Hypothetical Mets trade deadline deals, Part 1

The 2026 season is down the drain, and the Mets are sellers. But that doesn’t mean we can’t have some fun coming up with trades ahead of the deadline. Let’s consider some of the more obvious pieces that are likely to be moved here in Part 1, before moving on to to the bigger names […]

Mets Daily Prospect Report, 7/19/26: Bombs away

Triple-A: Syracuse Mets (47-47) SYRACUSE 15, BUFFALO 2 (BOX) Luis Robert looks ready, both to return to the Mets and to hit the trade market. MJ Melendez continues to demolish Triple-A. And Nick Morabito looks like someone who should be playing over Tyrone Taylor for a team looking to the future. Note we didn’t say anything about […]

Mets lose a soggy, sloppy game in Philly

The Mets fell to the Phillies by a final score of 6-1 during a rainy game in Philly. The start time moved up an hour due the forecast, and whether or not the change threw the Mets off is hard to say since they normally play terrible without any help from outside forces. They immediately […]

Mets Daily Prospect Report, 7/18/26: Voit can’t be stopped

Triple-A: Syracuse Mets (46-47) BUFFALO 7, SYRACUSE 5 (BOX) Never seen this before – Syracuse had three homers and three errors on the night from the same three players. Cool little oddity. Luis Robert also played a full game in center as he nears a major league return (and likely trade). Unfortunately, Joey Gerber gave up two […]

Mets Morning News: Fire sale begins as the world burns

Meet the Mets The Mets looked good in a win over the Phillies in their first game back from the All-Star break, a game that was played amid the ominous wildfire haze that worsened as the evening progressed.

Mets best Phillies through the haze

The Mets, fresh off the All Star break and playing a game shrouded in an orangey haze thanks to the horrific wildfires in Canada, played a rather complete game to win their first game of the second half. The sole game on Major League Baseball’s docket, Christian Scott toed the rubber against Aaron Nola, and […]

Earlier today, Major League Baseball officially released their regular season schedule for 2027 as the Mets prepared […]

Mets Player Performance Meter: Pitchers, June 29-July 12

The Mets’ bullpen churn has kicked into high gear as we head into the All-Star break, as evidenced by how many new names are on the meter this week. There are even more names (we hardly knew thee, Dan Hammer) who were shadow Mets who never got into a game and therefore don’t appear on […]

Francisco Lindor, the Mets, and not giving up on elite players

Francisco Lindor’s year hasn’t gone as anyone would’ve expected. Sidelined at the very beginning of spring training and forced to miss the World Baseball Classic as he recovered, Lindor unsurprisingly got off to a slow start when the Mets’ 2026 season got underway. And just as he started heating up at the plate, he suffered […]

The New York Mets (40-57) return from their brief respite as they battle with the Philadelphia Phillies (54-43) for three games at Citizens Bank Park. The rivals squared off six times in June—three times in Philly, three times in New York—with Philadelphia winning four of the six games (two of three in each park). In […]

Mets Morning News: Let the second half commence

Meet the Mets With the Trade Deadline approaching the Mets will need to focus on retooling for the future with this season dead in the water. The team limps into the second half as one of the worst teams in the league and it’s not likely to get better any time soon. Brett Baty has […]

2026 Mets Draft profile: Cooper Dossett

Cooper Dossett was not only a well-known, high-profile high school prospect during his days playing at Har-Ber High School in Springdale, Arkansas, but he was a record-setting high school prospect; the right-hander set the Perfect Game national record by uncorking a throw from the outfield that was clocked at 100 MPH. A four-year letterman with […]

2026 Mets Draft profile: Gavin Guidry

When you think of Guidey’s from the bayous outside of New Orleans, the mind automatically shifts to Louisiana Lightning, but there is no blood relation between the two. Born in Lake Charles, Louisiana, Gavin Guidry attended Alfred M. Barbe High School. If that sounds familiar, it should- another Mets-related Gavin was also born in Lake […]
