The calendar has officially flipped to 2026, which in Mets terms means two things. First, we are now legally allowed to worry about a season that has not started yet. Second, the excuses have expired. This is the point on the baseball calendar where optimism either matures into strategy or sits on the couch in sweatpants, scrolling through old box scores and whispering, “Trust the plan. There is definitely a plan.” I have maintained all along, often loudly, that David Stearns

" I've just closed my eyes again Climbed aboard the Dream Weaver train Driver, take away my worries of today And leave tomorrow behind " Gary Wright 1975 Yesterday it was Fleetwood Mac’s Rumours and Led Zeppelin’s “Dazed and Confused.” Today it’s Gary Wright’s Dream Weaver. That’s quite a musical pattern we’ve got going here—my apologies for the earworm. Not sure how many Mets fans were dreaming about signing Luke Weaver this offseason. If your REM sleep visions were more “Co

If you’ve ever wondered what it looks like when a former Rookie of the Year, two-time Reliever of the Year, and owner of a pitch that defies both gravity and the Department of Transportation’s approved flight patterns officially becomes a New York Met, Devin Williams gave us the full show in his introductory presser today.

Welcome back to Sunday School: Forgotten Faces of Flushing, our weekly rummage through the Mets’ attic, where we dust off the bubble-gum cards and game-used jerseys of the guys who made you squint and go, “Wait… didn’t he play for us?” Last week, we looked back at Brian Cole, the five-tool comet who blazed through the Mets’ system before tragedy cut his story short. This week, we go back to the early ’80s before Doc, before Darryl, before the Home Run Apple even knew how to

Welcome back to Sunday School: Forgotten Faces of Flushing, our weekly rummage through the Mets’ attic, where the dust smells like pine tar and nostalgia, and where we occasionally find something we forgot we ever owned. Last week, we wandered off the basepaths entirely and into the barnyard, revisiting Homer the Beagle and Mettle the Mule , the two mascots who barked, brayed, and did their best to distract us from box scores that sometimes made you want to cover your eyes.
