NL East

It’s only Spring Training, but it’s still impressive watching the New York Mets roll out Max Scherzer and Jacob DeGrom.

PHOENIX (AP) — Matt Harvey stopped his three-game losing streak, John Mayberry Jr. had a two-run homer among his career-high four hits, and the New York Mets picked up a rare road win by beating the Arizona Diamondbacks 6-2 Thursday night...

NEW YORK (AP) — Dillon Gee pitched three-hit ball over eight innings, Chris Young hit a two-run homer and the New York Mets beat Miami 4-0 Sunday to take two of three from the Marlins. Gee (2-1) struck out six, walked four and threw 110 pitches — his high since May 30, 2012, against Philadelphia...

JUPITER, Fla. (AP) — Giancarlo Stanton hit a three-run homer off Gonzalez Germen in the sixth inning, and the Miami Marlins beat the New York Mets 10-7 Monday to improve to 5-0 against their NL East rival in spring training. Pinch-hitter Reed Johnson led off the fourth with a home run against Jose Valverde...

After Noah Syndergaard took the mound Monday in spring training against opposing hitters for the first time in 2014, one thing should be readily apparent to Mets fans. The Mets have a plan. They are in a position to be good -- sooner rather than later...

On Monday afternoon, I heard Bruce Jacobs discuss how one of his dogs got "skunked" over the weekend and he doesn't understand how someone is supposed to keep tomato juice in their house to cure the stench. He also dealt out some trash talk for Atlanta Braves fans, in preparation for this week's 4-game series at Citi Field.

Suffice to say neither the Mets or Yanks are as hot as the weather in New York as we get set to start the " 2nd half" of the baseball season. The Mets are looking for respectability. The Yankees seek another playoff birth. Both have 2 big questions to settle as the season picks up starting Friday...

Matt Harvey and Zach Wheeler have an even bigger hill to climb then anyone thinks. Not only must they win ballgames, not only do they have to help change what has become a losing culture, on top of this they must lead the Mets out of black cloud city...

Yes it's only 7 games but for us Met fans we get excited early and wait for doom later. I have little doubt the doom is coming, but after 7 games things look good, especially beating Roy "Doc" Halladay Monday in Philadelphia. I give you John Buck...

I love David Wright like any Mets fan, but as usual the Mets biggest news comes from something symbolic, but nothing that will make the team better for this season. David Wright was named as the 4th captain in New York Mets history and it seemed to excite the minions but on the field this means nothing...

Many have said of Zach Wheeler that he is the best pitching prospect in the minor leagues. The hype is huge. The expectations are enormous. And the Mets are cautious. Wheeler strained his oblique taking batting practice. This is big news around Port St...

Don't worry I won't be getting all loud and proud on the Mets. YET. But hey 4-0 is 4-0 and it's a nice 4-0. Good pitching, a few timely hits, a feisty club, and some smart play have the Mets leading the NL East. Now I know this won't continue...
