The Mets have finished out another frustrating week, filled with blown games and a lack of clutch hits. The series loss to the Nationals epitomized the season so far, with poor offense, spotty defense, and blown leads. The loss on Thursday was especially frustrating as they had a chance to win a series against a…

A frustrating week for the Mets has come to an end, and both the offense and pitching struggled. The week began with a series loss to the Diamondback which started off good with a Ronny Mauricio walk off win. The bats went cold for the next two games, despite a Nolan McLean masterclass in the…

The Mets have finished off their first series against the Pirates with a series victory. Opening Day was a solid victory, and Saturday’s win was a nailbiter.

The Mets and infielder Bo Bichette are in agreement on a three-year deal worth over $100 million. The deal isn’t truly for three years, as Bichette has opt-outs after the first and second years.

The Mets have traded Brandon Nimmo to the Texas Rangers in exchange for Marcus Semien. Nimmo, who was the longest tenured Met, was a fan favorite and had signed a long-term deal in 2022. His offense had stayed at a good position, but his defense in left field had severely worsened. The Mets in exchange,…
