If there is one thing the 2026 New York Mets have shown early this season, it’s that no lead feels entirely safe. That theme surfaced again Thursday night in a back-and-forth game where the Mets’ offense was able to produce enough to overcome a late collapse and still come away with a 10-8 win over the Minnesota Twins. The evening started precariously for starter Christian Scott, who struggled...
The Syracuse Mets lost despite Ryan Clifford homering for the fourth time in as many games while Jack Wenninger struggled with his control, A.J. Ewing hit his first home run of the season in a Binghamton loss, Dylan Ross had a scoreless inning in a Cyclones loss and Elian Peña had two hits in a St. Lucie loss. Triple-A Syracuse Mets (12-11) 4, Worcester Red Sox (13-10) 10 BOX SCORE 1B Ryan...
The Mets’ quest for a winning streak after 12 straight losses was anything but easy, but they secured a second consecutive victory, hanging on to beat the Minnesota Twins 10-8 on Thursday night. Christian Scott’s first start since July 2024, after undergoing Tommy John surgery, was a short one. He walked four in the first inning, but to his credit only gave up one run and stranded the...
Thursday, April 38, 2026 • 7:10 PM Citi Field • Flushing, NY RHP Joe Ryan (2-2, 3.29) vs. RHP Christian Scott (0-0, -.–) SNY The Mets look to win a series for the first time in what feels like 37 years tonight! Last night, the Mets squeaked by the Twins 3-2 to snap their 12-game losing streak. It was a bittersweet end to a tough stretch as Francisco Lindor injured his calf and is now on...
Francisco Lindor has been placed on the 10-day injured list with a left calf strain, and Ronny Mauricio has been recalled from Triple-A Syracuse. This comes just days after Mauricio hit three home runs in one game for Syracuse. This is a big loss for the Mets, who just saw Juan Soto return from the injured list after missing time with a calf strain. However, Carlos Mendoza said Lindor’s...
For twelve grueling baseball games, the Mets were the kind of team you watch through your fingers. Wednesday night, that was still slightly true, but Clay Holmes pulled the paper bag off fans’ heads. Holmes went seven strong innings in the Mets’ 3-2 win over the Twins, ending what was the franchise’s longest losing streak since 2002. The 33-year-old righty allowed two earned...
Here is what you need to know from Wednesday’s minor league action in the Mets system: A four-hit day for Jacob Reimer could hopefully be the start of an offensive breakout. Reimer is the No. 5-ranked Mets prospect on MLB Pipeline and is hopefully trending in the right direction. Elsewhere, Will Watson punched out six batters in his start on Wednesday and showed a little better control...
Right-hander Christian Scott will start the Mets’ series finale against the Twins on Thursday, Carlos Mendoza announced. Kodai Senga, who was in line to start that day, will remain in the starting rotation but will be pushed to Saturday. Mendoza also said David Peterson will remain in the bullpen through this turn in the rotation. “The way Scott has been throwing the ball over the...
Updated Post, 4/21/26 Two and a half weeks since suffering a calf strain, Juan Soto is set to return to the Mets on Wednesday in the middle of their series against the Minnesota Twins. Soto injured his calf running the bases April 3 against the Giants. The Mets won that game and the three after that, but have lost 11 straight following. Soto’s absence has been felt across that span, as the...
The New York Mets are making headlines for all the wrong reasons. After being swept by the Cubs in Chicago, the Mets have now lost 11 consecutive games and are 7-15 on the season. That’s tied for the worst record in all of baseball. Furthermore, the Mets rank last in a number of statistical categories, including the most important one: runs. They also look incompetent in almost every...
Saturday, April 18, 2026 • 2:20 PM Wrigley Field • Chicago, IL RHP Freddy Peralta (1-1, 3.86) vs. RHP Jameson Taillon (0-1, 4.86) SNY The Mets are currently on their longest losing streak since 2004. They still have to lose two more games to tie that streak, three more to break it. Or the Mets could end all of that talk with a win this afternoon in Chicago. Yesterday, the Mets were able to rack...
The Mets placed Jorge Polanco on the 10-day Injured List due to his right wrist contusion, retroactive to April 15. Before the move, Polanco had also been dealing with left Achilles bursitis. The injury wasn’t bad enough to place the switch-hitter on the IL. Polanco was slashing .179/.246/.286 with one homer in 14 games. The Mets recalled Hayden Senger from Triple-A Syracuse as the...
