David Peterson and the Mets’ bullpen combined to hold the Nationals to one run, which meant that Bo Bichette’s two-run single in the top of the third was just enough for the Mets to beat the Nationals by a 2-1 score and get out of D.C. with a series split. Peterson might not have been […]

Meet the Mets Zach Thornton’s major league debut didn’t go as well as hoped when he put the Mets in a hole early. The team did attempt to come back, led by two Juan Soto home runs, but the bullpen put the game out of reach and the Mets dropped their second straight to Washington. […]

The Mets continued the youth movement tonight, giving another young player their major league debut. However, the highest scoring team in baseball continued to score a lot of runs and the Mets’ bullpen couldn’t keep the club in the game. The Nationals beat the Mets 8-4, and while there were some valiant attempts at comebacks—mostly […]

The Mets have officially called up Zach Thornton, who will make his major league debut tonight for the Mets against the Nationals. The left-hander will wear number 49, most recently worn by Chris Devenski but most notably worn by another left-hander, Jonathon Niese. In a corresponding move, the team has optioned Daniel Duarte to Triple-A. […]
Zach Thornton is the son of a pair of collegiate track athletes, but his athletic career went in a different direction. Excelling on the baseball diamond, he attended Lawrence Free State High School in Lawrence, Kansas. Despite the modicum of success he had as a high school pitcher, he was far from a must-follow prospect. […]
Meet the Mets The Mets blew an early five run lead in Washington, losing the game 9-6 to the Nationals.

Triple-A: Syracuse Mets (24-21) SYRACUSE 9, BUFFALO 5 (BOX) Syracuse scored six runs in the first and made that stand up, with three more insurance runs in the seventh making things a bit easier. A.J. Minter tossed a clean inning as he gets closer to a potential return to the majors, while Ben Rortvedt – likely the […]
The Mets were coming into the second game of the Nationals series on fire. Between a five game winning streak, back-to-back extra inning wins, and a ten run twelfth inning the night before, they were riding high. And their de facto ace and rookie sensation Nolan McLean was getting the start, which was a good […]

In what appears to be a corresponding move for designating Austin Slater for assignment, the Mets are reportedly calling up outfield prospect Nick Morabito. Morabito marks the third Mets’ outfield prospect to be called up since the start of the season, and the third to have limited time at the Triple-A level. Morabito, who ranked […]

His father Brian played at James Madison University in the late 80s and early 90s, and his uncle John played at Wake Forest University and then in the Chicago White Sox’ minor league system in the late 80s. With their genetics and coaching, Nick took to baseball, […]

Meet the Mets The Mets won an absolute insane baseball game, becoming the first team since 1983 to score double digit runs in extra innings as they prevailed 16-7 over the Nationals in twelve innings. It was the club’s third straight victory and their sixth win in their last seven games. Choose Your Recap: Amazin’ […]
The Mets have designated Austin Slater for assignment, per Jon Heyman. The 33-year-old joined the team less than a month ago, replacing Tommy Pham on the Mets’ active roster in the process. In 21 plate appearances with the Mets, Slater hit .250/.286/.300 with a 69 wRC+, and like in-season acquisition Andy Ibáñez, he was emblematic […]
The Mets and Nationals played an absolute slog of a game that lasted a little over four hours, but the Mets won 16-7 in the end. And hey, that beats the alternative. The Mets got on the board first when Luis Torrens doubled on a ball that just passed over third base as it made […]

The Mets have pitched a lot better lately. The high-leverage relievers are in an excellent run of form as a group and with Christian Scott settling in, the rotation seemed to have found some stability. But then the injury bug bit again of course and things will soon be launched back into chaos. But on […]
The Mets will call up Zach Thornton to pitch in Wednesday’s game against the Nationals, according to Carlos Mendoza. It is unclear whether he will get the start or pitch behind an opener, but he will be used in some capacity. Thornton will pitch in place of the injured Clay Holmes, who suffered a fractured […]
Two days after calling right-handed pitcher Joey Gerber up from Triple-A Syracuse, the Mets have optioned him back to Syracuse and called up fellow right-handed reliever Daniel Duarte to replace him on the team’s active roster. Gerber did not get into either of the two games for which he was with the big league club, […]
The Mets’ offense continued to struggle during the beginning of this meter period on their West Coast road trip with the notable exception of the one ten-run game the Mets put together at Coors Field. But the Mets righted the ship at Citi Field last week, taking series from both the Tigers and their crosstown […]
