His 143 career holds are the most in Giants history while his 392 appearances are the 12th-most in franchise history since the team relocated to San Francisco in 1958.

In parts of four seasons, all with New York, the right-hander has appeared in 74 career Major League games (15 starts) and has gone 11-9 with a 3.45 ERA (64 ER/167.0 IP). He was originally signed by the Mets as a non-drafted free agent on June 2, 2017. 

 

Tidwell, 24, has appeared in four Major League games (two starts) this season and has allowed 15 earned runs across 15.0 innings. The 6-4, 207-pounder made his Major League debut on May 4, 2025 at St. Louis in the first game of a doubleheader. Across 73 career Minor League outings (66 starts), Tidwell has pitched to a 4.13 ERA (150 ER/326.2 IP) with 166 walks and 372 strikeouts. This season, he has gone 6-4 with a 4.10 ERA (36 ER/79.0 IP) in 17 games (14 starts) with Triple-A Syracuse. He was originally drafted by the Mets in the second round of the 2022 First-Year Player Draft out of the University of Tennessee.

NEW YORK METS TO HOST BATTLE OF THE BADGES ON AUGUST 17

 

NEW YORK METS TO HOST BATTLE OF THE BADGES ON

AUGUST 17

The NYPD vs. FDNY annual charity baseball game presented by Your Local Ford Stores will take place at Citi Field

 

Video: Click here for video

 

FLUSHING, N.Y., July 25, 2025 – The New York Mets will host Battle of the Badges, presented by Your Local Ford Stores, at Citi Field on Sunday, August 17 at 4:10 p.m.The NYPD vs. FDNY annual charity baseball game will feature teams consisting of former high school, college and minor league baseball players who now protect and serve the local community as members of New York’s Finest and New York’s Bravest.

 

Mets Hall of Famer, former Captain and seven-time All-Star David Wright will be returning as the host of the game and will honor a NYPD and FDNY hero prior to the game.

 

“The Battle of the Badges game is one my favorite days of the year. Growing up in a Police Household, I quickly learned that the true heroes in the community are the police officers and firefighters that put their lives on the line to keep us safe,” said Wright. “While most of us would run away from trouble, First Responders run towards it. The Battle of the Badges game is a great reminder to thank First Responders for their bravery, service and commitment to their communities. I hope to see you there.”

 

Tickets are $20 with a portion of the ticket sales benefiting local FDNY and NYPD charities.

 

“The Mets are delighted to help give back to local charities by hosting the Battle of the Badges for the fourth straight year,” said Mets Senior Director of Community, Inclusion and Player Relations Donovan Mitchell. “It’s been an honor to support those who protect and serve with such a memorable event.”

 

Last year FDNY defeated NYPD, 5-1 to give New York’s Bravest their second straight win and a 14-12 advantage over New York’s Finest in the historic battle.

Collect Major teams up with MLB

 


If you are of a certain age, you remember the LJN WWF Figures that came out on the 1980s. You had Hulk Hogan, Rowdy Roddy Piper, Mr. Fuji, and of course the Macho Man Randy Savage. A few years back the fellas over at CollectMajor.com created figured paying homage to that style. They created Big Rubber Guys! This toy line has helped fill in the missing pieces of who never got a figure from that timeline and even added to it with some wrestling stars from today like Danhausen and All Ego Ethan Page. Of course the Founders of the line have had figures themselves put into the line, at first as proof of concept. They are even partnered with All Elite Wrestling with some great figures announced today for preorder from AEW at ShopAEW.com.

Why am I talking about all this when this is primarily a baseball fan advocacy blog? Major Collect has a licensing deal with MLB to make Big Rubber Guys! And guess who is leading it off?


Mr Met! Also is his arch rival The Phillie Phanatic. And not to mention the Cincinnati Reds Mach Man Randy Savage who was drafted by the Reds to play baseball. More details coming soon.






Great job here by under Mets Fan Brian Myers, The Indie God Matt Cardona, and Mike Kanik.

Mr Met WWE Night “Yeet” Bobblehead

 


This was a fun ticket package giveaway. I wanted to start off talking about how organized and how good the redemption team was with this promotion. Chris Brown I’m giving a big shout out to you and your team for this. I’ll talk about this in the next few paragraphs.

To get this special WWE Night BOBBLEHEAD, you had to buy a ticket package that included Mr “Yeet” Met. This wasn’t given out to the first 15000 fans but to those who purchased the tickets for the special sections. When you got your digital ticket it told you that you had to use the QR Code to redeem it over near section 129 by the Group Redemption area. I expected to see a long line and just a few folks working the kiosk. NOPE! That’s not what I saw Mets Executive Chris Brown,who I have known for years looking at the tickets to make sure no one who didn’t purchase a WWE night package  mistakenly got a BOBBLEHEAD and also directing traffic to multiple tables, yes I said multiple tables. There was no real line up at the time when I went and it I watched for a few mins to see how every thing just flowed so well. Again Chris and team, great job there.

Oh yeah, the bobble head and the skits that Tiffany Stratton and Nia Jax were in were pretty fun too!

Citi Field showing its age.

 
Pic From Metspolice.com


One of the big things I keep saying about Steve Cohen wanting to build a casino in the parking lot besides the fact A) its parkland and B) there is a school and affordable housing being built across 126th street is what is going to happen when it is time to build a new baseball stadium to replace Citi Field. Citi Field is starting to show its age and the hermit Shannon Shark has noticed it also.

 Like the LF retired numbers.  It just looks sloppy that a bunch of them are faded.

Walking in, I noticed the bricks.  Remember when everyone paid a few hundred bucks to honor their loved ones and line the WIlpons pockets?  Those are all pretty beat up and faded.  It’s the sort of a thing a billionaire (whose been known to write pretty big checks for things) could just be cool about to restore, but he isn’t going to do that, is he?

Maybe not worry about LED Ribbons to make money on Ads and work on the stadiums infrastructure?
