York Yankees to bring in Joely Rodríguez. The team also signed former Met, Chasen Shreve, to a minor league contract. After a strong spring training, Shreve made the Mets’ roster. Shreve started the...
The day-night sweep was not to be for the New York Mets (27-15), who dropped the second game of their Saturday doubleheader 11-3 against the Colorado Rockies (19-20). The Rockies broke the game wide open in the bottom of the sixth inning, putting what was at one point a very close contest completely out of reach. The Mets got hits from three of their first four batters against Ty Blach, who was...
The New York Mets (23-13) entered Sunday evening in hopes to extend their season series streak without a loss to 11. During a beautiful day at Citi Field, the Mets’ streak snapped against the Seattle Mariners (16-19). Carlos Carrasco, nor the bullpen had it, and the Mets fell 8-7. New York almost mustered up another improbable ninth-inning rally, but fell just short. Francisco Lindor...
[tps_title][/tps_title] Back on April 3rd a trade was made between the two New York teams as they swapped relievers. It certainly caught many off guard as the Mets acquired left-hander Joely Rodríguez in exchange for right-handed, hard-thrower Miguel Castro. The Mets evidently didn’t see Chasen Shreve as enough to fulfill the left-handed reliever role that was vacated after Aaron Loup...
For the first time since opening weekend, the Mets (20-10) are heading back to Washington D.C. to face the Nationals (10-20) in a three-game series. Since their last meeting, things have been going swimmingly for the Mets, while the Nationals are sinking. The Mets are unbeaten in series to start the season, with eight series wins and one series split, and are in first place in the NL East. The...
The Mets made quite the gamble this past winter by passing on Aaron Loup, and letting him sign with the Los Angeles Angels. Loup had a career year in 2021 with the Mets. He finished the season with a 0.95 ERA over 65 games and cashed that into $17 million contract over two years. The Mets opted to not pursue top lefty arms on the market in Andrew Chafin, Jake Diekman, and Brad Hand. Instead,...
