deGrom Day goes horribly wrong, Mets lose on play at the plate

Jeff McNeil’s heroic catch and Tomas Nido’s career day keep Mets in the postseason picture

I know I’m not the only one who figured that the Mets were doomed when David Peterson started Thursday’s matinee by walking Trea Turner. The impending sense of dread only worsened when Adam Eaton reached on a Tomas Nido throwing … Continue reading

Don’t let Pete Alonso get hot

It’s no secret that Pete Alonso has gotten off to a cold start this season. We haven’t see the ridiculous power that fueled his record-breaking 2019 campaign. Other Mets have helped pick up the slack, like J.D. Davis, Michael Conforto … Continue reading

Vintage defense carries Rick Porcello and Mets to victory

I knew it was smart leaving the door open for a Mets victory yesterday, and the boys pulled it off, defeating Max Scherzer and the Nationals 3-1 to split their two-game series in Washington. Sure, the Mets caught a break … Continue reading

Depleted Mets can’t get a winning streak started in Washington

Yesterday we found out that Robinson Cano, Jeff McNeil, and Amed Rosario would be out of the starting lineup when the Mets started a two-game series vs. the Nationals. So far, two of those players have avoided the injured list, … Continue reading

Cespedes is gone, but the Mets are back in the win column

I had a feeling that getting rid of that negative vibes machine Yoenis Cespedes would lead to good things for the Mets. It wasn’t just because Jacob deGrom was on the mound last night. Besides, there was scientific evidence that … Continue reading

That’s so Mets: Yoenis Cespedes opts out without telling management

The Mets got a real live hit with runners in scoring position on Sunday afternoon in Atlanta, but they still failed to score a run and lost to the Braves 4-0. David Peterson had another encouraging performance with eight strikeout … Continue reading
