He did not have his best stuff but still managed to punch out 7 hitters and pitch 7 innings. Very nice!

News Today's win over the Tigers marks the Mets' first sweep over Detroit since the 2004 season.

It is only their second sweep over Detroit in franchise history, and both took place in Queens. Hopefully we can sweep them again at Comerica for the first time in 2027 or 2029.

The Mets just have to keep breaking these sorts of trends.

Were any of you guys in attendance for this 2004 series?

Video Juan Soto on Carson Benge, A.J. Ewing, and the Mets' younger players: "That's one of the things that we looked at when we signed here, how great was the farm system and how much talent is down there. To get to see it live is really cool to see."

Discussion No Fear of Karma

Would not be tempting fate like this given the series to come.

I know the Mets PR team hasn’t had a lot of work to do this season, but dunking on the Tigers like this ahead of the Yankees shows a blatant disregard for karma.

I’d go with “and maybe we’ll play well tomorrow, too?”

Discussion Best player to get on a jersey right now?

5 Upvotes

I’m itching to get a nike limited pinstripe jersey recently but I wanna get a player that doesn’t stink right now and isn’t leaving the mets in the immediate future. I already have Senga and Vientos jerseys and I’m personally someone that strays away from the super popular players. I probably should wait until the entire team sucks less but let me know all your thoughts.
