But that description doesn't do justice to what's actually happening mechanically, and it doesn't explain why this year's num...20164Sat, 13 Jun 2026 13:00:03 +0000https://grandcentralmets.com/news-rumors/new-york-mets/david-stearns-offensive-acquisitions-have-become-mets-liabilities-r20158/When asked what the New York Mets needed to improve upon this past offseason, president of baseball operations David Stearns said the same two words over and over again: run prevention. Little did he know that the moves he made prevented runs scored for his own team.  Stearns' first move of...20158Sat, 13 Jun 2026 02:08:03 +0000https://grandcentralmets.com/news-rumors/new-york-mets/mets-reliever-brooks-raley-is-breaking-baseball-analytics-r20150/Nowadays, the young, flamethrowing pitcher archetype seems to be the talk of the town across the professional baseball landscape. Players throwing triple digits with sky-high whiff rates are the hot commodity and apparent ultimate prerequisite in dominating in today’s day and age.

Well, damn it, make it your business to get to know them.

Yes, he has been a steadying force atop their rotation, but he hasn’t been the “capital-A” ace fans hoped he’d be. He hasn’t been the problem in a season that has gone sideways, but he also hasn’t been the solution. The best way to describe...20154Wed, 10 Jun 2026 10:50:02 +0000https://grandcentralmets.com/news-rumors/new-york-mets/mets-roster-central-catcher-carousel-r20159/After splitting six games on what feels like their 75th West Coast swing of the season, the Mets come home to news of their hardy starting catcher being reactivated.  With rehabilitating players starting to filter back in, no further games to play out of the Eastern and Central Time Zones, and a...20159Wed, 10 Jun 2026 03:18:00 +0000https://grandcentralmets.com/news-rumors/new-york-mets/marcus-semien-has-remembered-how-to-hit-like-a-star-r20156/When the New York Mets brought in Marcus Semien, the expectation was never that he would carry the offense by himself. They also didn't need him to immediately replicate his MVP-caliber seasons. What they wanted was stability: a hitter capable of controlling the strike zone, producing quality co...20156Tue, 09 Jun 2026 16:07:02 +0000https://grandcentralmets.com/news-rumors/new-york-mets/jorge-polancos-setback-robs-mets-of-possible-offensive-spark-r20144/The New York Mets opened their season on March 25. Just five days later, it was reported for the first time that Jorge Polanco, their offseason signing to play first base most days, was dealing with a ‘minor’ Achilles issue.
