  • 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…

  • The Mets 2nd half slump

    The Mets are three games into the 2nd half and issues have arisen. They have lost two out of three games to a bottom-feeding team in the Marlins. Pete Alonso has been dreadful. He has been a rally killer, either by striking out or grounding into a double play. The clutch gene he has had…

  • The Mets at the All Star Break

    The Mets have made it to the All Star Game break three games above .500. They are currently the third wild card team in the NL. The Padres and the Diamondbacks are both close behind them. But the Mets are in a good position to be in. They are going to play meaningful games in…

  • 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…

  • The Mets & Their Inconsistency

    Through the first month and a half the Mets have only had one good win streak. For the Mets to be competitive in August and September they need win streaks to happen soon. At least two streaks from May to early July. This is the only way to know if they are going to be…

  • 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…
