According to manager Carlos Mendoza, the Mets are calling up Christian Scott to start Thursday’s game with the Minnesota Twins. Kodai Senga will remain in the rotation for now, while David Peterson will be in the bullpen for at least this turn through the rotation. Due to that, it is likely that a reliever will […]
Listen, there is no good introduction to this other than to just give you a trigger warning because if you read on, you will see the worst meter you have ever laid your eyes upon. And once you lay your eyes upon it, you will not be able to unsee it. I can’t. I don’t […]
Mets outfielder Juan Soto will return to the lineup tomorrow, according to reports. Soto has been sidelined since April 3 with a low grade calf strain he suffered in the first inning of the game that day in San Francisco while running the bases. The Mets won that game, the first of a four-game winning […]
The Kansas City Royals’ struggles to start the season can mostly placed on the offense. They entered Monday’s game last in MLB in runs scored, and the only reason they left that position was that the Mets had a day off Monday and the Royals had the benefit of the Zombie Runner in extra innings. […]
For much of Mets history, fans have been able to find some solace amid their misery in a simple notion: At least it’s not as bad as 1962. With the 2026 Mets mired in an 11-game losing streak, now would seem the perfect time to cue that sentiment once again. The 1962 Mets managed to […]

The Mets (7-15) will carry an unfathomable 11- (ELEVEN!) game losing streak into their series against the Twins (11-11). When the Mets take the field at 7:10 PM EDT on Tuesday, they will have gone two weeks since experiencing their last victory, a game they won in walk-off fashion on a Ronny Mauricio hit in […]
Meet the Mets The Mets return to action tonight and will turn to young Nolan McLean to halt their slide. Juan Soto should be back in uniform for the Mets soon, but Max Ralph pondered the question that’s on everybody’s mind: When exactly will Soto be back on the field? Jared Greenspan explored the history […]
Since the Cubs took two of three from the Phillies last week in Philadelphia, the Cubs swept the Mets and outscored them 18-7, and the Phillies got swept at home by the Braves, outscored 16-3. The Phillies’ flight to Chicago got in after 1 a.m. today after their loss to the Braves Sunday night. So […]
As another former Mets’ skipper, Yogi Berra, once famously opined: “It’s getting late early”. Fair or not, the writing is on the wall for current Mets’ manager Carlos Mendoza: His time with the club is approaching its end. It felt somewhat inevitable with last year’s collapse, and it appears all but etched in stone as […]
The Cubs had an excellent week after dropping the first game of their series in Philadelphia. Following that loss, they reeled off five straight wins over the Phillies and Mets and outscored those teams 39-13 in the five games. So they got excellent pitching and lots of hitting, too. Here’s who was hot and not […]
MONDAY The Mets were shut out for the fourth time in just 17 games this season. It’s only the second time in franchise history they’ve suffered four shutout losses in their first 17 games, having done so back in 1963. The Mets were shut out in back-to-back games for the first time since August 9-10, […]
There were no guarantees based on sequencing, but the Mets drew an awfully short stick for extra innings. You know, just how things go when your team is tailspinning. When Pete Crow-Armstrong struck out to end the ninth, it meant he’d be the placed runner to start the 10th. Once Caleb Thielbar escaped the top […]
Meet the Mets You bolt awake in the mountains of Carthage. You are not watching the Mets. It is 217 BC. You are the general Hannibal, and you have changed your mind. The future cannot come to pass. Rome must burn. Choose your recap: Amazin’ Avenue, MLB.com, Newsday, New York Daily News, New York Post, […]
Honestly? I thought I was going to be writing another “The Cubs didn’t hit with RISP” recap and that the Cubs would lose this game by not scoring, because they went into the ninth inning 0-for-6 with RISP. Thank you, Cubs, for proving me wrong. Michael Conforto’s RBI double in the ninth tied the game […]
For a while there, it looked like the Mets would finally win a baseball game. But they’ll have to wait until at least Tuesday to break their losing streak, as Devin Williams blew his save opportunity in the bottom of the ninth before the Cubs scored a walk-off sac fly in the bottom of the […]

Sunday notes… Cubs lineup: Mets lineup: Javier Assad, RHP vs. Tobias Myers, RHP Javier Assad has made one really good start and one really bad one so far this year. He has not faced the Mets since April 30, 2024 and a lot of those guys aren’t on the Mets anymore. No current Met has […]

For Dom Hamel, it is a bit of a homecoming. The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders right-hander was scheduled to pitch the second game of a doubleheader against the Syracuse Mets at NBT Bank Stadium in New York. Hamel spent the last two seasons in Syracuse, getting drafted out of Dallas Baptist University by the Mets in the […]
