This weekend will be one the New York Mets will want to flush quickly. Despite loading up at the Trade Deadline, the Mets lost two of three to the Giants to drop their second straight series. Furthermore, they’ve now lost five of their last six games. There were some positives sprinkled in among a sea of negatives. But, overall, this series was another step in the wrong direction for the...
The Mets are designating relief pitcher Rico Garcia for assignment, according to Joel Sherman of the New York Post. Garcia’s performance on the mound for the Mets has been admirable, pitching to a 3.52 ERA in nine appearances. The right-hander pitched in both of the team’s first two games in their weekend series against the Giants, however, and with seven of the eight spots in the...
The Mets (60-44) brought their hot bats with them to San Francisco, scoring eight runs in the series opener against the Giants (54-50) in a comfortable 8-1 victory Friday night.

Redemption was the backdrop for the New York Mets’ series sweep over the Angels. New York took all three games against Anaheim at Citi Field thanks to some resurgent bats. Key players breaking out of slumps was the common trend throughout this series. Some clutch pitching also helped as the Mets moved back to the top of the NL East thanks to a four-game winning streak. A six-game road trip...
One out away from sealing a 3-2 victory, Ryne Stanek allowed a single to Nolan Schanuel to put runners on first and second, setting up a confrontation he would have liked to avoid. The stage was set for Mike Trout, who isn’t the player that won three MVPs anymore, but remains a threat. With runners in scoring position and two out, he entered Tuesday 10-f0r-17 this season. Maybe more on...
The New York Mets announced a slew of roster moves before their series opener against the Kansas City Royals on Friday night.

Winker, who returned from his...
After David Peterson finished seven spectacular innings of one-run ball in Game 1 of Thursday’s doubleheader, it was only a matter of time before everything fell apart. Charlie Morton had shut down a Mets lineup that had scored a combined 23 runs over their past three games. He was untouchable, and though Peterson matched him inning-for-inning, the Mets showed no spark. Twice, runners were...
The New York Mets looked like they were back on track after winning a pair of series against the Milwaukee Brewers and New York Yankees.

Blackburn missed the start of the year after he spent the offseason recovering...
The Mets are calling up right-handed reliever Rico Garcia, according to Anthony DiComo of MLB.com.
