Mets Morning News: The Fog is Coming
Meet the Mets This place is a message… and part of a system of messages… pay attention to it! Sending this message was important to us. We considered ourselves to be a powerful culture. This place is not a place of honor… no highly esteemed deed is commemorated here… nothing valued is here. What is […]
Mets Daily Prospect Report, 4/13/26: Blowouts, shutouts, squeakers, and flops
Triple-A: Syracuse Mets (7-8) SYRACUSE 3, BUFFALO 2 (BOX) Trailing 1-0 for most of the ballgame, a late three-run surge put Syracuse on top in the eighth inning and Ryan Lambert, Joe Jacques, and Ofreidy Gomez locked it down for the win. Duarte, Baumann, Jonathan Pintaro, and Lambert combined to allow a single run over […]
Mets to call up Tommy Pham
The Mets are calling up veteran outfielder Tommy Pham before their three-game series with the Dodgers begins in Los Angeles on Monday night, per a report from Will Sammon. The 38-year-old signed a minor league deal with the organization in late March. Pham played in a handful of games with the Low-A St. Lucie Mets […]
Bats helpless once again as Mets get swept by Athletics
Yesterday’s loss—the Mets’ fourth in a row—sucked. No doubt about it. But we could at least comfort ourselves with the knowledge that the bats momentarily came alive, hitting three homers after falling behind early in the game. “Maybe,” we told ourselves with all the optimism that April carries, “this will be the turning point for […]

Mets designate Luis García for assignment, call up Joey Gerber
Having once again built a bullpen that was intended to have plenty of roster churn, the Mets have started churning those spots on the roster. Today, the team has designated right-handed reliever Luis García for assignment and called up fellow right-handed reliever Joey Gerber to take his place in the bullpen. The Mets signed García […]
Mets Morning News: Mets lose again, Lindor’s mental blunders continue
Meet the Mets Folks, the vibes: they are bad. The Mets dropped their fourth straight game yesterday after Kodai Senga got knocked around by the Athletics to the tune of seven runs in 2 1/3 innings against the Athletics. To be fair, the bats did subsequently show the most life they’ve shown in quite some […]
Mets Daily Prospect Report, 4/12/26: Extra inning fun
Triple-A: Syracuse Mets (6-8) BUFFALO 5, SYRACUSE 0 (BOX) Carl Edwards probably isn’t a starting pitcher. Nick Morabito had no hits. Ryan Clifford got the day off only to strike out in his lone at bat as a pinch hitter. It was a 5-0 loss. Double-A: Binghamton Rumble Ponies (5-2) BINGHAMTON 7, SOMERSET 6 / 10 (BOX) The Rumble […]
Despite the offense showing up, Mets drop their fourth in a row
The Mets managed to blast three home runs in their 11-6 loss Athletics, but they couldn’t overcome an early deficit and their recent skid is now up to four games. Kodai Senga got the start and had the worst start of his young season so far. After the Mets had jumped out to an early […]

Mets designate Richard Lovelady for assignment
You’ve read this on this site before: The Mets have designated left-handed relief pitcher Richard Lovelady for assignment. This time, he’s being replaced by veteran right-handed reliever Craig Kimbrel. The Mets first acquired Lovelady in June last year, and they’ve now designated him for assignment five times in less than a year. Despite having DFA’d […]
Mets to call up Craig Kimbrel
According to Jon Heyman, the Mets will call up Craig Kimbrel before today’s game against the Athletics. Kimbrel, a 16-year veteran who was an All-Star with the Braves, Phillies, Cubs, and Red Sox, signed a minor league deal with the Mets in January. Kimbrel is currently fifth all time with 440 career saves, just ahead […]
Today Your Love, Tomorrow the World Series, Episode 227: Bullpen Woes, So It Goes
Welcome to Today Your Love, Tomorrow the World Series, the new/old favorite from Chris McShane and Brian Salvatore. This week, Chris and Brian talk about the flailing offense and the regrettable pitching decisions that somehow led to a 4-2 week. Chris’s Music Pick: Frankie Sunswept and the Silver Moons – Nostalgia Brian’s Music Pick: Crosby, […]
Mets Morning News: Mets drop third straight, but hope both Polanco and Holmes can avoid IL
Meet the Mets The Mets were shut out again, losing to the A’s 4-0 in a game which saw the Mets’ scoreless streak extend to 17 innings and their losing streak extend to three games to put them at .500 for the season. Clay Holmes was excellent, but unfortunately was forced to leave the game […]
Clay Holmes exited Friday’s game with hamstring injury
En route to a 4-0 loss to the City-less Athletics, Mets’ starter Clay Holmes left the game in the sixth inning with ‘left hamstring tightness.’ Holmes expressed optimism after the game that he could make his next scheduled start, calling the injury “nothing major.” Manager Carlos Mendoza said that how Holmes feels today will determine […]
Mets Daily Prospect Report, 4/11/26: Rumble Ponies put up a baker’s dozen
Triple-A: Syracuse Mets (6-7) BUFFALO 7, SYRACUSE 1 (BOX) The Mets got three-hit by the Bisons in what was a pretty lackluster affair. Christian Arroyo continues his hot start to the season by driving in the Mets’ only run of the game, which was mercifully ended early by bad weather. At least potential bullpen churn […]
Mets offense continues to flounder in loss to A’s
The Mets, after falling to the Oakland Sacramento A’s by a score of 4-0, have pushed their scoreless streak to 17 innings. It’s not what you want. The good news, which is more existential than tangible after three straight losses, is the loss puts the Mets at an even 7-7 to begin the season, which […]

Mets wrap up homestand with three against old friend Jeff McNeil and the not-Oakland Athletics
After a less-than-encouraging series to start the homestand, the Mets (7-6) will try to conclude on a higher note as they welcome the Oakland Sacramento Athletics (5-7) to Citi Field. The two teams squared off in California last April, with New York besting the A’s in two out of the three games. The weather was […]
Mets Morning News: Run prevention!
Meet the Mets Nolan McLean was great, but the Mets’ lineup and bullpen very much were not as the team dropped the rubber game of its series with the Diamondbacks last night at Citi Field. Choose your recap: Amazin’ Avenue, Newsday, New York Daily News, New York Post, The Athletic Before the game, Carlos Mendoza […]
Mets Daily Prospect Report, 4/10/26: Scott shines, Watson fares well
Triple-A: Syracuse Mets (6-6) SYRACUSE 5, BUFFALO 4 (BOX) Cristian Pache hit a solo home run in the second inning to open the scoring in this one. Ryan Clifford doubled in a run in the fourth before a pair of Buffalo errors later in the inning plated the Mets’ third and fourth runs of the […]
Mets’ bats remain quiet, bullpen struggles as McLean’s start goes to waste
It seemed like a solo home run might be enough. With Nolan McLean already having put up six zeroes, the Mets had a 1-0 lead as the seventh inning began thanks to a solo home run by Luis Robert Jr. in the bottom of the first. McLean was dealing at the time, but he appeared […]

Mets give Jorge Polanco day off as Achilles issue persists
Mets manager Carlos Mendoza told reports that Jorge Polanco is getting the night off in the team’s series finale against the Diamondbacks, as the 32-year-old’s Achilles didn’t feel great after he played yesterday. Billed as the Mets’ new first baseman when the team signed him to a two-year, $40 million contract in December, Polanco played […]
Mets Morning News: David Peterson struggles again in loss against Snakes
Meet the Mets David Peterson unraveled in his second straight start, giving up five runs in the team’s 7-2 loss to the Diamondbacks. He managed to settle down and still give the team five innings, but the damage had been done and the offense couldn’t muster much in the way of a comeback. Sean Manaea […]
