Five perfect innings. Then four perfect innings. Just not in a way that ends a losing streak. #GoodGrief www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2026/04/22/p...

Austin Warren for Closer #LGM

I’m touched. Hoping it brings good luck to its present locale! #LGM

Oh, Scooter.

Pending insurance run, Mets trying to win a 1-0 game at Wrigley for the 2nd time ever. First was Jim McAndrew over Fergie Jenkins, 9/11/1968.

The Marvelous Mr. Melendez! #LGM

The Mets are what their record over their past ten games says they are. www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2026/04/18/n...

It’s important to envision a Mets win, because it might be the only way you’re going to see one. www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2026/04/17/t...

We’ll take one of these today. #LGM www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/CHN/CH...

By Mon 4/20 we’ll be missing the Mets after they recover vs the Cubs. One way to get high on the orange & blue that off night: come to Barnes & Noble in Carle Place, L.I., where at 6:30 I discuss the Amazin’ “Metropolitans” with author @gittlitz.bsky.social. stores.barnesandnoble.com/event/978006...

Can you tell who or what the 2026 Mets are? Can anybody? www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2026/04/13/b...

The 2026 Mets have lived 10% of their regular-season life. They remain as blank in identity as they do on the scoreboard. www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2026/04/13/b...

DH notwithstanding, this is the kind of game in which Nolan McLean should bat for himself. #LGM

“A 3-3 record that could be better could also be worse. Mostly, it could be practically irrelevant in the scheme of the next 156 games, save for the nagging fact that every game counts.” www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2026/04/02/i...

Elephant in the room? More like three of them left on base every inning the Mets bat. www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2026/04/02/i...

“You could get miffed at Bichette if you wanted. You could dissect the decision to send Lindor. You could take apart bullpen tactics, too. It was one loss, which a person can mostly accept, certainly in March. So why the hell was I so mad?” www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2026/03/30/o...

White Sox center fielders become Met center fielders every few decades and yield delightful results. Here’s hoping Luis Robert, Jr., maintains the pattern.
