Folks, there’s no way around it. The Mets are not a good baseball team right now. And in the midst of New York getting swept out of Detroit by the Tigers, Jeff McNeil gave us a hot mic moment that every fan can relate to. Remember when everyone was feeling good after a 7-3 West … Continued
Two years ago, I half-joked that the Yankees should devote serious time to uncovering why they regularly struggled against the rival Rays at Tropicana field. Even more jokingly, this proposed effort was dubbed “The Florida Project” after the initial development phase of neighboring Walt Disney World. Something must have clicked last year because New York … Continued
Did you think the Mets’ series at Citi Field against the Washington Nationals last week was bad? Well, then what they did (read: didn’t do) in Detroit against the Tigers really takes the cake. This series began a 13-game stretch where it looked like an opportunity for New York to finally take off and find … Continued
Just a few days ago, it seemed like the walls were caving in on the Yankees (as ridiculous as that sounds in early May). Four straight losses, punctuated by some questionable moves from the manager will do it. Just as quickly as that happened, New York broke its four-game losing streak. And not only that, … Continued
We have big drama in Old Bridge, a Central Jersey town that has the right to petition for admittance into the Shore region if it desires. From NJ.com: Local police are investigating the mysterious dumping of 15 wheelbarrow loads of pasta along a creek in a residential section of Old Bridge last week, officials said. … Continued
The Rangers had their baggie day Wednesday. Gerard Gallant held a press conference, which is typically a good sign he will be retained as head coach. But then again, NHL teams change coaches like underwear. The veteran, win-now Blueshirts did just fall flat on their face with their seven-game loss to the Devils. And James … Continued
Michael Kay’s newest feud: Some guy on Twitter. And still no answer. That’s all you have. I never DM anyone anything I wouldn’t make public so this is fine but the fact I gave you the consideration of DMing you a response and you made it public tells me all I need to know about … Continued
Through injuries, rain, and Aaron Boone’s bullpen management, the Yankees broke out of their funk and won a series. Even better, it was against the rival Guardians. Three competitive games, all in which the winning team came from behind. Don’t let the standings fool you, nor New York taking the season series, 4-2. There’s still … Continued
Brian Cashman had a pretty good Wednesday. The Yankees won (albeit with two more injuries) and he got exactly what he wanted from his pregame press briefing. Fans may not be buying what the general manager was selling amid the Bombers’ rocky start. But local columnists are. Which is the point. One of the big … Continued
The 2023 MLB season is a month old and in a highly unprecedented turn of events, the Yankees do not have a closer. No, seriously. It’s true. It was a good run of Mariano Rivera, David Robertson, Andrew Miller, Aroldis Chapman and then Clay Holmes last season. Holmes even earned an All-Star selection thanks to … Continued
Through the rain, more injuries, and playing .500 ball through the first month of the season, and a Jose Trevino walk-off, the Yankees finally won a series again. Wednesday’s 4-3 extra-innings win over the Guardians didn’t come easy. Harrison Bader, fresh off the injured list, exited the game after a scary outfield collision and is … Continued
The Giants entered this past offseason with a few things on their to-do list. Outside of retaining guys like Daniel Jones and Saquon Barkley, New York had to acquire players who could add firepower to the offense. One of the ways in which Joe Schoen got that done was by making a trade for Darren … Continued
Not many things have been going right for the Yankees to start the 2023 season. Sure, they own a 16-15 record, but that’s accompanied by being 8.5 games back of the Tampa Bay Rays and in the American League East basement. One consistent bright spot since Opening Day, though, has been starting pitcher Gerrit Cole. … Continued
Bill Belichick hates the Jets. Everyone knows that. But does he hate them enough that he would cut the Steelers a sweetheart NFL draft deal in order to screw over Gang Green? That’s what people inside the league apparently believe. A quick recap: The Patriots had the No. 14 pick in last week’s draft. The … Continued
Didi Gregorius had the honor of playing shortstop for the Yankees right after Derek Jeter officially hung up his spikes for good. Those were some big shoes to fill, but Sir Didi did a terrific job during his five seasons in the Bronx. Once he left Yankee Stadium, though, things haven’t been nearly as smooth … Continued
The Giants have exercised Andrew Thomas’ fifth-year option but could soon be offering him a lucrative contract extension.
Aaron Rodgers gets all the headlines — and understandably so — but the Jets have made win-now moves up and down the roster this offseason. Even at punter. The Jets were expected to move on from the inconsistent Braden Mann. But replacing him with Thomas Morstead — an accomplished veteran with 15 seasons, a Pro … Continued
Apparently, all the Mets legends are returning to the field in video game form. First, it was David Wright coming back on MLB The Show ’23. Now, it’s Keith Hernandez in the latest version of EA Sports’ Super Mega Baseball. Here’s the trailer for those who want to see it: IT GOT BIGGER.Super Mega Baseball … Continued
While it’s only the month of May, life is pretty good as a Jets fan right now. The Aaron Rodgers trade is finally complete, and we’ve even gotten a glimpse of him throwing footballs to his new receivers. One of those includes the 2022 Offensive Rookie of the Year, Garrett Wilson. Here’s a glimpse of … Continued
Julius Randle returned and the Knicks overcame an inconsistent performance and performed when it mattered in the third quarter, beating the shorthanded Miami Heat 111-105. The East Semifinals are tied 1-1. It helped that Randle performed well too. He was in prime point-forward form with 25 points, 11 rebounds, and eight assists. Josh Hart was … Continued

Compared to how things were going for the Mets at this time last season, they’re in a much different spot from the standpoint of performance. It could be a lot worse, though — they could be the Yankees right now. As New York starts a three-game series against the Tigers in Detroit on Tuesday night, … Continued

We all know the 1998 Yankees were a special type of championship team, and now Jack Curry has the full story. The former New York Times columnist and current YES Network analyst says as much in the title of his new book. The 1998 Yankees: The Inside Story of the Greatest Baseball Team Ever comes out … Continued
The Yankees are struggling right now. After blowing a ninth-inning lead to the Guardians on Monday, they’re 15-15 and sitting alone in the AL East basement. They’ve been ravaged by injuries, making the bottom of New York’s lineup look like a black hole. Do you know who could’ve helped with that? Utility man Matt Carpenter. … Continued
The Yankees are banged up right now. But Mike Francesa does not believe injuries are the reason for the Bombers’ recent swoon. Nor does he think everything will be fixed once those sidelined stars return. “The Yankees aren’t great when they’re healthy,” the WFAN legend said on his latest BetRivers podcast. “When they’re healthy, there … Continued
The phrase “Game 7” is the best there is in sports. The Rangers and Devils played a Game 7 to decide their first-round matchup in the Stanley Cup Playoffs on Monday night. It didn’t go well for New York, and many people were probably shocked it even got to that point. We can assume WFAN/SNY … Continued
After only playing five innings since Friday, the Mets were finally back on the field for real baseball games on Monday. Two of them, to be exact. New York split a doubleheader against the Atlanta Braves, and the kids — Brett Baty and Francisco Alvarez — played a significant role. Game 1 got off to … Continued
Someone alert #YankeesTwitter, because we’re about to have a serious talk about manager Aaron Boone. And no, we aren’t asking that he be fired. But we will criticize the Yankees manager for lacking basic common sense. Bullpen management has kinda/sorta always been his greatest weakness, but what happened in Monday’s 3-2 loss to the Cleveland … Continued
After a very weird homestand that included lots of rain, the Mets hit the road for three games in Detroit against the Tigers. Here’s what the probable pitchers look like for this three-game set before New York heads back home to Citi Field for the weekend. Tuesday at 6:40 p.m. ET: Joey Lucchesi vs. Michael … Continued
The Yankees got more rough injury news Monday when manager Aaron Boone announced righty reliever Jonathan Loaisiga had elbow surgery to remove a bone spur. Loasiga won’t throw for 3-6 weeks and is expected back in August or September. Jonathan Loaisiga will have surgery tomorrow to remove a bone spur. 3-6 weeks of no throwing, … Continued
The Mets are back to playing baseball games at Citi Field. It’s been a while, too. Their series opener against the Atlanta Braves was cut short on Friday before consecutive rainouts on Saturday and Sunday. During Game 1 of Monday’s doubleheader, SNY showcased Daniel Vogelbach and his new hairdo in the dugout. I’m not necessarily … Continued
We pitched Jets at Giants as a potential fit for the NFL’s inaugural Black Friday game on Amazon Prime. It sounds like we got the Giants part right. From NBCs Peter King: The first game ever on Friday afternoon after Thanksgiving is a very big deal for Amazon on the biggest shopping day of the … Continued
One of the great things about having Steve Cohen own the Mets is that nothing is truly off the table (outside of a retractable roof, for now). When it comes to acquiring some of baseball’s most sought-after free agents, the Amazins will always be in the conversation. The same can be said about potential trades, … Continued
After a weekend full of rain in the northeast, the feeling of optimism is back on this lovely Monday. It’s officially the month of May, the sun has remembered how to come out, and both the Yankees and Mets are playing home games. There are three games in total, to be exact. The Yankees will … Continued
Jets general manager Joe Douglas made sure to bolster the pass rush and offensive line early in this year’s draft.
Giants GM Joe Schoen landed a great player in Maryland’s Deonte Banks before making great value picks in the second and third rounds.
The 2023 NFL Draft is officially in the rearview mirror. The Giants entered this event with 10 picks at their disposal. New York ended up using seven for themselves, which led to the following players hearing their names called: Round 1: Deonte Banks Round 2: John Michael Schmitz Round 3: Jalin Hyatt Round 5: Eric … Continued
The 2023 season is a month old and the Yankees are, drumroll please, tied with the Red Sox for last in the AL East! Granted, the Yankees are still a game above .500 at 15-14 and there’s still plenty of time to turn things around. April rarely decides who wins it all. Plenty of baseball … Continued
It wasn’t a surprise to see the New York Knicks beat the Cleveland Cavaliers, but the absolute dominance with which it happened raised eyebrows. Now, what the Miami Heat did to Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks was something else entirely. After the first round and given the history of this rivalry, all eyes were … Continued
Steve Cohen is now in his third season as owner of the Mets. In that short period of time, he’s turned the organization from a league-wide punchline to a financial powerhouse. Citi Field has also become a desirable destination for baseball’s top free agents. His words and actions have given Mets fans hope and confidence … Continued
For a while, things were going well for the Yankees. At one point, they were the only MLB team to not lose a series, and even with a growing roster on the injured list, they were making it work. Things have crashed a burned a bit. Well, as much as they can on May 1st, … Continued
It’s technically baseball season, but New York City is straight-up hyped about the Knicks, folks. As they should be — this is the farthest the Knickerbockers have gotten in the NBA playoffs since the 2012-13 season. New York reached the Eastern Conference Semis that year before losing to the Indiana Pacers. So, you know everyone … Continued
Game 1 of the East Semifinals between the New York Knicks and Miami Heat reignited the longstanding rivalry from the ’90s. In front of a raucous Madison Square Garden crowd, the Heat came back in the second half to score a 108-101 victory. New York led at halftime but completely crumbled in the second half. … Continued

The New York Knicks are in the East Semis. As an added touch, their opponent is the longtime rival Miami Heat, led by the determined Jimmy Butler. In a way, this series won’t be too different from facing the Cleveland Cavaliers in the first round. The Heat were right behind the Cavs with the No. … Continued
