Mets Daily Prospect Report, 5/1/26: Wenninger ways
Triple-A: Syracuse Mets (16-13) GAME 1: SYRACUSE 7, LEHIGH VALLEY 0 (BOX) Jack Wenninger bounced back very nicely from a relatively bat outing in his previous start, as he struck out seven, walked one, gave up just four hits, and didn’t allow any runs in five-and-two-thirds innings. By the standards of minor league pitching development, […]

The Mets have lost 17 of their last 20 games, fall in series finale to the Nationals
The headline says it all: the Mets lost again today at Citi Field, losing 5-4 to the Nationals, and have now lost 17 of their last 20 games. Something has to change, and quickly.

Sean Manaea and David Peterson show that the Mets can’t just stay the course
In the Mets’ loss to the Nationals yesterday, several of the team’s most glaring deficiencies were on full display, but David Peterson and Sean Manaea, the team’s pair of struggling left-handed pitchers, stood out the most. Neither pitcher looks competitive at the moment, and while the team’s lineup might be its downfall anyway, it sure […]

Mets take advantage of opportunities in easy win over Nationals
The Mets’ lineup took advantage of its opportunities tonight at Citi Field, as the team beat the Nationals by an 8-0 score. Clay Holmes pitched well, and a big error by the Nationals helped the Mets blow the game open, but there’s nothing wrong with any of that as far as the Mets are concerned. […]

It’s hard to see a turnaround for the Mets without Francisco Lindor
Making declarations about a baseball team before the calendar turns to May is a fool’s errand, but here we are. The Mets have been so bad to begin the 2026 season that it really does feel like their season has gone down the tubes. On top of the fact that they’re 9-19 and tied with […]
