It’s been a long season, and there are still 38 games to go in this roller coaster ride. That said, the Mets actions from yesterday MAY offer a hint at what we may have thought all along – the Mets focus is not on today, and it may not even be on 2011 either. Before [...]
Yesterday afternoon, Johan Santana became the first Mets pitcher to throw three consecutive complete games in a single season since David Cone accomplished that feat exactly 20 years ago in August, 1990. Over that span, Santana’s ERA is a mere 2.16, and one would think all of this is good, right? Not so fast. He [...]
As Jose Reyes goes, so do the Mets, as usual. There has been something missing from Reyes this season, and I didn’t realize what that was until this series. Reyes has had a good, but not great offensive year by his standards. I think he has been trying to get a feel for his past [...]
I could write about how awful the Mets offense has been, especially on their most recent 3-3 homestand. I could write about their approach to hitting overall, or write about how they rank nearly at the bottom of every major offensive category in Major League Baseball. I could also write about how they do their [...]
Jon Niese has had a good year, much to my surprise. I wasn’t entirely confident in Niese coming out of Spring Training – he has a decent fastball with a good curveball, but that wasn’t enough. Then, Niese began to incorporate a cut fastball towards the end of Spring Training, and his season took off [...]

For whatever reason this morning, I was thinking about Aaron Heilman and his tenure with the Mets. Heilman was the Mets first round pick in the 2001 amateur draft, and was projected to be a reliable starter in the Major Leagues when he arrived in Flushing in 2003. Well, his first season didn’t go so [...]
David Wright once again has hit the skids, as he’s hitless in his last 15 at bats. However, he remains third in the National League with 77 RBI coming into action today, and has far exceeded his disappointing season from 2009 with his 17 home runs and his .504 slugging percentage. Then again, in what [...]
Over his last nine starts, Mike Pelfrey has gone just 2-4 with a 7.51 ERA, averaging just under five innings per start over that span, which dates back to June 13. I thought Pelfrey looked better in his start against the Dodgers when he allowed two runs in five innings, as he had better mechanics [...]
Jeff Francoeur delivered a much needed solo home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Mets ahead of the Braves 3-2 in the top of the ninth inning, which proved to be the game winner. Of course, Francoeur didn’t have a patient at bat, as after he fouled the first pitch [...]
