Starling Marte update from Buck Showalter: “A little progress but not enough to think something is imminent.” Showalter says the earliest Marte could return is Friday, but what he can accomplish over the next few days will be critical in determining that.

"We're hoping [the Braves] lose three and we win three. I ain't giving in. I've got a lot of confidence in Don Mattingly."

Today in Mets History Per Ultimatemets.com:
Born on this date:
- Dennis Cook (1962)
Died on this date:
- Joan Payson (1975)
Transactions:
New York Mets released Chico Walker on October 4, 1993.
New York Mets released Ced Landrum on October 4, 1993.
Ricky Ledee granted free agency on October 4, 2007.
Jack Egbert granted free agency on October 4, 2012.
1999 |
On the last day of the season, Rey
Ordonez extends the major league record to 100 errorless games at shortstop,
handling 411 chances flawlessly during this span for the Mets. The New York
infielder will add another game to the streak on Opening Day next season
before committing an error the next day at the Tokyo Dome. |
1999 |
In a one-game playoff for the NL
wild card, the Mets beat the Reds at Cinergy Field, 5-0. New York southpaw Al
Leiter goes the distance, limiting Cincinnati to only two hits. |
2006 |
At Shea Stadium, Russell Martin's
double kills a promising two on and none out rally as both Dodgers runners
are nailed at home in the Mets' eventual 6-5 victory in Game 1 of the NLDS.
Jeff Kent and J.D. Drew both try to score, but the relay from right fielder
Shawn Green to second baseman Jose Valentin to Paul Lo Duca allows the
catcher to tag each runner during their headfirst slides into the plate. |
2010 |
A day after the team completes its
fourth consecutive disappointing season, the Mets dismiss manager Jerry
Manuel and general manager Omar Minaya. Assistant GM John Ricco will be the
head of baseball operations on an interim basis until a new GM selects the
team's next manager. |
2019 |
In Game 1 of the ALDS in the
Bronx, the Twins drop a 10-4 decision to the Yankees, extending their
postseason losing streak to a major league record 14 consecutive contests.
Minnesota previously shared the dubious mark with the Red Sox, who lost 13
straight playoff encounters from 1986-1995, starting with the Bill Buckner game
against the Mets at Shea Stadium. |
2000: San Francisco defeats the Mets, 5 - 1, in Game 1 of their National League Division Series. Livan Hernandez gets the victory, raising his lifetime postseason play record to 5-0. Ellis Burks' three-run home run is the key hit for San Francisco.
2021 - The first manager to lose his job this off-season is Luis Rojas of the Mets, in a widely expected move - including by Rojas himself. The Mets want to name a completely new management team, after years of undeperforming amidst a constant soap opera atmosphere.
