Bo comes up big in ugly Mets win

It wasn’t pretty, but the Mets managed to win another game, topping the Twins in their series finale 10-8. Christian Scott was poor and the bullpen coughed a lead up late, but the Mets offense – largely dormant for the past three weeks – finally woke up and scored enough to cover for the poor […]

The Mets have placed Francisco Lindor on the 10-day injured list with a left calf strain, the team has announced.

Mets finally win a game, but Lindor exits early

The Mets’ losing streak has finally come to an end, but their 3-2 win came at a cost. Francisco Lindor, who drove in the Mets’ first run of the night and scored their second, left the game after the fourth inning with left calf tightness on the night that Juan Soto returned from his stint […]

Mets Daily Prospect Report, 4/22/26: He is the man right now

Triple-A: Syracuse Mets (12-9) SYRACUSE 12, WORCESTER 3 (BOX) Ronny Mauricio put Syracuse on the board with a solo shot in the top of the fourth- one of two runs they would score that inning- and continued swinging a hot bat all evening, going yard once again in the fifth and then a third, final […]

For whom the twelve tolls

The Mets led 3-0, Nolan McLean was perfect through five, and the Twins were throwing a spot-starter in Simeon Woods Richardson, who came into the game with a 6.10 ERA. The Mets also somehow lost, again, giving them an abhorrent 12th-straight loss. They are now 7-16. Yikes. The game was a game of two halves. […]

Mets Player Performance Meter: Pitchers, April 6-19

I thought this meter would be better than the hitting meter because the offense has really been the problem. But honestly? It’s not that much better. There are more positive grades for sure, but there are almost as many pitchers mired in the poop right now as the hitters, which is almost impressive. All of […]

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 […]

Mets Player Performance Meter: Position players, April 6-19

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 […]

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.
