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
New Yankees outfielder Jake Bauers made a tremendous diving catch in left field on Saturday, but at a cost. He slid into the wall with such force that he was removed from the game. What an effort. What a play. pic.twitter.com/U9R33o1GXh — New York Yankees (@Yankees) April 29, 2023 The Yankees were hoping Bauers would … Continued

Aaron Rodgers says he was all but ready to retire before he entered the darkness. We have to take the new Jets quarterback at his word. But we remain skeptical, given he had close to $60 million in guaranteed money coming his way this year. And if his reworked deal takes on the anticipated form, … Continued
The Yankees’ injury issues are front and center again after Aaron Judge left Thursday night’s win over the Rangers with a hip issue. Judge told reporters he is not concerned. But he also said he will probably take a few days off. And given how these things go, it is not hard to envision a … Continued
Being a Mets fan is certainly not for the faint of heart. While team owner Steve Cohen has given the fan base more things to be optimistic about than ever before, it’s still the Mets we’re talking about. Fans should be ready to get their hearts broken while also riding a roller coaster of emotions. … Continued
My first job was ShopRite cashier. I worked there from my junior year in high school until after I graduated college, even pulling double-duty for a few months when I was covering high school sports part-time at NJ.com. A grocery store is the truest microcosm of society. Everybody has to eat, so everyone has to … Continued
The Yankees continued their road trip at Globe Life Park on Thursday night, kicking off a four-game series against the Texas Rangers. Most Yankee fans are holding their breath after Aaron Judge exited the game early with hip discomfort, though. It’s hopefully nothing serious. But while we wait for any updates, check out this cool … Continued
When times are tough, baseball teams will do just about anything to break out of a slump. The Mets were on a four-game losing streak for the first time since September 2021, so they took a page from Major League slugger Pedro Cerrano’s book to wake up their bats. Between two losses to the San … Continued
Initially, I thought the Mets would use their series against the Nationals earlier this week to pile up some wins before their first matchup of the year with the Braves. That unfortunately didn’t happen, but now there’s a clean slate. This is the first matchup between New York and Atlanta since the Braves swept the … Continued
Try to follow along here. Yankees slugger Aaron Judge made an awkward head-first slide in Wednesday’s win over the Twins. He woke up Thursday morning and said “the whole right side” of his body was “a little locked up.” But he still played against the Rangers, only to exit the game with what the team called … Continued
The pick is in. With the No. 24 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, the Giants chose Maryland cornerback Deonte Banks.
The Jets would certainly do the Aaron Rodgers deal again. But it did nip them a bit in the first round of the 2023 NFL draft. Gang Green selected Iowa State linebacker Will McDonald IV with the No. 15 pick. But their pick swap with the Packers as part of the Rodgers deal — the … Continued
ESPN fired national baseball reporter Marly Rivera after an incident at Yankee Stadium where, according to The Post, she was alleged to have called another reporter a “f—ing c–t” after they both attempted to interview Aaron Judge at the same time. TMZ has since obtained video of the altercation. And it is pretty wild. The … Continued

It is not difficult to get carried away with Knicks possibilities right now. They just routed the Cavaliers in five games to win their first playoff series in a decade. They will be favored in a surprise second-round matchup with the Heat, who just upset the top-seeded Bucks. Win that and they have a puncher’s … Continued
Folks, the Mets have been struggling. Entering Thursday night’s series finale with the Washington Nationals, they’ve lost four in a row for the first time since September 2021. New York will also look to avoid getting swept for the second time this year. One of the biggest culprits for this current skid is an inability … Continued
It’s finally here, folks. The 2023 NFL Draft begins on Thursday night at 8 p.m. ET. The Carolina Panthers will kick it off with the first overall pick to get the proverbial ball rolling. What will the Giants and Jets do, though? How the first round plays out is anyone’s guess at this point. If … Continued
If the name Jake Bauers sounds familiar, it should. He’s a 27-year-old first baseman/outfielder with 328 games for the Guardians, Mariners and Rays from 2018-21. Bauers hit .213 with 27 home runs over that stretch and then had an uneventful 2022 in the Reds and Yankees’ farm systems. But in 2023, the script has been … Continued
Hey, look, the NFL draft kicks off on Thursday night. There has not been much buzz about this year’s edition around town. The Giants are picking the latest — No. 25 — in the first round than they have since 2012. And the Jets have understandably been focused on Aaron Rodgers. But we’re here now, … Continued
Jerry Springer has died. The famed television host was 79. From TMZ: A family spokesperson says Jerry was battling a “brief illness.” Our sources tell us it was pancreatic cancer that was diagnosed a few months ago, and this week he took a turn for the worse. The spokesperson says he died Thursday morning, peacefully … Continued
The stars appeared to be aligning for the Mets. After finishing off an impressive 7-3 road trip in California, they had a breather on Monday before starting a homestand. The Atlanta Braves would be coming to town, but not before the lowly Washington Nationals. When New York and Washington began a three-game set on Tuesday, … Continued
Were you worried about the slow start at the plate by Yankees rookie shortstop Anthony Volpe? If so, you can stop worrying now. And who knows, maybe that can serve as the foundation for an American League Rookie of the Year performance once Game 162 is in the books. Through the first handful of games … Continued
The 2023 Yankees-Twins regular season tilt was unlike any in literal decades. Minnesota took two of three and won the season series for the first time in 20 years, but the standings tell a better story. Both teams are 14-11 on the year but with one key difference. The Twins are first in the AL … Continued
The Post has the Aaron Rodgers deal covered from all angles. Including an astrologer who has some thought-provoking takes on the new Jets quarterback. [Rodgers is] a swashbuckling, good time loving, boundary pushing Sagittarius sun with a shadow dwelling, secrets as fuel Scorpio moon and a self-care at all costs Taurus rising. (…) Considering the … Continued
The Jets played one primetime game in 2022. And scholars will debate whether it even counts as one. There is not much prestige in playing the Jaguars on Thursday night in a monsoon three days before Christmas, you know. But this season? Gang Green will likely play the maximum five primetime game now that Aaron … Continued
For the first time since 2001, the Yankees have lost a head-to-head season series matchup against the Minnesota Twins. But, there’s a silver lining to their three-game stay at Target Field. After dropping the first two games, New York’s offense broke out for 12 runs in the Wednesday afternoon finale. The 14-11 Bombers will take … Continued
A long, hard road later, the New York Knicks rolled past the Cleveland Cavaliers and into the second round of the NBA playoffs. Jalen Brunson’s 23 points led in a 106-95 victory against a hapless Cavs offense that got too desperate too quickly. Dominant rebounding. Stopping every Cavs run before it could ever really get … Continued
Aaron Rodgers does not just intend. He implies as well. The new Jets quarterback danced around questions about his plans for 2024 and beyond at Wednesday’s introductory press conference in Florham Park. And then he finally came out and gave an answer. Sort of. “This isn’t a one and done in my mind,” Rodgers told … Continued
