Good Morning Mets Fans ! The Metropolitans had themselves a weekend to forget, getting swept by the Miami Marlins as the team has now dropped five games in a row. The Washington Nationals head into town today as the Mets look to right the ship against a division rival who has also underperformed in 2019. Patrick Corbin (4-1, 2.91 ERA) will take the ball for the Nats in what will seemingly be a...
Yesterday had all the trappings of being a great day at the ballpark at Citi Field. The sun was out warming the many fans that came to celebrate the recently reinstated Banner Day. Mets Rookie phenom, Rafael Montero was on the mound for the first game of a single admission doubleheader, and to boot it was Bartolo Colon poster day (albeit I had hoped the poster would show him in a string bikini...
