A look at the Mets’ rotation without David Peterson
In trading David Peterson, the Mets have dealt from a position of weakness, as their starting rotation was already more or less in shambles. With yesterday’s poor performances from Nolan McLean and Sean Manaea, plus the demotion of Kodai Senga to the bullpen and Peterson’s departure, the Mets have to rebuild their starting staff mid-season, […]
Mets place Marcus Semien on IL, recall Daniel Duarte and Ronny Mauricio
In what seems almost comically timed after an all-time terrible performance on his souvenir jersey night, Marcus Semien hit the Injured List with a left hip flexor strain. In his place, the Mets are calling up Ronny Mauricio, who was just activated yesterday after a stint on the IL with a thumb injury. To replace […]
Mets Morning News: Cubs and Vikings raid Citi Field
Meet the Mets Well it was unsurpringly ugly yet again at Citi Field. The Mets gave up 20 runs in the doubleheader while scoring eight to get swept in the two games by the Cubs. The pitching was awful, the defense was atrocious, and the offense left a bit to be desired, but hey at […]

Mets remain an embarrassment in another loss to Cubs
You don’t owe the Mets anything, and the way they’re playing, they clearly don’t feel that they owe you a professional performance. Mets infielders combined to commit a staggering six errors in a game that saw their team lose to the Cubs for the second time today and the third time in as many games […]

Mets lose to Cubs as starting pitching implodes again
Fans of Norway’s national football team were in town after their win against Senegal on Monday. For some reason, they thought why not come to a Mets game? They didn’t know much about baseball, knew less about the terrible energy that the Mets have brought lately, and were just there to have a good time. […]
Kodai Senga moved to bullpen

Senga struggles again as Mets fall to Cubs
