Buck Showalter has been hired as the New York Mets manager, bringing him back to the Big Apple to take over his fifth major league team

Luis Rojas was let go as manager of the New York Mets on Monday after two losing seasons. The team declined its option on Rojas’ contract for 2022, making the announcement a day after finishing third in the NL East at 77-85 in Steve Cohen’s first year of ownership. The move was no surprise, the first of several significant changes…

Christian Arroyo snapped a ninth-inning tie with a three-run double and the Giants took advantage of a critical error by third baseman Wilmer Flores, rallying past the Mets 6-5 on Wednesday to stop a five-game losing streak.

A contrite Matt Harvey rejoined the New York Mets on Tuesday and apologized to his teammates after serving his three-day suspension for skipping a game last weekend.

Zack Wheeler pitched two-hit ball against the team that traded him, Michael Conforto homered and the Mets scored four times in the first inning Tuesday night on the way to a 6-1 victory over the staggering San Francisco Giants.

The series opener between the Mets and Atlanta Braves was postponed Tuesday night because of a steady downpour, forcing both slumping teams to wait another day for a chance to stop their losing streaks. The game was rescheduled as part of a single-admission doubleheader on Sept. 25 at 4:10 p.m.

Daniel Murphy hit an early grand slam against his former team, Max Scherzer pitched eight fiery innings and the Washington Nationals beat the New York Mets 6-3 on Sunday night for their seventh straight victory.

Jay Bruce homered twice and drove in five runs, including a tiebreaking shot in the eighth inning that sent the Mets to a 5-4 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies and halted their four-game losing streak Wednesday night.

Jordan Montgomery took a shutout into the seventh inning for his first major league win, Matt Holliday homered in his return to the lineup and the New York Yankees romped to their eighth consecutive victory by beating the Chicago White Sox 7-4 on Monday night.
