The Mets season in numbers
- Record
- 74-88
- Division
- 5 of 5
- Run diff.
- -32
- Expected wins
- 78
- Home
- 36-45
- Road
- 38-43
Across 162 games the Mets scored 699 times and allowed 731 runs, a run differential of -32. That works out to 4.31 runs scored and 4.51 allowed per game, against a league average of 4.48 for each side. Based on those runs, a typical team would have won about 78 games, so the Mets finished 4 wins below that mark. That is close enough to say the Mets record reflects how well they actually played.
At home the Mets went 36-45, on the road 38-43. Unusually, the Mets won more games away from home than at Citi Field. Against left-handed starters they were 21-28, against right-handers 53-60, and they closed the regular season 5-5 over the last ten games, losing the final game.
Recent form: the last 10 games
In their last 10 regular-season games the Mets went 5-5, scoring 4.9 and allowing 3.8 runs per game. 7 of those 10 games finished above 9 total runs, 1 was decided by a single run, and the widest margin was 10-3 at home against PHI. The chart plots each of those Mets games, runs scored above the line and runs allowed below it.

The NRFI Lab puts the Mets next to every other team and starter on the same split.
How to read the Mets numbers
Reading these Mets numbers before a game: the run differential and expected wins say more about team quality than the raw record, the home and road split shows how much Citi Field helps, and the last-ten totals show whether recent Mets games have run high or low. For Mets totals, the over/under guide explains the market step by step, and the odds calculator turns any price into an implied probability. None of these Mets figures predicts a single game, and no bet is ever a sure thing.
Citi Field, home of the Mets

The New York Mets play their home games at Citi Field in Flushing, NY, at an elevation of 10 feet. Games there averaged 8.67 total runs, an index of 0.97 against the league average, close to neutral. At Citi Field, wind direction and temperature change how far the ball carries, so the game-day forecast matters. The ballpark scoring page ranks all 30 parks.
Mets injured list
3 players are on the Mets injured list: Jorge Polanco (DH, IL 60-Day), Reed Garrett (P, IL 60-Day), Tylor Megill (P, IL 60-Day). The list comes from the Mets 40-man roster and refreshes every morning.
