Mets Morning News: May’s beginning to look a lot like April
Meet the Mets After coming back from a 3-1 deficit, the Mets fell to the Angels 4-3 in extra innings in Anaheim. Nolan McLean had the shortest start of his big league career so far and double plays doomed the Mets, as they wasted numerous chances and failed to come through late in the clutch […]
Ronny Mauricio has a left thumb fracture, will go on injured list
The Mets lost another player to injury in last night’s extra-innings loss to the Angels. While sliding into first base in the sixth inning, Ronny Mauricio appeared to jam his left thumb on the base, fracturing it and being placed on the injured list.

Mets Daily Prospect Report, 5/3/26: Austin arrives
Triple-A: Syracuse Mets (17-14) LEHIGH VALLEY 9, SYRACUSE 6 (BOX) Not a great game here.

The bullpen then blew it in the late innings, giving up seven runs from the seventh and onwards. Ryan Lambert was […]
Mets fail in the clutch once more, fall to Angels 4-3 in extras

The New York Mets (10-21) travel across the continent to face the Los Angeles Angels (12-20) for the start of (another) western swing. At this very moment, the Mets are having one of the three worst starts to a season in franchise history, being even more inept at baseball than the famously inept 1962 Mets, […]

Mets Daily Prospect Report, 5/1/26: Wenninger ways
Triple-A: Syracuse Mets (16-13) GAME 1: SYRACUSE 7, LEHIGH VALLEY 0 (BOX) Jack Wenninger bounced back very nicely from a relatively bat outing in his previous start, as he struck out seven, walked one, gave up just four hits, and didn’t allow any runs in five-and-two-thirds innings.

Sean Manaea and David Peterson show that the Mets can’t just stay the course
In the Mets’ loss to the Nationals yesterday, several of the team’s most glaring deficiencies were on full display, but David Peterson and Sean Manaea, the team’s pair of struggling left-handed pitchers, stood out the most. Neither pitcher looks competitive at the moment, and while the team’s lineup might be its downfall anyway, it sure […]
