The Mets get walked off again by a clutch White Sox team

The White Sox have developed a flair for dramatic finishes at the Mets’ expense. For the second time in three days, the White Sox walked off the Mets with a home run, as New York took a tough 2-1 loss Sunday in Chicago. Tristan Peters blasted his first career walk-off homer to center field off […]

Mets Daily Prospect Report, 8/23/26: Only wins

Triple A: Syracuse Mets (63 – 61) SYRACUSE 3, WOOSTER 0 (BOX) Three runs in the second were enough for Syracuse in this one, with RBI singles from Zack Short, Emilien Pitre, and D’Andre Smith. Jonah Tong got the win, though he wasn’t exactly impressive. It’s been a lost season as he continues to search for a […]

Mets Morning News: Sadness in South Side

Meet the Mets The Mets got out to a 4-0 lead in last night’s series opener against the White Sox in Chicago.

Mets book a stay at the Heartbreak Hotel

The Mets got off to a 4-0 lead, but the White Sox erased that lead with back-to-back-to-back home runs in the sixth and then hit another home run in the bottom off the ninth to walk it off. Both starting pitchers, who both happened to be named Sean (Manaea and Burke), pitched scoreless innings to […]

Red-hot Mets hit road for three with first-place White Sox

After finishing off a 5-1 homestand, New York Mets (58-70) head out on the road for a three-game series with the AL Central-leading Chicago White Sox (66-61).

Mets Morning News: A quick three-game trip to the South Side

Meet the Mets The Mets had the day off yesterday after taking their series from the Padres, and having won 11 of their past 15 games, they’re set to play the first-place White Sox in a three-game series in Chicago this weekend. That 11-4 record since the break is tied with the Rays for the […]

Mets Daily Prospect Report, 8/20/26: A bad night for pitching

Triple A: Syracuse Mets (60-61) WOOSTER 9, SYRACUSE 7 (BOX) Jonathan Santucci got [looks up technical term] his tits lit in four innings of work, giving up six runs on six hits and four walks. Syracuse scored seven runs off of a strong day from Nick Morabito and dingers from MJ Melendez and Hayden Senger, […]

Benge and the bullpen edge out the Padres in Mets’ victory

The Mets continued their excellent play after trading away a bevy of players, beating the Padres 4-2. The Mets are now 11-4 since August 4th, and despite the season being more or less over, it is great to see the Mets’ young core and resurgent bullpen keep racking up the dubs. Robert Stock started for […]

Jorge Polanco to undergo season-ending ankle surgery, placed on 10-Day IL

The Mets have placed Jorge Polanco on the IL with left ankle bursitis. The first baseman/DH will undergo surgery and is done for the season, according to Andy Green. The team’s skipper noted that Polanco “can’t get freedom from the pain”, which he has been playing through. The team signed Polanco to a two-year, $40 […]

Tatis, Padres out-slug the Mets

The Mets dropped the middle game of their three-game set with the Padres, 5-2. The Mets’ string of good luck somewhat dried up tonight, although starter Zac Thornton gave them a perfectly cromulent start, five inning performance, allowing three earned runs on two home runs, while striking out seven and walking just one.

Mets Player Performance Meter: Pitchers, August 3-16

The Mets used a lot of pitchers in 2025, so I can’t say for certain that this is a record for most new names I’ve had to add to a meter in a single week, but it very well might be. The trading deadline saw the Mets trade two members of their rotation (three if […]
