We saw curveballs that have never curved quite so much, sinkers that sink at an alarming rate, and sweepers that defy the laws of physics. To nobody’s surprise, it is the same story so far in...20017Sun, 26 Apr 2026 14:00:03 +0000https://grandcentralmets.com/news-rumors/new-york-mets/mets-roster-central-calving-season-r20019/  When Jorge Polanco hit the Injured list, it was with a right wrist contusion, but he had already been relegated to DH duty exclusively (along with forcing the Mets to deploy pinch runners on the occasions when he'd reach late in a game) by an injured calf. Now, the Mets' poor fortunes hav...20019Sun, 26 Apr 2026 04:00:02 +0000https://grandcentralmets.com/news-rumors/new-york-mets/juan-soto-has-never-had-a-better-chance-to-win-mvp-r20016/Juan Soto has achieved just about everything you can as an individual. He has six Silver Sluggers, is a four-time All-Star, has a batting title, a World Series ring, and a 15-year, $765 million contract. For someone who won’t turn 30 until October of 2028, Soto has already lived a full baseball...20016Sat, 25 Apr 2026 16:36:01 +0000https://grandcentralmets.com/news-rumors/new-york-mets/mets-bright-spots-breaking-down-the-numbers-behind-huascar-brazob%C3%A1ns-breakout-season-r20013/Despite the New York Mets’ early struggles that required them to snap a 12-game losing streak dating back to April 8, Huascar Brazoban has been a rare bright spot on the roster. The righty is in his fifth major-league season and has appeared in 10 games thus far. Over 10.2 innings, Brazobán has...20013Fri, 24 Apr 2026 10:54:01 +0000https://grandcentralmets.com/news-rumors/new-york-mets/mets-roster-central-a-cry-for-help-r20012/  As the best hopes for the Mets' 2026 season are currently on fire, only a fool would dismiss the importance of the return of Juan Soto. But his coming as a DH, and without an inning of rehab games, really ties the Mets hands, and suggests there are several more steps that will be needed t...20012Wed, 22 Apr 2026 22:10:00 +0000https://grandcentralmets.com/news-rumors/new-york-mets/mark-vientos-data-suggests-he-should-be-breaking-out-again-so-why-is-he-struggling-r20006/To put it mildly, the New York Mets' offense has been a dumpster fire on top of a tribal burial ground. They don’t get on base, they can’t hit for average, and when they do connect, they barely put a charge in the ball. As with any early-season slump, a lot of things have to go unexpectedly wron...20006Wed, 22 Apr 2026 10:51:02 +0000https://grandcentralmets.com/news-rumors/new-york-mets/anatomy-of-a-disaster-how-the-mets-reached-11-games-without-a-win-r20009/The New York Mets are 7-15 as of the week of April 20, good for a .318 winning percentage. That’s the worst record in the league, tied with the Kansas City Royals. To think that they were 7-4 on April 7 and have lost 11 games in a row is particularly painful for fans. New York is already ei...20009Tue, 21 Apr 2026 10:58:02 +0000https://grandcentralmets.com/news-rumors/new-york-mets/mets-week-in-review-11-game-losing-streak-puts-new-york-in-deep-nl-east-hole-r20007/New York Mets Record Last Week: 0-6 Runs Scored Last Week: 10 Runs Surrendered Last Week: 33 Standings: 5th in NL East 7.5 GB of 1st Place Transactions: 4/13 New York Mets selected the contract of LF Tommy Pham from St. Lucie Mets.  4/13 New York Mets...20007Mon, 20 Apr 2026 17:05:01 +0000https://grandcentralmets.com/news-rumors/new-york-mets/new-york-mets-2026-top-prospects-rankings-nos-11-15-r19987/The New York Mets are seeing results from owner Steve Cohen's commitment to improving the farm system.

Sitting at 7-12, whispers have started in the media about the status of Carlos Mendoza’s job.
