Good morning, Mets fans! Happy Independence Day to the best nation in the world! On Wednesday, MLB released the starting lineups for the AL and NL as they prepare for the 2024 All-Star Game, which will be held on July 16 at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas. While no Mets made the starting lineup, plenty of first time All-Stars got the starting nod and familiar faces continue to cement their...
Wednesday was not the greatest day in the New York Mets farm system. The five teams in action combined for a 1-4 record with three of the teams scoring two runs or less. However, Syracuse saw the brief return of one of the Mets top pitching prospects, St. Lucie was able to find a way to squeak out a close victory, and one player down in Binghamton may be starting to heat up with home runs at the...
The past week in the Mets minor leagues was a disappointing one for everyone except the Syracuse Mets. Syracuse was the only affiliate to win their series, and it was in large part because of Trayce Thompson hitting a flurry of home runs (six to be exact). Although the other affiliates lost their series, there were plenty of promising pitching performances in the lower minors, and Kade Morris...
It was a quiet night for offensive output in the Mets minor leagues, though Mark Vientos continued with his strong start to the season for Triple-A Syracuse. We will have a minor league game chat on MMO tonight, starting around 6 p.m. ET. Triple-A Charlotte Knights (6-11) 4, Syracuse Mets (9-7) 2 BOX SCORE 3B Mark Vientos: 3-for-4, RBI (15), BB (.978 OPS) CF Trayce Thompson: 2-for-4, R, HR (3),...
With Opening Day just nine days away against the Milwaukee Brewers at Citi Field, the New York Mets are in the process of forming their roster for the beginning of the regular season. This evening, as the Mets are set to play a spring training game against the St. Louis Cardinals, the team made another round of cuts. For this round, these lists of players include: RHP Kyle Crick OF Ben Gamel RHP...
The regular season is fast approaching, and while players such as Pete Alonso, Francisco Lindor, and Brandon Nimmo have their names written in pen on manager Carlos Mendoza’s lineup card, the same can’t be said for many others. Several players have made a strong impression in the race to claim the last few available Opening Day roster spots, and if they can continue to stand out in...
Welcome to the first 3 Up, 3 Down of the 2024 season! It has been a near-perfect start to spring training for the Mets, who are 4-1 in Grapefruit League play heading into Thursday’s game against the Astros. Granted, results don’t really matter all that much in spring training, but performances and trends do. There have been plenty of positives for the Mets on that front. Not...
Ah, yes. Just as we all expected. A 2.142 OPS. A .571 batting average. Six RBIs in seven at-bats. Two home runs in just three games played. Man, what a great start Pete Alons- Oh. What was that? We aren’t talking about Pete? Well then? Who?? That answer is none other than 32-year-old outfielder Trayce Thompson! Klay Thompson’s younger brother is tearing up the baseball field this Spring....
Good morning, Mets fans! Happy Leap Day! After Kodai Senga’s injury, which will have him on the IL through at least opening day, there was a lot of chatter on whether the Mets would be looking to add to their rotation. President of baseball operations David Stearns seemed to dismiss the idea right away, as he told the media, “I don’t think so” when asked if they were...
Good morning, Mets fans! The Cardinals are signing longtime Giants shortstop Brandon Crawford to a major league deal. The 37-year-old Crawford is expected to be the backup to rookie Masyn Winn while Tommy Edman recovers from wrist surgery. Crawford endured the worst year of his career in 2023, posting a weak .587 OPS and -1.3 rWAR. He finishes his Giants tenure as a three-time All-Star,...
The Mets (2-1) traveled to CACTI Park of the Palm Beaches on Monday for an intra-division matchup against the Washington Nationals. Max Kranick started the game, his first appearance in a Mets uniform, against Josiah Gray, who silenced the Mets offense in two starts last year (0 ER in 12 IP). Both pitched two clean innings, but after their departures, the Mets were able to take the lead first...

MLB is looking to use this as an...
