The New York Mets should not name Francisco Lindor captain
So now that Francisco Lindor has officially been named the next captain of the New York Mets by Yahoo!, we can also bid adieu to Pete Alonso at the end of the season. Now, of course, it really didn’t happen as reported by Yahoo!, but if it did, it would

The New York Mets and MLB have changed the way pitchers are used…but not for the better
The New York Mets, and Major League Baseball as a whole, have completely changed the way pitchers are used. But is it for the better? The New York Mets were always known for the ability to produce great pitchers. I think that while it is somewhat true, it’s really a

Why do New York Mets fans hate Derek Jeter?
While the New York Yankees fans always had a disdain for teams that were bitter rivals of the Bronx Bombers, a la the Boston Red Sox for a very long time and, for a short time, the Kansas City Royals, the Mets fans always seemed to be more direct and

After the break, the New York Mets should just let the kids go out and play
OK so maybe it’s time for the New York Mets to call on all the young kids and put them in the lineup every game and see where they take us. Because other than Pete Alonso, Francisco Lindor, and Juan Soto, there is nobody else on this team that is

Why do we even care that New York Mets Juan Soto is not an All Star?
Geez…if you got a pay day of $765 million then the least you could do is make the All Star team, no? You would figure that if someone is commanding so much money…SO much money…that they would be considered, they would be included as, an All Star. I mean, you

The New York Mets are lucky to be where they are considering how bad they have been
The New York Mets will end the month of June with a record of 48-37, in second place in the National League’s Eastern Division, right on the heels of the Philadelphia Phillies, with the fourth best record in the Senior Circuit. The Mets should be downright thankful that they are

New York Mets suffer embarrassing weekend at the hands of the Tampa Bay Rays
The Tampa Bay Rays, regardless that they are a small (very small) market team, they have always had the ability to put together a strong showing…and they did that…embarrassing the New York Mets at Citifield where they have been virtually unbeatable in 2025. If you stick to the old adage

The New York Mets Core Four has yet to match the prowess of the Yankees Core Four
The Yankees are known during their most recent dynasty for having their “Core Four” which included Derek Jeter, Mariano Rivera, Jorge Posada, and Andy Pettitte. (Personally, I would have included Bernie Williams rather than Pettitte but that’s just me.) The New York Mets could, potentially, have their own Core Four

Pete Rose is NOT the best hitter in MLB history…enough!
Let’s make one thing clear…Pete Rose was NOT the “best hitter in the game.” Not even close. I don’t understand how fans can even view him as such. The one thing that is true is that Pete Rose accumulated the most base hits (4,256) while playing in the Major Leagues.
