MMO Exclusive: Former Mets Exec Sheds Details On Firing, Culture, Dysfunction

The New York Mets hired Nick Francona, the son of Cleveland Indians manager Terry Francona, last spring to help with the player development in the minor leagues. Francona, 33, was fired by the Mets in May and says the reasoning goes beyond his work in the front office.

Back Under .500, Mets Facing Crossroads

There may be 129 games left to play, but it’s not an overreaction to say that the Mets are at a critical juncture of their season. After a pleasantly surprising start to the season, the Mets lost Wednesday to fall back under .500, an event that has proven to be a death knell the last couple years.  In 2012 our collective hopes were kept up until July 22nd before a loss pushed the team below the...

Wheeler Lasts Only Four Innings, Gives Up Five Runs

It was not the best of starts for Zack Wheeler on Memorial Day, as he struggled throughout most of the game to find his command and was not exactly helped by his defense much either. Wheeler lasted merely four innings in his second start back from the DL against Salt Lake – after he looked a little rusty in his last go-around. He allowed four hits, two of which were home runs, and three...

Happy Memorial Day From MMO

The Mets have ended this past week taking 2 out of 3 from the World Champion New York Yankees to sweeping the National League Champions, the Philadelphia Phillies, impressively shutting them out in all 3 games. To call 2010 a rollercoaster year for the Mets is more than an understatement. To go from worst to first, back to worst and once again to being in contention in a few weeks is borderline...
