Remember way back in February when the Mets had World Series expectations attached to them after record-breaking offseason spending?

What makes New York City such a great place to spend time? Well, at any given moment, you can see a NYC cyclist riding around while balancing a freakin’ refrigerator on his head.

Saquon Barkley has been quite quiet of late. The Giants’ star running back did not take a single snap in the preseason.

For the entirety of his eventual Hall of Fame NFL career, quarterback Tom Brady tortured the Jets. But now that he’s retired, will he be rooting for them in 2023? Let’s not go that far, but he’s definitely expecting good things for Aaron Rodgers and the rest of Gang Green. Here’s what he said about … Continued
We still have about a month left of regular-season baseball left to play. But for many teams out of contention — like the Mets — focus has shifted toward preparing for 2024. Will it really be a “transitory” year? Or will New York be aggressive in free agency again? It sounds like that will depend … Continued
We have new rumblings about Aaron Boone and his Yankees future. And momentum for his retention seems to be building. “The word you hear [on Boone]: “It’s up to Hal (Steinbrenner),” according to The Post’s Jon Heyman. “Unofficial word is he’s still under discussion, but Hal likes him (and so does everyone else), so the … Continued
The Yankees began their road trip with a 61-66 record. After going 7-3 during that span (including six wins in their last seven), they come home to face the Tigers just one game under .500. If you’re thinking New York just faced Detroit, that’s because they did. The Bombers took three of four at Comerica … Continued

Jets cornerback D.J. Reed has a bold — and risky — expectation for the team’s defense heading into the 2023 season.
Everyone is off, but the big guy is still working. “Baseball does such a poor job of marketing its sport,” WFAN legend Mike Francesa tweeted on Monday. “How can the Yanks and Mets be off on Labor Day? Utterly ridiculous!” He’s right. Put aside the jokes about both local baseball teams stinking. How can there … Continued
It took a decade, but the New York Yankees have finally swept their hated rival Houston Astros. All they needed was, well, to let the kids play! Anthony Volpe, it turns out, was just the tip of the iceberg. Austin Wells and his epic ‘stache parked themselves behind the plate. Oswald Peraza finally seems to … Continued
Nothing about 2023 has been ideal for the Mets. Now in the final month of the regular season, it’s time to evaluate all aspects of the operation in advance of 2024.

In the early stages of the trade deadline rumor mill, it seemed like Cubs outfielder Cody Bellinger was destined to join the Yankees.

The Yankees did what many thought was impossible earlier this week: they released third baseman Josh Donaldson. This was met with elation and relief from Yankee fans.

The trade rumors surrounding Mets first baseman Pete Alonso right now are pretty ridiculous. Is he part of this imaginary “toxic” clubhouse culture in Queens? Is it all but a formality that he’s getting traded this winter? Or, could there be an agreement on a long-term extension? I’m already tired of it all, and the … Continued
Nothing about the 2023 season has been ideal for the Mets. Any hope of watching New York turn things around ended with the front office’s substantial trade-deadline sell-off. But, trading away so many players gives others an unexpected opportunity to show what they’re capable of. That’s exactly what DJ Stewart has done. The 29-year-old was … Continued
He nevah said dat! WFAN circled the wagons Wednesday after basically the entire Mets organization trashed midday host Sal Licata for alleging Pete Alonso is toxic in the Amazins’ clubhouse. Afternoon drive voice Shaun Morash led the way. The pertinent parts of his comments: There is not a soul on this radio station that said … Continued
Aaron Rodgers being the Jets’ starting quarterback has been a dream come true so far for the organization. Sure, no regular-season games have been played yet. But still, his mere presence has changed just about everything for Gang Green. Could it end up being a messy divorce, though? According to Peter Bukowski of Locked On … Continued
The moment Yankees fans have been waiting years for is finally upon us. Top prospect Jasson Dominguez is expected to make his big-league debut when rosters expand on Friday.

For about five months, the 2022 season was a dream for Mets fans. It came crashing down very fast in September and October. Despite all New York’s offseason spending last winter, it didn’t lead to 2023 success before Billy Eppler traded away several players at the deadline. I know looking back to last season doesn’t … Continued
Mets fans have been waiting pretty much all year to see top prospect Ronny Mauricio get called up to the big leagues. We’ve also had to endure way too many false alarms along the way. But it’s finally happening, folks (we think). Joel Sherman of the New York Post says below that our wait is over: The … Continued

As the Yankees turn … From NJ.com columnist Bob Klapisch: I heard weeks ago [Aaron Boone] would be in trouble if the Yankees were to finish in last place. That door, I’m told, is still “wide open.” Klapisch previously reported Boone’s sacking was a “foregone conclusion” as the Bombers slide toward their first losing season … Continued

Three bold predictions for the New York Giants ahead of their Sept. 10 regular-season opener vs. the Cowboys.
Playing a full season of professional baseball is no joke. It’s a six-month marathon that can feel like a slog. To break out of a funk, sometimes all a player needs is one specific spark to get them going again. Did the New York Post report from earlier this month about Mets prospect Ronny Mauricio … Continued
The Mets are not amused with Sal Licata. The WFAN midday host alleged the Amazins “have a toxic clubhouse” a few weeks back, and that “Pete Alonso is part of that.” That claim did not go over well in the clubhouse, according to Fox Sports. “That’s ridiculous,” Mets bench coach Eric Chavez said. “Whoever said … Continued
Slugging first baseman Pete Alonso needs to spend all (or, at least virtually all) of his career with the Mets. However, reports and rumors over the past few weeks have stated the chances of that happening are low. But amid the trade buzz circulating around Alonso’s name, it sounds like his camp and New York … Continued
Everson Pereira has been a Yankee for exactly one week and what I’ll say next will shock you: He’s exactly where he needs to be in his development. Yes, you read that correctly.

Mets owner Steve Cohen said it when he first took control of the team in November 2020. He planned on honoring franchise history more than the previous regime.
