Luis Guillorme hadn’t started a game since July 29 before he was sent down to Triple-A Las Vegas on Monday and replaced on the roster by Jack Reinheimer. “I think at this point, Guillorme had not played as much as we’d like him to play to continue to develop,” manager Mickey Callaway said before the...

Austin Jackson has only been Michael Conforto’s teammate for a little over two weeks, but the 25-year-old has already made a strong impression. “He has an old soul,’’ Jackson said before Conforto homered in the Mets’ 8-5 win over the Yankees on Monday in The Bronx. “He seems a lot older than his age —...

Mickey Callaway penciled Amed Rosario in at the top of the order Monday night for the 20th time this season. Expect to see Rosario at the top of the order more often after the shortstop hit the first leadoff homer of his career in an 8-5 win over the Yankees in The Bronx — and...

Even after beating the Yankees on Monday night, Jacob deGrom has just seven wins and a .500 record, but those numbers shouldn’t prevent the Mets right-hander from being considered for the NL Cy Young award, according to Mickey Callaway.

So much for Tim Tebow coming to the Mets’ rescue this season. Tebow will undergo season-ending surgery to remove the fractured hamate bone in his right hand, assistant general manager John Ricco said Monday at Citi Field. The 30-year-old suffered the injury swinging a bat Thursday while with Double-A Binghamton, seemingly closing in on a call-up...

A staggering Mets team that is heading toward a selloff, with a hobbled Yoenis Cespedes, would seem to the perfect opponent for the Yankees, who find themselves looking up at the Red Sox in the AL East. But on Friday night, the Yankees squandered countless chances and couldn’t come back against the Mets, who were...

The Battle for the City it’s not, since that fight ended for this season a long time ago. But the Subway Series that begins Friday night in The Bronx will still provide plenty of storylines, from the potential return of Yoenis Cespedes to what might be Jacob deGrom’s final start as a Met. The Yankees...
