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...
It proved to be an unwelcome return home for the New York Mets. Opening up the homestand with three games against the Arizona Diamondbacks, the Mets dropped two out of three to lose the series and fall to 7-6 on the year. While there were some standout moments, a hit-and-miss offense, poor defense, and some bad pitching performances ultimately doomed the Mets. Let’s recap everything in the...
Zero offense and sloppy baseball ultimately doomed the New York Mets in St. Louis. The Mets dropped their first series of the year after losing two out of three to the rebuilding Cardinals. That included an all-around bad effort in the finale. It was the lack of offense in clutch situations that really concerned, however. And it is something the Mets will have to try and fix on the fly in a...
That’s it. It’s over. The 2025 New York Mets are officially done for the year. Heading into Miami with their destiny in their own hands, the Mets fumbled the bag in the biggest way possible. They lost two out of three to the Marlins to miss out on the playoffs. While this team has been imploding for the last three-plus months, the way events unfolded this weekend will likely leave a...
It isn’t how you start, it is how you finish. Just ask the New York Mets after this weekend. All in all, it was another tough weekend for the Mets as the losing streak stretched to eight consecutive games. They also dropped their sixth straight series after losing the first two games to the Rangers. Things looked pretty bleak. However, some extra-inning heroics in the series finale on...
The 2025 season is proving to be a frustrating rollercoaster ride for the New York Mets. Days after sweeping the Phillies in dominating fashion, the Mets dropped three of four to the lowly Marlins. Consequently, all the momentum and all the hope disappeared just as quickly as it had returned. Not only is losing a series to a team under .500 this late in the season concerning, but New York also...
Are the New York Mets back? It sure feels that way after a statement sweep of the Phillies. The Mets got big-time offensive production, not to mention another star turn from their rookie sensation, to take all three games at Citi Field. New York has now won five of six. As a result, it is within four games of the Phillies for the NL East lead. Furthermore, the Mets have moved 4.5 games ahead of...
It wouldn’t be a weekend series without experiencing a frustrating New York Mets loss. Entering the three-game series against the Braves on a two-game losing streak, the Mets won the first two games to win the series and get back to winning ways. However, any positive momentum was halted on Sunday thanks to a sloppy loss to Atlanta in the finale. As a result, we were reminded of all of...
It is getting late early for the New York Mets. Time is running out for this team to prove that they are good and deserve to make the playoffs. A miserable series in Washington hardly helped to further that cause. After building some momentum with three straight wins, including taking the series opener against the Nationals, things seemed to be on the up. Then reality set back in once again. The...
Some of the New York Mets’ fatal flaws were exposed once again in San Diego. Following a 3-0 start on the West Coast road trip, the Mets were brought back to reality by the Padres after being swept. Not a whole lot went right. There was a pretty significant injury scare, too. All in all, this team still has plenty of concerns to iron out. And the offense remains the biggest concern as we...
The New York Mets are rolling right now. New York is now riding a seven-game winning streak after sweeping the Giants. The Mets were dominant in San Francisco, stretching their division lead over the Phillies to 1.5 games in the process. With the Trade Deadline this week, the Mets appear to be in good shape ahead of the stretch run. Taking all three games from a fellow playoff contender was...
Jersey retirements aside, this was not a weekend to remember for the New York Mets. After honoring former captain David Wright by retiring his iconic No. 5 jersey, the Mets dropped two out of three to the Reds at Citi Field. Granted, New York did win the series finale on Sunday to avoid the sweep. However, this weekend was hardly an ideal way in which to start the second half of the season. To...
