Mets' top Draft pick can hit triple digits -- and his brother is a Top 100 prospect
NEW YORK -- If it’s velocity you’re after, Carson Wiggins is your man. Wiggins, whom the Mets selected 27th overall in the Major League Baseball Draft on Saturday, hit 102 mph on the radar gun last year as a 20-year-old. He’s following in his brother Jaxon’s footsteps as one of
Peralta tries calling own pitches again, but 5 walks follow

Vientos lands on IL with hand fracture after HBP, will miss 6-8 weeks

With 5th All-Star nod, Soto proves ASG is 'the place he deserves to be'
NEW YORK -- When Mets interim manager Andy Green broke into the big leagues as a player in 2004, he shared his first clubhouse with 40-year-old Randy Johnson and 36-year-old Roberto Alomar, two future Hall of Famers nearing the ends of their careers. Twelve years later, in his first year
Mets call up hard-throwing Hammer as bullpen shuffle continues
NEW YORK -- The Mets’ bullpen carousel continued Thursday with the addition of right-hander Dan Hammer, an electric arm with deep-seated control issues. Hammer, a 28-year-old whom the Mets signed to a Minor League contract in March, throws in the upper 90s but walked 17 batters over 20 1/3 innings
Ewing sets tone early (1st leadoff HR) ... Mets rally late (5-run 8th)
NEW YORK -- A.J. Ewing hit the first leadoff home run of his career on Wednesday. If the Mets have their way, it will be the first of many. That’s not to say Ewing is or ever will be a classic power hitter. He’s not, and probably won’t be. But
Warren (forearm) lands on IL; MRI yields encouraging results
NEW YORK -- What seemed like just a poor outing for Austin Warren turned out to have been caused by injury. A night after Warren gave up five runs in a 16-12 loss to the Royals, the Mets placed him on the injured list with a right forearm strain. An
Benge taps ball to the mound ... and turns it into Little League HR?!

NEW YORK -- Jorge Polanco, the Mets’ $40 million offseason signing who has battled Achilles issues since Spring Training and been on the injured list since April, made his long-awaited return Tuesday to open New York's three-game series against the Royals at Citi Field.

Drafting late in 1st round again, Mets eye strategy that netted Benge, Voit

McLean bounces back after rough 1st, then Mets survive late scare
ATLANTA -- Nolan McLean's latest start did not begin swimmingly. It ended up in a much better place. McLean allowed three first-inning runs to the Braves at Truist Park on Sunday, putting the Mets in an early hole. But beginning with a double play to end that inning, McLean retired
Which Mets could be traded? Let's break down their chances
ATLANTA -- It is July, which means it’s Trade Deadline season. Asked about the Deadline shortly after the firing of manager Carlos Mendoza earlier this month, president of baseball operations David Stearns responded that he hasn’t thought about it at all. At the time, that made sense. Stearns has been
Soto voted as starting left fielder for NL All-Star squad
ATLANTA -- At the precise moment Juan Soto learned he had been voted a National League All-Star starter, he was leading the circuit with a .971 OPS. That would be impressive in any context. That Soto was doing it for one of the worst teams in the NL encapsulates, in
Senga has swung from starter to reliever ... So what's the bigger plan?
ATLANTA -- This was not exactly what the Mets had in mind for Kodai Senga heading into the season. When the Truist Park bullpen door swung open in the sixth inning Friday and Senga came jogging through, it represented the sum of nearly three years of false starts and frustrations

After latest stumble, what is Peralta's Deadline value?
TORONTO -- In theory, Freddy Peralta is the Mets’ most valuable Trade Deadline asset -- a two-time All-Star smack in the middle of his physical prime, with three months left on his contract with a last-place team that loathes handing out long-term deals to pitchers. In reality, Peralta has been
With 415-foot HR, healthy Alvarez finding his stride in middle of Mets' lineup
TORONTO -- When Francisco Alvarez tore his right meniscus back in May, Mets officials bemoaned the fact that, yet again, Alvarez would not enjoy a long, uninterrupted runway to try to make good on his prospect potential. Yet Alvarez returned to the Mets in about half the time those team
McLean hurls 6 scoreless while looking as 'dominant as he’s been all year'
TORONTO -- For better and for worse, Nolan McLean has had about as uneven a season as any starting pitcher in baseball. Some nights, McLean is sharp, flashing the form that made him a Rookie of the Year favorite coming into this season. Other nights, he is confoundingly hittable. Tuesday
Robert plays CF, Polanco DH's in Triple-A rehab assignment
TORONTO -- Luis Robert Jr., a key Mets offseason acquisition who has been sidelined since late April, is finally making tangible progress from a lumbar spine disc herniation.

Mets' trouble with miscues crops up once again in Toronto
TORONTO -- For those wondering how things are going for the 2026 Mets: In less than three hours on Monday, Juan Soto and A.J.

Semien has Grade 3 hip flexor strain, to miss at least a month (report)
TORONTO -- While Mets officials aren’t publicly placing a timeline on second baseman Marcus Semien’s return from injury, they are reportedly bracing to be without the veteran for more than a month. “He’s got a little bit of time before he’s back on the field for us,” interim manager Andy
Mets dismiss Mendoza after 2-plus years as manager
NEW YORK -- For the last three months, Carlos Mendoza manned the helm of one of the most disappointing teams in baseball -- certainly one of the most disappointing teams in recent Mets memory. His bosses took pains to assure anyone questioning Mendoza’s job status that the club’s shortcomings were
