3 Up, 3 Down: Mets Come Out Of Break Strong

It was a winning start for the New York Mets post-All-Star break. In Philadelphia for a three-game series, the Mets took two out of three from the Phillies. As has been the case throughout this season, it wasn’t always perfect or pretty. However, while series wins don’t matter all that much now, it was nice to see some things click, especially in a dominant performance on Sunday to...

3 Up, 3 Down: Offense Powers Mets’ Series Win Against Royals

We saw some progress with the New York Mets this week. Namely, we saw a lot of improvement from the offense. To be more precise, the Mets got consistent production from the lineup throughout the entire three-game series. And we haven’t been able to say that all too often this year. Were it not for a bullpen implosion, then the Mets might have secured a first series sweep since the end of...

3 Up: 3 Down: Mets Blow Their Chance Against Phillies

There is no magic cure-all for the 2026 New York Mets. Even after firing manager Carlos Mendoza on Friday, the Mets couldn’t rally under a new voice. Interim manager Andy Green lost two of his first three games in charge in a series loss to the Phillies. While there were some positives on display, we also saw more of the same old problems that have helped to create the current mess the...

Morning Briefing: David Ross Throws Name into Mets’ Manager Search

Good morning, Mets fans! Another hat has been entered in the Mets’ manager sweepstakes. Per Dan Martin of the New York Post, former Cubs manager and catcher David Ross would ‘love’ a chance at the open position in New York. Of note, Andy Green, the Mets’ interim manager, was David Ross’ bench coach with the Cubs between 2020 and 2023. While Ross currently works for...

Mets Come Up Short Against Phillies After Leaving 14 On Base

Close, but no cigar seems to be the recurring theme for the New York Mets this season. The Mets sought to win the series finale against the Philadelphia Phillies and end a frustrating few days. However, after several missed opportunities with runners on base and some untimely pitching, the Phillies took the lead late in the game and nabbed a 5-4 victory on the road. This marks...

Lit Up Again, Senga May Lose Rotation Spot

Before Kodai Senga took the Citi Field mound Tuesday, David Stearns told the media that the rotation will be judged on a “turn-by-turn” basis. After Senga left the mound, it was unclear if he would take his next turn. Senga (0-6) gave up seven earned runs on three hits, walked five, hit a batter and struck out six over 3 2/3 innings in the 9-6 loss to the Cubs (41-37) in front of...

3 Up, 3 Down: Mets Finish Strong To Avoid Cincy Sweep

All wasn’t lost in Cincinnati for the New York Mets. Yes, the Mets dropped two out of three to the Reds as maddening inconsistency continues to plague this team. Losing this series in Cincinnati made the previous series win against the Braves seem moot. However, this team did show how things could be in the series finale, avoiding the sweep thanks to an ace-like performance and a...

Senga Settles Down After Awful First Inning

It tells you how far the expectations have fallen for Kodai Senga that Tuesday’s night’s performance in the Mets’ 5-3 loss to the Reds can be looked at as mildly encouraging. He walked the first two batters he faced, then Sal Stewart hit an 88 mph sinker 410 feet to left field to give the Reds (35-37) a 3-0 lead. Three batters later in the first, Spencer Steer hit a 95 mph...

Mets Minors Recap: Kevin Parada Stays Hot For Syracuse

Jack Wenninger had a quality start but his offense couldn’t help him in a Syracuse loss, Chris Suero hit a lead-off home run for Binghamton but that would be the only run scored in its loss as Kodai Senga allowed one hit in his rehab start, and Nicolas Carreno was dominant in his first start at High-A.
