Is hope in the air for the New York Mets now? There were a lot of positives on display as the Mets took two out of three from the Padres. And, in winning the series in San Diego, New York finished their final West Coast road trip with a 3-3 record. The Mets have also won seven of their last 10 games. Furthermore, they are 19-15 since May 1. That’s obviously a big improvement and a sign...
Light-hitting catcher Freddy Fermin hit a go-ahead two-run homer in the seventh inning off Austin Warren to send the Mets to a 3-2 loss Saturday in San Diego, spoiling a good effort by Nolan McLean. Carson Benge and Bo Bichette hit back-to-back singles in the eighth to give Juan Soto a chance to be a hero, and he hit the ball hard, but it was caught by second baseman Sung-Mun Song, who threw to...

On a day when the New York Mets honored two franchise greats, Bobby Valentine and Lee Mazzilli, the team defeated the Miami Marlins 6-1 on Saturday afternoon, led by another good Christian Scott performance. For Scott, it was the first win of his major league career, and the Mets’ offense gave him some backup with six runs. The bullpen had another strong day and got the remaining 12 outs...
The misery keeps on coming for the New York Mets. In a less-than-ideal start to the homestand, the Mets dropped two out of three to the Reds at Citi Field. They did win the series finale to snap a five-game losing streak, but that’s hardly cause to celebrate. We’re currently witnessing a team that can’t get out of its own way. Even at full health, it is hard to have any faith...
The New York Mets showed plenty of good and bad after splitting a series with the Nationals. After exploding offensively in the opener, the Mets dropped back-to-back clunkers in Washington. However, the team was able to claw out a win in the finale to avoid dropping the series. As has often been the case recently, there was a mixture of positives and negatives from the four games against the...
One night of drama wasn’t enough for the two teams. After a 16-7 win over the Nationals in which the Mets scored 10 runs in the 12th inning on Monday night, it was another wild one in Washington on Tuesday. On the mound, it was the righty Nolan McLean (2-2, 3.57 ERA) for the Mets against lefty Foster Griffin (4-2, 4.02 ERA) for the Nationals. It was a lopsided roller coaster of emotions for the...

There were a lot of reasons to give up on last night’s game. The Tigers took an early 2-0 lead. The Mets struggled with runners in scoring position.

It’s official – The New York Mets have the worst record in baseball once again. Despite finishing a long road trip 5-4, the Mets return home with a 15-25 record on the year. After showing some progress against Anaheim and Colorado, New York dropped two out of three to the Diamondbacks. At this point, it is fair to wonder if we’re just destined for a long, tough season full of...
The New York Mets are bad. Not the entire team — but most of it. The pitching, aside from a weak link in the rotation, has generally been pretty good. The offense has been a glaring problem. At this point, it’s time to cut bait and move on to the next generation of Mets. The Outfield It all starts with A.J. Ewing. With Luis Robert Jr. injured and without a timetable to return, Ewing should...
