Heart, head, and extremities all cast ballots in favor of the latest Mets Hall of Fame class. www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2025/11/20/h...

"The Polar Bear & Sugar" could be a long-running lighthearted action-adventure series still garnering critical praise after seven seasons on the air. Actually, for Mets fans, it kind of is. www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2025/11/17/o...

“They’ve filled critical roles from the moment they settled in. They’ve starred and starred again.” Faith and Fear in Flushing’s co-winners of the Richie Ashburn Most Valuable Met award for 2025 are Pete Alonso and Edwin Diaz. www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2025/11/17/o...

Saucy cross-pollenation between the consistently tangy @baseballandbbq.bsky.social and @franksantopadre.bsky.social, master chef at the meaty @funforallages.bsky.social. A treat for all ears!

That bone-chilling Saturday afternoon the Mets ALMOST signed "the greatest player in the world"...and the frigid Saturday night he ascended to the Angels. @andrewwyrich.bsky.social captures the pure, uncut angst in his essential @almostamet.bsky.social newsletter. I adored being a part of this.

"It's different when your team isn’t in it. You can go to the movies. You can go to the diner. You can think and talk about other things as well as nothing. You can also watch the ballgames your team isn’t in. Those can be classics, too." www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2025/11/08/a...

Still reflecting on an incredible World Series (and wondering why Kiner-Falefa couldn’t have taken a secondary lead just two feet further). www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2025/11/08/a...

Grateful to @defector.com for publishing a print version of my Replay Booth episode on a 61-year-old Mets mystery and for commissioning an illustration of Mr. Met with a pipe and magnifying glass defector.com/wilbur-huckl...

A truly Metsgasmic listening experience.

Maybe a Game Twelve.

It's a Game Six, but in Game Three.

In honor of what would have been Johnny Carson’s 100th birthday, LateNighter revisits 100 moments that shaped his legacy as the King of Late Night and defined The Tonight Show for a generation.

Your Cards of the Day: Topps gave the first League Championship Series (1969) the full treatment in the 1970 set. Note that all the photos of the Mets and Orioles are at home, despite the first two NLCS games being held in Atlanta and game 3 of the ALCS in Minnesota. @sabrbbcards.bsky.social

Bless his heart, he's got to be the sickest man in America.

Tomorrow is the 77th anniversary of the Steve Gromek/Larry Doby photo from the 1948 World Series. I wrote about it today--its importance in "Our Team" and how a research discovery almost sunk the climax of my book. Enjoy. substack.com/home/post/p-...

Some guys I prefer not to use in @immaculategrid.com. Tonight one guy seemed an appropriate answer.

The team with the frown is coming around to drag you down to the ground. www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2025/09/27/n...

With their 82nd win in the books, the Mets will post the 29th winning record in their 64-year history.

The Mets remain in playoff position, suggesting the wonders of the universe elude understanding. www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2025/09/25/m...

Trying to share some luck @mets.com 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

Luisangel Acuña has just tied the Mets single-season record for most pinch-running appearances with 23. He has 5 games to pass Rod Kanehl (1963), Leon Brown (1976), and Tim Bogar (1996). #LGM

On the bright side, Matt Shaw didn’t even need to abandon his team in order to attend the Mets’ funeral tonight

Thirty consecutive Closing Days attended. One invisible percentage point behind. #LGM www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2025/09/22/g...

Ah, the Mets and their complex relationship with their own destiny. #LGM www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2025/09/21/d...

A designated hitter feels a tap on the shoulder in the visiting clubhouse of a last-place baseball team and learns Destiny plans to be out of the Mets’ own hands soon. True story! www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2025/09/21/d...

"Can we follow you to the 7?" "How many runs will they get out of this?" "Wanna meet on the Shea Bridge?" "Are there bars in Woodside?" So many questions embedded within a single midweek day game. #LGM www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2025/09/19/p...

Peeking around corners one fine midweek afternoon and seeing one fine Mets victory. #LGM www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2025/09/19/p...

The Classic was a classic. The contemporary was less so. www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2025/09/14/l...

Sad that Jacob deGrom pitched against the Mets. Sad that Jonah Tong got raked by the Rangers. Otherwise embarrassing. www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2025/09/13/b...

How’s this for Orioles Magic? Jackson Holliday’s HR was the 4th time in the expansion era (1961) that the Orioles broke up a no-hit bid of 8 2/3 IP or more (@EliasSports) The 1st of those 4? 6/7/68, on a hit by Davey Johnson, who passed away today What a way to honor him 🫶
