Taylor Teagarden was called up to the Mets on Sunday from Triple-A Las Vegas for Catcher Travis d’Arnaud. In his Mets, MLB debut, he 1-4 with a Grand-Slam in a 6-2 win to stop a huge losing skid. Daniel Murphy also homered in the win.  Daisuke Matsuzaka is pitching very well now starting for the Mets. He won his 3rd game last night striking 5 and only letting up 3 hits and a run. He is 3-0 on the season with a 2.95 ERA. Very good considering the Mets pitching problems this whole season. Vic Black, Jeurys Famillia and Jenrry Mejia have been pretty consistent in the pen for the Mets lately. Good signs for the Mets, they are currently in a “anyone can take” division only back 5.5 games to the Braves and Nats who are tied for 1st. the mets are also 5 games back from the Marlins who are .5 game out of...

You tell me what happened, the Mets lost AGAIN on another BLOWN LEAD! The Mets were up 1-0 going into the bottom of the 8th.  But they let up 1 run in that inning and a walk-off in the 9th. Final Score- Mets 1 | Cubs 2 The Mets now have a 28-30 record after the loss. My goal for them is not 90 wins, but to stay consistent and finish over .500%. That can be done by hitting which the Mets have really improved on, Starting Pitching which is getting good and relief pitching. The Mets are really running out of options, most games they play are close so that when those relief pitchers step in. They are really important to this team because of the many close games. Tonight the Mets will face off vs. the Cubs with Dice-K on the hill for the Mets and Edwin Jackson for the...

The Mets kept piling on runs last night against the Phillies.  In fact, they were up 5-2 going into the 9th and scored 6 to win 11-2! The Mets have witnessed a serious power surge vs. Philly winning a bunch of games. They are now in 2nd place with a 28-29 record, 2.5 games back from the Atlanta Braves. Despite all the wins in the series, the Mets witnessed another injury to Juan Lagares who is now on the 15 day DL. Lagares was hitting great as always but it was very unfortunate for the Mets. The Mets had runs scored by Matt den Dekker (who robbed a Ryan Howard HR and threw a guy out at home), Curtis Granderson, Eric Campbell, Wilmer Flores, Chris Young, Dan Murphy (2), David Wright (2) and Bobby Abreu (2).  The Mets hitter also had some big games with David Wright going 2-4 with 2 RBI’s, Grandy going 1-5 with 2 RBI’s and last but DEFINITELY not least, the player of the game, Wilmer Flores who went 2-5 with 6 RBI”s on a Grand Slam in the 9th and a 2 run double! and he batted 7th!  Bartolo Colon had another good game going 7 strong innings, striking out 5 and only letting up 2 ER. Good signs all around for the...
