The annual MLB All-Star Break is finally here, putting a temporary stoppage to the Mets' abysmal 2026 season. Entering Sunday's finale vs. the Red Sox,
To say that nothing has gone right for the New York Mets this season would be quite the understatement. The team sits 16 games under .500 and owns the fourth-worst record in all of baseball.
The 2026 MLB Draft unconventionally began on Saturday this year. Saturday, in Philadelphia, featured picks number one through 135. New York selected three times on Saturday.
The Mets continued the churn of the pitching staff, recalling Zach Thornton and optioning Tobias Myers to Triple-A Syracuse. Thornton will start today in the final game of the first half for the Mets against the Red Sox, which will be Thornton’s third MLB start.
How many of the active MLB players to rack up at least 500 extra base hits in their career can you name in five minutes?

Even the most successful regular-season teams in Major League Baseball have failed to win it all. Here's our list of 20 such clubs that fall into that category.

A Montgomery, Texas native, Shane Sdao attended Lake Creek High School in Montgomery, a school that opened in 2018 due to overcrowding at the city’s primary school, Montgomery High School.
Aiden Robbins grew up in Yardley, Pennsylvania, just outside of Trenton on the other side of the Delaware River, and attended Holy Ghost Preparatory School in nearby Bensalem.
Texas outfielder Aiden Robbins was selected by the New York Mets with the No. 92 overall pick in the 2026 MLB Draft. He spent this past season with the Longhorns after transferring from Seton Hall.
Arkansas right-handed pitcher Carson Wiggins was selected by the New York Mets with the No. 27 overall pick in the 2026 MLB Draft. Wiggins impressed mightily for the Hogs as a freshman in 2025, but missed the entirety of the 2026 injury while rehabbing from Tommy John Surgery.
The Mets released Alex Carrillo and outrighted Guillo Zuniga to Triple-A Syracuse on Thursday, according to the team’s official transactions log.

The MLB Trade Deadline has been quieter in recent years, in part due to playoff expansion, but 2026 is shaping up to be a more exciting one with several big names.

Freddy Peralta and a handful of relievers figure to be the biggest focus of the Mets’ forthcoming sale. Peralta seems a near-lock to be moved before the August 3 trade deadline, while the team should field interest on the likes of A.J.

The season of torture for New York Mets fans continued Tuesday, with the team snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. The Mets entered the fifth inning against the Kansas City Royals at Citi Field in Queens, N.Y., with a five-run lead, but that evaporated completely before the frame even ended.
A well-known insider addressed a recent report that the Mets will look to trade Lindor this summer.
The 2026 season has been one to forget in many ways for the New York Mets, and that only continued in Tuesday's 16-12 loss to the Kansas City Royals.
Bichette endured a rough start to his Mets tenure, and he acknowledged in May that making the transition to New York was tougher than he had expected.
Barring what would be a shocking development, a Mets team that began Tuesday holding a record of 38-53 will sell multiple contributors not locked down via multiyear contracts before the Aug. 3 MLB trade deadline arrives.
Are the Mets preparing to move on from one of their superstars?
It certainly hasn't been the year that was expected from the payroll-heavy New York Mets. Juan Soto, however, is posting numbers that could be overlooked because of the team's troubles.
