After a day off on Monday, the Mets returned home to Citi Field on Tuesday to open a three-game series against the St. Louis Cardinals. Entering Tuesday night’s matchup, the Cardinals owned a 2-1 season-series lead over the Mets, and they extended that by defeating New York 7-0. Right-handed pitcher Dustin May (3-6, 4.27 ERA, 65 SO) took the mound for the Cardinals against right-hander Freddy...
Freddy Peralta entered Wednesday coming off three straight rocky outings, and his afternoon in Seattle didn’t get off to an encouraging start. Handed a first-inning lead, Peralta gave up a lead-off home run to J.P. Crawford, evening the score. After Peralta struck out Julio Rodríguez and induced a pop-out from Josh Naylor, he walked Randy Arozarena to extend the inning. Peralta fanned Luke...
For whatever reason, the Mets have been a far worse team hitting on the road. They bucked that trend Wednesday with a 14-hit attack and a 7-1 victory in Seattle. Bo Bichette had four hits, Juan Soto and Carson Benge executed a double steal of second and home and Freddy Peralta struck out six over six innings as the Mets (27-35) broke the Mariners’ eight-game winning streak....
For once, it was a very good weekend in New York Mets land. The Mets dominantly swept the Marlins at Citi Field. As a result, they have now won four straight while finishing the homestand 4-2. There is still a long way to go for this team to prove they have what it takes to mount a true turnaround. Still, it felt good to see this ballclub take care of business in a big way for once. On that...
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...
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,...
It seems that the Mets are back to their early 2026 ways after a great start to the month of May. New York dropped the second game of the series to Miami by a score of 4-1, moving them to 22-30 on the season. It was a game that emphasized the slim margin that New York has to operate within, mainly due to their poor start to the season. New York sent Freddy Peralta to the mound, and unlike many...
Saturday, May 23, 2026 • 4:10 PM loanDepot park • Miami, FL RHP Freddy Peralta (3-3, 3.31) vs. RHP Max Meyer (4-0, 2.85) SNY The Mets’ offense just couldn’t get anything going last night against the Marlins and the Mets lost 2-1. Now the Mets need to win the next two games of the series to have a winning road trip. Luckily for the Mets, the Marlins also struggled last night to get anything...
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...
Sunday, May 17, 2026 • 1:40 PM Citi Field • Flushing, NY RHP Elmer Rodríguez (0-1, 5.19) vs. RHP Freddy Peralta (3-3, 3.13) SNY The New York Mets can win another series Sunday afternoon! Friday was a disparaging night. The Mets’ offense looked flat. Clay Holmes suffered a fracture in his league on a comebacker sidelining him for a while. Saturday night was the reverse. The Mets scored six runs,...
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...
Clay Holmes likely would not have been the guy many would have thought would be leading the National League in ERA on May 10. Of Mets pitchers, the first guess would have been Freddy Peralta (3.12 ERA) and then maybe Nolan McLean (2.78), but after his eighth consecutive start of allowing two earned runs or fewer Holmes’ ERA leads the NL at 1.86. He’s been so good that giving up two...
