Now that the 2022 season is over for the New York Mets, we have been looking back at the year that was. After taking a more general view of the offense, pitching, and coaching staff, it's time to take a deeper dive into the Mets' players. This series will take a look at every player on the roster for the Mets at the end of the season from A (Pete…

The San Francisco Giants postponed a news conference Tuesday to introduce Carlos Correa after a medical concern arose during the All-Star shortstop's physical, according to two people with direct knowledge of the situation. The people spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Tuesday because the Giants have not announced publicly any…

The New York Mets were an embarrassment last year. Billionaire hedge fund manager Steven Cohen spent almost $200 million in payroll to finish 77-85, players fought with fans on social media -- and through the actual media -- and Cohen had his say publicly as well. GM Jared Porter was hired and then fired about a month later for inappropriate…

Jose Urquidy has struggled heavily to start the season, and some of the peripherals suggest it could be getting even worse. We like a Mets team that mashes righties to rough him up before the Astros' elite bullpen gets involved with our MLB betting picks. The Mets and Astros have been two of the best teams in the MLB to begin the 2022 season as an…

New York Mets management has arguably the toughest assignment of any Major League Baseball organization this offseason. With an expected crop of roughly 13 free agents, including two of the team's most valuable players in Jacob deGrom, and Brandon Nimmo and five relief pitchers, the Mets' front office must weigh keeping a contender on the field…

Dusty Baker finally got his long-awaited ring as the Houston Astros secured their second World Series title in six years, suffering just two postseason losses at the end of an outstanding regular season. Well done, Houston. Now, can you become the first back-to-back champion in more than two decades? An awful lot will change before Major League…

The New York Mets continue their five game road trip as they travel to the Sunshine State to take on the Miami Marlins in a three-game series that continues on Saturday afternoon. New York took the first matchup of this series as it got back in the win column with a 5-3 victory on Friday night. Here are my picks & predictions on this NL East…

The New York Mets are about to embark on one of the most important offseasons in team history. According to general manager Billy Eppler, team owner Steve Cohen is willing to support the club financially while they continue to try to build a sustainable winner internally. With a number of key players from the Mets' 101-win team about to hit the…

With the pressure on, the New York Mets delivered in Game 2 on Saturday night to force a series-deciding Game 3 against the San Diego Padres on Sunday evening at Citi Field. The first pitch for Padres vs Mets is scheduled for 7:07 PM ET. On the hill, it will be Joe Musgrove against Chris Bassitt, two righties who both enjoyed fantastic seasons for…

Just one season ago, the Atlanta Braves proved how important a team's bullpen can be in today's MLB during their World Series run. Postseason games can be won or lost by arms coming out of the back-end of the'pen and this year 11 of the 12 teams playing for the title finished the regular season with the top-14 bullpens by ERA. While some starters…

The Wild Card is upon us! The New York Mets host the San Diego Padres for the best of three games at Citi Field. It's time to continue our MLB odds series with a Padres-Mets series prediction and pick. The Padres are a sleeper team heading into the postseason. They finished second in a tough NL West Division that was dominated by the Los Angeles…

The Mets front office has received some much-deserved scrutiny this year for their handling of the bullpen-first for entering the season without further shoring up potential holes amongst the relief options, and then for not doing enough to fill said holes at the trading deadline. It's hard to call the production they've received from the bullpen…

I want to revisit the deal that brought Edwin Diaz to the Mets as a vehicle to discuss the club's first trade deadline with Billy Eppler as general manager. There are three items to drill down upon: 1. I am not sure if we were always this impatient as a society in general and in sports in specific or if social media/confrontational sports-talk…

With just 20 games left to play in the regular season as of Tuesday night, the New York Mets are going to have to figure out what their pitching staff in the postseason will look like. Per league rules, rosters will revert back to 26 players and each team can only carry a maximum of 13 pitchers during the playoffs. At 89-53, the Mets' magic number…

With a new year upon us, it's time to once again predict what may happen with the Mets - which, because it's the Mets, can be quite difficult. This time around, we'll have 22 predictions for 2022. We'll touch on everything from players to the manager to the team as a whole. MLB implemented a lockout, which means baseball is on hold. But that won't…

No. 4 Seattle Mariners over No. 5 Tampa Bay Rays These two teams are neck-and-neck right now, virtually tied for the AL's No. 4 seed. But based on the difficulty of their respective remaining schedules, Seattle should finish comfortably ahead of Tampa Bay to secure home field for the entirety of this best-of-three series. And that's a huge deal for…
