On a day when the New York Mets honored two franchise greats, Bobby Valentine and Lee Mazzilli, the team defeated the Miami Marlins 6-1 on Saturday afternoon, led by another good Christian Scott performance. For Scott, it was the first win of his major league career, and the Mets’ offense gave him some backup with six runs. The bullpen had another strong day and got the remaining 12 outs...
Good morning, Mets fans! The next starter the Mets face has a 7.20 ERA. Good news? Devin Williams hadn’t allowed a run since April 23 (10 outings) when he entered a scoreless game Sunday against the Marlins in the ninth inning. That changed quickly: Double, sacrifice bunt, walk, intentional walk, a Heriberto Hernández walk-off grand slam. MMO’s Brandyn Pokrass’ excellent recap...
Sunday, May 24, 2026 • 1:40 PM loanDepot park • Miami, FL RHP Christian Scott (0-0, 4.12) vs. RHP Tyler Phillips (0-0, 1.20) SNY The New York Mets look to salvage the series and avoid the sweep this afternoon against the Marlins. Friday night the Mets lost 2-1. Saturday, the Mets lost 4-1. Going back to Thursday the Mets have scored only four runs. Hopefully, the Mets’ offense can wake up this...
The New York Mets showed plenty of good and bad after splitting a series with the Nationals. After exploding offensively in the opener, the Mets dropped back-to-back clunkers in Washington. However, the team was able to claw out a win in the finale to avoid dropping the series. As has often been the case recently, there was a mixture of positives and negatives from the four games against the...
At the end of April, things looked bleak for the back of the Mets’ bullpen. Devin Williams had an 8.00 ERA and blew a save in the middle of the Mets’ 12 game losing streak, while Luke Weaver had two blown saves of his own to go along with his 6.00 ERA. The No. 5 and No. 14 highest-paid relief pitchers in baseball looked like, in that small sample size, that they did not belong in...
Good morning, Mets fans! Best win of the year! RIP to the streak of losing when trailing after eight innings. It died Sunday at 91 games. Tyrone Taylor hit a game-tying, three-run homer just inside the left-field foul pole with the Mets down to their last out against Yankee closer David Bednar. The Mets walked it off in the 10th when Carson Benge bounced a ball on the infield and Marcus Semien...
After a big win in the second game of the series, the New York Mets’ pitching and defense almost foiled their afternoon Sunday. However, huge hits and a comeback not seen in almost two years propelled the Mets to a series win, taking the home portion of the Subway Series 7-6 and finishing a strong 5-1 homestand. The Mets are now six games under .500, but with all the momentum on their...
Winning baseball games is always fun. Wins against a rival? Even more fun. The New York Mets took down the New York Yankees on Saturday night thanks in large part to relief outings from Luke Weaver and Devin Williams. What are some things that these players have in common? They both are relief pitchers on the New York Mets. They both were born on the 21st of a month. They both made their major...
It’s official – The New York Mets have the worst record in baseball once again. Despite finishing a long road trip 5-4, the Mets return home with a 15-25 record on the year. After showing some progress against Anaheim and Colorado, New York dropped two out of three to the Diamondbacks. At this point, it is fair to wonder if we’re just destined for a long, tough season full of...
Devin Williams could be seen talking to Carlos Mendoza in the dugout after his eighth-pitch bottom of the ninth. The implication from outside observers was that Williams might pitch the 10th. It made sense — Williams had cruised through a quick ninth, he’s been pitching well recently and the Mets can’t afford to be blowing close games with the way their season’s gone. Alas,...
Nolan McLean and the New York Mets (14-23) took on the Arizona Diamondbacks (17-19), leading off their final series of a nine-game road trip. Friday night’s game kicked off a three-game set with the Diamondbacks, and behind great starting pitching from McLean and the bullpen, the Mets defeated the D-backs 3-1 in extras. After the Mets went down in order to begin the game in the first, McLean...
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...
