Danny Abriano SNY.TV: Who should fill out Mets' outfield in 2023? Breaking down the options. Danny talks about what the Mets might do as Brandon Nimmo approaches Free Agency. While discussing the In-house options, he mentions Mark Vientos and Khalil Lee who are on the 40 Man Roster - again no mention of Jake Mangum.
Rising Apple:
- How much will it cost to win a Brandon Nimmo bidding war with the Rockies? "It is being rumored that the Colorado Rockies are prepared to give Nimmo a multi-year deal worth over $100 million. The former Mets first round pick is from Wyoming, the state right above Colorado."

2008 | The Mets waste no time in exercising their $12 million option on Carlos Delgado. After a well-publicized slow start, which strained the relationship with his then-manager Willie Randolph, the 36 year-old first baseman batted .313, blasted 24 homers, and drove in 70 runs during the last three months of the season playing for new skipper Jerry Manuel. |
2011 | The Mets announce on their Twitter page that the team is planning to move the left- and right-field fences at Citi Field closer to home plate by as much as 12 feet and lower the home-run line to eight feet. The Amazins, who have hit the fewest home runs at home of any major league team since moving into their new ballpark in 2009, will see the number of round-trippers dramatically increase when the new dimensions result in 21 additional homers for the team and 24 more for opponents |
1973: Tom Seaver of the New York Mets wins the National League Cy Young Award, the first time the honor has gone to a pitcher with fewer than 20 victories. Seaver finished 19-10 and led the league in ERA (2.08) and strikeouts (251).
2015: In Game 4 of the World Series, the Mets enter the 8th inning with a 3 - 2 lead at home thanks to a good start by rookie Steven Matz and two homers by another rookie, Michael Conforto. But the Royals manufacture one of their specialty late-inning rallies against Tyler Clippard and Jeurys Familia, with 2B Daniel Murphy committing a key error that lets in the tying run. The Royals score three in the inning, and Wade Davis then pitches two scoreless innings to seal the 5 - 3 win, putting Kansas City one win away from the second Championship in its history.
