  • The Mets missed opportunities

    The Mets finished off a 10 game West coast trip this past Sunday. They went a frustrating 4-6. They lost a series against the Angels and in two games they either choked or couldn’t hit. The Mets did have a good four game stretch after the Angels. However, in an embarrassing series they got swept…

  • The Mets Trade Deadline 

    The trade deadline has passed and the Mets added pitching depth and a solid hitter, in Jesse Winker. The depth was mostly in the bullpen. Most pitchers are decent and have been consistent. The retooling of the bullpen  makes  sense because the bullpen all season has been in flux. Pitchers have been overused and or…

  • A disastrous Mets weekend

    The Mets looked promising from Monday-Friday by winning all five games. The sweep of the Yankees on Tuesday and Wednesday was big. Good fortune was on the Mets side for the first two games of the series against the Braves. The disastrous part comes from the Mets losing the final two games — including Saturday’s…

  • Are the Mets a real playoff contender?

    The Mets have beaten the Pittsburgh Pirates to bring them back to the .500 mark. From now until the end of July the Mets are playing to be a serious playoff contender for one of the wild card spots. July 31st is the trade deadline so in most years that is the point where a…

  • Subway Series

    The Mets have one more game before they play a two game series against the Yankees. The game tonight won’t affect the series due to the Mets having an off day tomorrow. Every Subway Series is important due to the media and fans. This year will be the same. But just like every other game,…

  • The Mets might be back

    The Mets have finished a 5-1 home stand. The sweep of the Padres this weekend was huge. The Padres are currently above the Mets in the wild card race. With the sweep the Mets are 4 games under 500. There is a chance for the Mets to be in the wildcard hunt due to the…

  • The Mets in London

    The Mets have split a two games series in London against the Phillies. The first game was a blowout by the Phillies. The game today was the opposite. It was close in every inning. The Mets rallied from behind twice. The 9th inning was a inning of ups and downs. The Mets took the lead…

  • Christian Scott’s debut

    Yesterday the Mets top pitching prospect Christian Scott made his MLB debut. He was very good except in the first inning. He only gave up 1 run. He is a heavy strikeout pitcher. His fastball and sweeper are overwhelming. He reminds me of former Met Zach Wheeler. Both are tall and have a similar windup.…

  • Mets First Week

    After today’s win against the Reds, the Mets are 3-6. The Mets could’ve had 5 or 6 wins but their offense and bullpen cost them. In almost all their games they have been competitive which is good. Standout players have been Francisco Alvarez,, Brett Baty and Sean Manaea. Disappointing players have been DJ Stewart, Brandon…

  • Mets Opening Day Struggles

    The Mets lost 3-1 to the Brewers earlier today. The few bright spots were the bullpen. In 4 innings they only gave up 1 run and two pitchers had scoreless outings. Their can be some positives about the starter. Jose Quintana limited damage throughout his 5 innings pitched. The 2 runs given up could’ve been…
