The scuffling Pirates shamble into Citi Field for series with the Mets

2 days ago | amazinavenue.com | Brian Salvatore

Vincent Carchietta-Imagn Images The New York Mets (26-15) welcome the Pittsburgh Pirates (14-27) for a three-game series in Queens following series in which each time faced a division rival from the other’s division. The Pirates won their only two games in their last ten against the Atlanta Braves who, quietly, have boosted their record to being just two games under .500.

Rick Scuteri-Imagn Images The New York Mets (24-14) welcome the Chicago Cubs (22-16) to Queens for a battle of two first place teams. The Mets begin a six game home stand, followed by six games in the northeast, followed up by nine more home games, so they are in a stretch where they can reasonably settle in after spending much of the last month ping ponging around the country.
Kodai Senga had a weird outing against the Diamondbacks

Rick Scuteri-Imagn Images It is very rare that a pitcher will struggle with control as mightily as Kodai Senga did early in yesterday’s 7-1 Mets victory over the Diamondbacks and not only win the game, but not give up an earned run in the process. In the bottom of the first, Senga walked two batters, but escaped without trouble when the first of those, Corbin Carroll, was throw out trying to steal second, and he induced a weak pop up and a ground out.

Rick Scuteri-Imagn Images After dropping the second game of their trip to Chase Field last night, the Mets rebounded in the matinee, trouncing the Diamondbacks 7-1 in their season finale. Kodai Senga had one of his best starts of the young season today, tossing six innings of scoreless ball, giving up just two hits while walking five and striking out four.

Brett Baty rejoining the Mets ahead of Diamondbacks series

1 week ago | amazinavenue.com | Brian Salvatore

Brad Penner-Imagn Images According to multiple reports, Brett Baty is rejoining the major league roster ahead of tonight’s Mets game with the Diamondbacks. While the corresponding move has not been announced, it appears that Jesse Winker will be hitting the Injured List, and the timing looks to coincide. Baty began the season on the MLB roster, and hit .204/.246/.352 with four extra base hits in 58 plate appearances.

Jeff Curry-Imagn Images Jesse Winker is likely to land on the Injured List after being pulled from yesterday’s first game loss to the Cardinals with an oblique injury, originally diagnosed as ‘right side discomfort.’ Winker is headed to New York for further testing. Winker made his first start in left field of the season yesterday, and appeared to injury his oblique while throwing the ball to the infield after catching a sacrifice fly in the fourth inning.
Cardinals 5, Mets 4 - Mets strand ten and drop the second half of the doubleheader

1 week ago | amazinavenue.com | Brian Salvatore

Tim Vizer-Imagn Images The Mets had a bad day twice over in St. Louis, dropping the second game of their double header 5-4 in a game where they stranded ten men on base. Tylor Megill started game two for the Mets, and ran into trouble fairly early. In the bottom of the second inning, Megill allowed a leadoff single to Nolan Arenado and, one out later, a two-run home run to Alec Burleson. The Mets battled back in the top of the third against Cardinals’ starter Andre Pallante.

Brad Penner-Imagn Images Before Wednesday’s game against the Diamondbacks, the Mets placed left-handed relief pitcher Danny Young on the 15-Day Injured List with a left elbow strain. This morning, news broke that Young will require Tommy John Surgery, and was moved to the 60-Day IL. Young appeared in ten games for the 2025 Mets, with an ERA of 4.32.
Blade Tidwell to start on Sunday in St. Louis

1 week ago | amazinavenue.com | Brian Salvatore

Photo: Chris McShane As the Mets are in the midst of their second string of 13 games without an off day, the need for the occasional spot starter has led to a few bullpen games with a Triple-A arm getting the bulk of the innings. It is unclear if Sunday’s game will be a traditional start or an opener/bullpen game start, but regardless, the person likely throwing the most pitches that day will be Mets’ prospect Blade Tidwell.
