The Mets have officially won a game in which they were trailing when the final pitch was thrown. After over a week of waiting, MLB has determined that the Mets are the official victors of the Sept. 28 matchup with the Marlins, which was suspended with two outs in the top of the ninth inning … and the Marlins leading 2-1. The Mets actually held a 1-0 lead entering the ninth, but Anthony Kay...
After the Miami Marlins-New York Mets game was postponed Tuesday due to an unplayable field (doubleheader Wednesday), Mother Nature had more plans on Thursday night that could end up affecting the Marlins push for a postseason berth. With Miami leading 2-1 in the top of the ninth inning, the tarp was put on the field. Since the game needed to be finished due to there being postseason...
Good morning, Mets fans! Former Met Noah Syndergaard was designated for assignment on Sunday following giving up five runs in six innings against the Blue Jays. A day shy of his 31st birthday, Syndergaard has a disappointing 6.50 ERA and just 56 strikeouts in 88 2/3 innings between the Guardians and Dodgers this season. Syndergaard’s xERA of 6.52 doesn’t paint a pretty picture...
In a classic pitcher’s duel Sunday afternoon, the New York Mets (60-71) were able to avoid a three-game sweep at the hands of the Los Angeles Angels via some late-game heroics. After a starling performance by starting pitcher David Peterson, and some back and forth in the late innings, Rafael Ortega walked it off for the Mets in the ninth inning. New York was able to escape with a 3-2...
Good morning, Mets fans! For the first time since July 13, 2022, the Mets defeated the Braves at Truist Park by a score of 10-4.

New York (59-67) took down the first-place Atlanta Braves (80-44) by a 10-4 margin on Monday evening in Truist Park. In a game with five lead changes, it was an all-around team effort as the bullpen tossed four and 1/3 scoreless innings and the offense clobbered seven unanswered runs from the fifth inning on to secure the win. The Mets have now been triumphant in seven of the club’s last...
This past weekend was not a good one for the New York Mets. In fact, it got pretty damn ugly at points. Yes, the Mets were able to avoid the sweep at the hands of the Atlanta Braves, winning the series finale 7-6 on Sunday. But even that victory was far from pretty. Moral victories aside, New York was absolutely manhandled by a team that has entrenched itself as the Gold Standard in Major League...
The New York Mets (52-65) took on the top team in the league on Sunday Night Baseball at Citi field. The Mets looked to avoid a miserable four-game sweep after getting manhandled in the first three games of the series. Thanks to more stellar pitching from their rookie, and an unlikely star, New York was able to salvage a game, 7-6. The scoring got started right away, as the best first inning...
The Mets have added yet another player with MLB experience to their farm system in the form of outfielder Rafael Ortega, according to Steve Adams of MLB Trade Rumors. He was released from his minor league deal with the Texas Rangers earlier this month, as he wished to pursue a more clear path to the majors. In spring training, he spent time in the New York Yankees’ camp to try and emerge...
Chris Bassitt had an ugly outing Monday night, but the resilient righty, who’s had a big hand in the team being atop the NL East has been nothing but a breath of fresh air in manager Buck Showalter’s starting line-up. Up until tonight’s game, the Mets had won each of Bassitt’s last eight starts. He was 4-0 in August with a 1.65 ERA – never giving up a long ball the entire...
