Jeff Passan of Yahoo Sports tweeted before noon about there being “significant momentum” in a trade involving Edwin Diaz and Robinson Cano. The entire rest of the day was spent by reporters building off that information. Joel Sherman of the New York Post tweeted after...

It was a strong season for the development of the New York Mes farm system, going from being ranked No. 27 to No. 19 according to Baseball America, one of the biggest jumps for any organization. There are many reasons for the improvement, from acquiring prospects in trade (Franklyn Kilome, Will Toffey), to pitchers finally pitching healthy full season (Anthony Kay, David Peterson), strong pro...

3 UP 1. Team Still Cares Perhaps it is because this is the Subway Series, but we really have not seen quit in these Mets players. Noah Syndergaard was boasting before his start against the Yankees, and he largely backed it up by getting the win. We saw Pat Roessler and Asdrubal Cabrera get tossed from a game because of their arguing balls and strikes. Mickey Callaway sent out a rested Seth Lugo...

In order to make room on the active roster for infielder Todd Frazier and reliever Anthony Swarzak, the New York Mets have sent right-hander Gerson Bautista to Triple-A Las Vegas and designated for assignment southpaw Buddy Baumann. Bautista, 23, was acquired at last year’s trade deadline from the Boston Red Sox along with pitchers Jamie Callahan and Stephen Nogosek for Addison Reed. He...
Last night, the Mets had to play a grueling 14 inning game against the Chicago Cubs, which they ended up losing by a score of 7-1. The 14th inning was an absolute disaster as Buddy Baumann gave up four runs and Gerson Bautista gave up two more to combine for a six-run beating. To this point, Baumann has allowed 13 runs (10 earned) in only 3 1/3 innings pitched while Bautista has allowed six runs...
In what has been a news-filled early afternoon for the Mets, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports that the Mets will be sending Kevin Plawecki, Hansel Robles, and Gerson Bautista to Atlanta with the team, with all of them being options for activation. Plawecki would almost certainly replace Tomas Nido on the roster. With Plawecki having played four games at Las Vegas over the past week on a rehab...
