The New York Mets got blown out by the Baltimore Orioles on Tuesday, as Michael Wacha was rocked in another start.

Celebrating the Legacy of "The Franchise" Tom S...
Wednesday September 2nd, 2020 will forever be known as one of the saddest days in the history of the New York Mets, as the greatest player to ever wear the uniform passed away. Tom Seaver was nicknamed "The Franchise" because he quite literally put the Mets on the map. The rabid fan base we see today would not be here if not for Seaver. Today we look back at the legacy of No. 41, and also the eerie fact that the current Mets beat the Orioles on the day he passed away, nearly 51 years removed from when Seaver brought the Mets their first championship against the Orioles in 1969.

Mets Give Orioles Batting Practice at Camden Yards
Ariel Jurado and Franklyn Kilome served up some nice BP to the Baltimore Orioles on Tuesday, as they crushed them to the tune of 14 hits and nine runs. Can the Mets afford to be giving games away with such a limited amount of time left in the season? Jeff McNeil may finally be turning the corner, was the 10-game slump he endured simply a product of crashing into the wall to make that incredible catch? Also Robinson Cano would be leading the league in batting if he was a qualified hitter, what will it take for him to win a batting title? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The New York Mets almost stood pat at the deadline, only to make a flurry of moves at the 11th hour. When the dust settled, Todd Frazier was brought back to play with the Mets again and was joined by catcher and Rangers teammate Robinson Chirinos. Unfortunately the big news was that another top pitching prospect has been sent to greener pastures, as Brodie Van Wagenen dealt last year's minor league pitcher of the year Kevin Smith to Baltimore. In exchange the Orioles traded veteran reliever Miguel Castro to the Mets. Rock Auto Amazing selection. Reliably low prices. All the parts your car will ever need.

Mets and Marlins Make a Bold Statement
The New York Mets and Miami Marlins were supposed to play a game at 7:10 on Thursday night. Instead they took the field and stood together for a 42-second moment of silence out of respect for Jackie Robinson. They then exited the field with only a Black Lives Matter t-shirt draped across home plate left behind. Michael Conforto and Dominic Smith were just some of the Mets who spoke about this after the game. Listen to here what they had to say. Also GM Brodie Van Wagenen became a story as well, as he questioned the leadership of MLB Commisioner Rob Manfred in a leaked video.
