NEW YORK -- A day after suffering a head injury during a violent collision at first base, Mets infielder Jared Young was doing “as good as could be expected or hoped for,” according to manager Andy Green. Young was diagnosed with a concussion but discharged from the hospital overnight, after

NEW YORK -- This time two years ago, Mark Vientos was atop the baseball world. Just 24 years old, Vientos was enjoying a breakout season that saw him hit 27 homers in 111 games, becoming a focal point of the Mets’ lineup. He was about to have one of the

NEW YORK -- Frustration bubbled up in the aftermath of the Mets’ 7-5, 11-inning loss to the Orioles on Tuesday, as various Mets expressed disappointment in fans who spent the night cheering against their own players. The issue was most acute after Pete Alonso hit his 300th career homer in

NEW YORK -- After setting the Mets’ home run record late last season, Pete Alonso proceeded to add 11 more, upping the all-time franchise mark from 253 to 264. Then he left for Baltimore.

NEW YORK -- The anticipation of his Citi Field return properly kindled, Pete Alonso emerged into the public eye at around 5:15 p.m. Monday, clambered out of the Orioles’ dugout and began taking BP here for the first time since last September. As the Mets’ longtime first baseman stepped into

NEW YORK -- With Nolan McLean, Zac Thornton and Christian Scott lined up to pitch in the Subway Series this weekend, the Mets spent their time at Yankee Stadium providing a glimpse of 2027. While McLean struggled on Friday night, Thornton and Scott both thrived, the latter holding the Yankees

NEW YORK -- Aaron Judge probably wasn’t expecting much extra zip from Zac Thornton, one of Major League Baseball’s softer-throwing pitchers, in the first inning Saturday at Yankee Stadium. But zip is precisely what Thornton delivered. On an 0-2 count, Thornton challenged Judge with a 95.5 mph fastball on the

NEW YORK -- Nearly a year and a month into his Major League career, Nolan McLean did something he never had before. One of the sport’s finest curveball practitioners gave up a homer off his curveball.

NEW YORK -- Some eight hours before the Mets and Yankees gathered for a somber pregame ceremony at Yankee Stadium, a large black bus parked across town and opened its doors, dropping dozens of Major League Baseball employees outside Citi Field. They made their way up to the fifth floor,

NEW YORK -- At some point last week, Tobias Myers glanced at his calendar and realized it was September. That surprised Myers. Since mid-July, he had been with Triple-A Syracuse, seeking to correct the flaws that had transformed him from an early-season standout to a midsummer afterthought. Once a crucial

NEW YORK -- For A.J. Ewing, catharsis took the form of a 21-second trot around the bases. Entering Saturday, it had been 46 games, 59 days and 209 plate appearances since Ewing last homered, his July 8 shot against the Royals marking the rookie’s third long ball in four days.

NEW YORK -- With his 2025 honor in hand, Juan Soto now has more LatinoMVP awards than all but one man. Soto on Saturday received his 2025 National League LatinoMVP award from Latino Sports, a publication that created the honor and has administered it since 1989. Over the last five

NEW YORK -- For the briefest of moments, his leg coursing in pain, Juan Soto said that “everything went through my mind.” Hopping around, trying to shake off the discomfort after fouling a ball off his leg just above his right shin guard, Soto could hardly believe his luck: two

NEW YORK -- The Mets have placed outfielder Luis Robert Jr. on waivers, according to a source, giving other teams a chance to claim him and assume the remainder of his salary. New York has not confirmed the move. It’s a potential cash-saving move for the Mets, who are unlikely

NEW YORK -- When things fell apart for Christian Scott, they fell apart quickly. For much of Friday’s 3-1 loss to the Astros at Citi Field, Scott was cruising. He allowed one hit and three total baserunners over the game’s first five innings, inducing nine ground-ball outs from the first

NEW YORK -- Quick: which active Met leads the team in OPS? No, it’s not Juan Soto, though it would be him if he were not on the injured list. It’s not Francisco Lindor. It’s not rookie sensation Carson Benge.

NEW YORK -- For one more rotation turn, at least, the Mets’ plans are set. Despite a winless record and a seven-run blowup Wednesday against the Brewers, Robert Stock will almost certainly make another start for the Mets Monday in St. Petersburg, according to interim manager Andy Green. After that

NEW YORK -- Almost immediately upon hitting the turf, Francisco Lindor bounced back to his feet, looked up toward the Citi Field crowd and screamed.
