Luis Severino not good enough for Mets in Game 3 loss to Dodgers
Proper. But being decent isn't enough against these Dodgers. Luis Severino kept the Mets in the game, but not in Game 3 of the NLCS between the Dodgers and the Mets on Wednesday night in Queens. The Mets fell behind with two runs in the second inning, but were unable to recover from an 8-0 […]
Upstart Mets actually heavyweights in NLCS
Unless you have a crystal ball or special knowledge/belief in David Stearns' team, it looked like the Mets were headed for a transition year with the potential to play .500 baseball in 2024 .

Mets had a perfect response after getting bullied in NLCS opener
It was flattened by the haymaker. You can also blame jet lag. You can blame Jack Flaherty for pitching the biggest game of his life. You can blame the Angelino crowd for trying their best to recreate what the Mets enjoyed last week against Queens on behalf of the Dodgers at Chavez Ravine. You can […]
