Jack Wenninger Deserves a Look in Mets’ Rotation

Flabbergasted. Probably the emotion all Mets’ players, coaches, and fans felt when the news of Clay Holmes’ injury broke after Friday’s loss to the Yankees. It was a brutal blow to Holmes and the Mets’ roster as a whole. The righty had blossomed in his second full season as a starter and holds a 2.39 ERA in 52 2/3 innings after his start Friday, plus he joins a long IL...

Bo Bichette Enters Mid-May Still Struggling at the Plate

It’s the middle of May. It’s deep enough into the season now that it’s fair to say Bo Bichette has been a disappointment. While a few other Mets have finally started to get going — Brett Baty, Carson Benge and Marcus Semien, to name a few — Bichette has remained in a slump. Despite this, the Mets have kept him in the top third of the order. It’s partly due to necessity,...

Clay Holmes Suffers Fractured Fibula

It is unclear just how...

The game did not start the way Nolan McLean or the...

Redemption in Queens: Carson Benge Plays Hero

Everyone loves a redemption arc. For outfielder Carson Benge, that entire plot played out over just nine innings. The Mets took on the Detroit Tigers on Wednesday night in game two of a three-game set, looking for their second straight win with Christian Scott on the mound.
