NEW YORK -- Brett Baty sprinted diagonally back toward the wall in right field, stole a glance over his shoulder and then turned back around, continuing to track the baseball. At the last moment, Baty thrust his glove out in front of him, only for the ball to sail past

NEW YORK -- Early in his outing against the Diamondbacks on Thursday, Nolan McLean dropped a curveball into the strike zone at 3,451 revolutions per minute, breaking his own record for highest spin rate of any breaking ball this season. Later in the game, McLean froze Ketel Marte on another

The Mets have been one of the busiest teams in the offseason as they look to return to the postseason in 2026. And there are plenty of ways you can catch the Mets this season.

NEW YORK -- Jorge Polanco’s sore left Achilles tendon, a problem since the opening weekend of the season, could eventually force him to the injured list. Manager Carlos Mendoza acknowledged that much on Thursday afternoon after leaving Polanco off his lineup card due to continued lower-leg discomfort. While no decision

NEW YORK -- Left-hander A.J. Minter took the mound Thursday for his first competitive appearance in the last 50 weeks, pitching a scoreless inning with one strikeout for Single-A St. Lucie. “It’s good to see him ready to go today,” Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said. “We started the clock, the

Every now and then, baseball presents a player with a second chance. Mets first baseman Mark Vientos got one on Wednesday. In the third inning of the Diamondbacks’ 7-2 win over the Mets, Vientos ranged into foul ground on the first-base side with room for a play on a Nolan

NEW YORK -- Even though things haven’t gone perfectly with their starting five in recent days, the Mets will not shift to their original plan of a six-man rotation. At least not yet. Instead, team officials have been pleased enough with their grouping of Freddy Peralta, David Peterson, Nolan McLean,

Not every star rookie makes an Opening Day roster. Take last year, for example. The most devastating rookie in baseball, Nick Kurtz, didn't join the Athletics until April 23 and slashed .290/.383/.619 with 36 homers in 117 games. Cade Horton arrived in May for the Cubs and posted a 2.67

NEW YORK -- Early Tuesday afternoon, after Ronny Mauricio reported to Citi Field for his first day back in the big leagues, manager Carlos Mendoza ushered the 25-year-old into his office. There, Mendoza delivered an uncomfortable message. Even though the Mets had recalled Mauricio to replace injured outfielder Juan Soto,

Here's a fun stat on velocity, which MLB's Daren Willman first pointed out last week on X. Entering play on Tuesday, the average four-seam fastball velocity so far in 2026 was 94.6 mph. Compare that to the beginning of the pitch-tracking era, in 2008, when the average heater clocked in

NEW YORK -- If there is a major quibble regarding the start to Freddy Peralta's Mets tenure, it’s the same one that has trailed him throughout much of his nine-year Major League career. As successful as Peralta has been, he’s also proven inefficient. So it was on Tuesday at Citi

NEW YORK -- Originally hopeful that Juan Soto could avoid a stint on the injured list, the Mets on Monday took the more cautious route, placing Soto on the 10-day IL with a right calf strain. While the move is retroactive to Saturday, the Mets announced that a typical timetable

NEW YORK -- Not only will Carlos Beltrán enter the National Hall of Fame in Cooperstown this summer, but no one in Flushing will ever wear his No. 15 again. The Mets announced Monday that they will retire Beltrán’s number and induct him into the Mets Hall of Fame in

Don’t put away the bunting just yet. As of last Friday, all four full-season levels of the Minor Leagues -- Triple-A, Double-A, High-A and Single-A -- have officially begun their 2026 regular seasons. But while many low-level clubs have held their home openers, many others -- quite literally half of

SAN FRANCISCO -- After the Mets secured their first road series win of the season with a 5-2 comeback victory over the Giants on Sunday, Chumbawamba’s earworm of a 1997 hit, “Tubthumping,” blasted through a mostly empty Oracle Park. This afternoon, it was a fitting coda for a game (and

Kodai Senga is off to an excellent start for the Mets in 2026. In his second start of the season Sunday in San Francisco, Senga allowed two runs in 5 2/3 innings, striking out seven batters and allowing five hits and two walks as the Mets defeated the Giants, 5-2.

SAN FRANCISCO -- Maybe the Mets were not just reciting platitudes when they said they had enough talent in the room to overcome Juan Soto’s absence as he dealt with a mild right calf strain. The Mets have scored 17 runs in 17 frames since Soto went down in the

SAN FRANCISCO – For five innings Friday night, Nolan McLean was perfect – 15 batters up, 15 batters down – making one wonder if the second-year right-hander could flirt with perfection in his 10th big league start. McLean knew better. He had fallen into a ton of deep counts because

SAN FRANCISCO – First baseman Jorge Polanco, whom the Mets signed in the offseason to replace some of the middle-order production they lost with Pete Alonso’s departure, continues to struggle with a bout of left Achilles tendinitis that finally landed him on the bench Friday night against the Giants at

SAN FRANCISCO -- Mets pitcher Sean Manaea finally took a step out of no-man’s land Thursday night, making his second appearance of the year in just the right spot to face a lot of hitters. That was good news for Manaea, not necessarily for the team. The “right spot” that
