CITI FIELD (New York) The Mets entered the Subway Series red-hot, on the heels of sweeping the Detroit Tigers at home. Meanwhile, the Yankees slumped into the weekend having lost five of their last six games. It was a scenario that, just a few weeks ago, would have seemed preposterous. The tables had turned, and it created a buzz. During a warm and sun-splashed weekend that finally felt like summer was around the corner, fans with different New York alliances traveled to Flushing and packed out the stadium every day of the three-game series. The atmosphere was charged. The stakes felt high. The drama was waiting to unfold. In the end, it was the Mets, the team with one of the worst records in baseball, that stunned the Yankees, the club thats built to go to the World Series again. The Mets took two out of the three games, winning the first meeting of the season between the longtime crosstown rivals. Here are my takeaways: 1. Worst Gut Punch In A Season Full Of Em Out of all the comebackers that couldve hurt the Mets, this one burned like no other. Mets right-hander Clay Holmes absorbed a 111 mph line drive off the bat of Yankees rookie slugger Spencer Jones in the fourth inningof Fridays series opener. It bounced off Holmes right leg and broke his fibula. He is expected to pitch again this season, but not for a very long time. A best-case scenario includes Holmes returning to the mound sometime around August. After Friday's game, a 4-0 loss to their crosstown rivals, Mets manager Carlos Mendoza looked devastated. Reliever-turned-starter Holmes entered his Subway Series outing representing the Mets most consistent and dominant arm in their rotation. He carried a 1.86 ERA into his ninth start of the year before what he termed "a freak accident" derailed his season. As long as Holmes was churning out ace-level performances every five days, the Mets liked their chances of climbing up the NL East standings. But, without him? This was the toughest gut punch in a season full of them. "Its tough. Clay is a guy who shows up every day. Hes one of the hardest workers Ive seen in my career," Juan Soto said on Friday. "Its really sad what happened to him. Were going to support him in any kind of way that he needs us. But it just sucks." The Mets are without Francisco Lindor (calf strain), Francisco Alvarez (torn meniscus), Jorge Polanco (Achilles), Luis Robert Jr. (lumbar spine disc herniation), and Ronny Maricio (thumb fracture) for the foreseeable future. None of those position players have a definitive timeline to return. And yet, Holmes injury hit the Mets clubhouse the hardest, Mendoza said. On the heels of yet another lifeless loss, it seemed like the final nail in the coffin for their playoff hopes. The best thing about hitting rock bottom? The Mets were left with a blank slate. Even though its brutal, the only place to go was up. The only thing left to do was start over. 2. Mets Bullpen Then Shines In An Inspiring Win After deep devastation came a reason for celebration. The Mets showed up to Citi Field on Saturday with a vengeance, refusing to let Holmes injury sabotage their season even if it thwarted his. The Mets lineup rallied against the Yankees pitching staff and jumped ahead for a two-run lead that the Bronx Bombers were threatening to erase in the seventh inning. The Yankees loaded the bases with nobody out, thanks in part to a dropped ball from Mets rookie right fielder Carson Benge, when Mendoza turned to his eccentric setup man in the bullpen. Entering an impossible situation, Luke Weaver somehow pulled off the unimaginable against his former team. The wiry right-hander punched out his first two batters, then induced a groundout to end the inning with no runs crossing the plate. Weaver got it all done in just 11 pitches, so the Mets asked him for more. He came back out for the eighth, this time against the top of the Yankees order, and again he faced the minimum. Weaver delivered six king-sized outs for the Mets in a difficult spot. So, of course, he smirked as he walked off the mound. In the dugout after, Soto told Weaver hes a unicorn. "You feel like theres a little bit of an injury bug that weve had, and it feels never ending sometimes, especially in the midst of whats going on with us this year," Weaver said on Saturday. "But its games like tonight where every day is an opportunity to hit the refresh button." Closer Devin Williams, another former Yankee, picked up some of Weavers leftover magic when he took the mound in the ninth inning. Trailing by three runs, Yankees left fielder Cody Bellinger battled Williams but eventually whiffed on the sixth pitch of the at-bat. Williams followed up his toughest matchup by retiring his final two batters with ease, securing his sixth save of the season. After some inconsistency in their first few weeks as Mets, Weaver and Williams have bounced back so far this month. Williams has not allowed a run in his last 8.2 innings pitched (nine relief appearances). Hes given up just one hit and two walks in that stretch, while recording four saves. Weaver, too, has not allowed a run in his last 7.1 innings pitched (six relief appearances) with 11 strikeouts in that span. 3. Rodons Outing Was Bad News For Yankees' Fried-less Rotation The Yankees avoided the worst when they learned on Friday that Max Frieds elbow pain was due to a bone bruise. The left-hander won't need surgery, and in a few weeks the team will re-evaluate whether Fried can resume throwing. In the meantime, the rest of the rotation has some very big shoes to fill. After Cam Schlitter, Fried was their best starter on the staff, helping the Yankees stay afloat until ace Gerrit Cole and southpaw Carlos Rodon returned from their respective injuries. Cole is one or two more rehab outings away from returning to the Yankees rotation for the first time since 2024. And now with Fried down for a while, there is more pressure on Rodon to perform like the 2025 version of himself, when he delivered an All-Star season and finished sixth in American League Cy Young award voting. But Rodon didnt even make it through the fourth inning against the Mets on Saturday, which was his second start of the season since completing his rehab from left elbow surgery. He lacked command all night, eventually throwing a wild pitch that allowed the Mets to take the lead. Rodons erratic performance arrived at the worst time. The Yankees need him to settle in and find consistency as the No. 2 starter in the rotation now, particularly because Fried was a workhorse that saved manager Aaron Boone from having to overuse his bullpen. "Im never going to make an excuse," Rodon said on Saturday. "I think I should be dialed in right now. Its frustrating." Given whats left of New Yorks rotation Will Warren, Ryan Weathers, Elmer Rodriguez, Schlittler, and Rodon its fair to question whether this staff will be able to maintain its strong season. Yankees starters possess the second-best ERA in the AL, and it will be an uphill climb to try and keep it that way. 4. Extra-Innings Drama Returns To Subway Series After the Mets rallied for a victory on Saturday, the Subway Series finale on Sunday afternoon became an intense rubber match. The crosstown rivals were tied at 1-1 through five innings until the Bronx Bombers put up a four-run rally on Mets starter-turned-reliever Sean Manaea in the sixth inning. Boone had emptied his entire bench heading into the bottom of the ninth inning. Then he went to his closer, David Bednar, trusting him to deliver a Yankees win. They were one out away from him doing just that when Tyrone Taylor had other plans on his mind. Taylor, the Mets fourth outfielder, executed the swing of his life slugging a game-tying three-run home run off Bednar to resurrect the Mets back from the dead. He tied the game at 6-6, sending it to extra innings, as Citi Field went berserk. Williams took care of the Yankees again in the top of the 10th inning, expertly stranding the ghost runner at third base before Benge walked it off for the Mets in the bottom of the frame. "Bummed out to happy," Taylor said of his emotions at the plate on Sunday. "Hittings contagious." Boone seemed to panic throughout the series finale, over-managing with pinch-hitters early and often until there was no one left to do damage when the Yankees needed it in the 10th. Taylor and the Mets, meanwhile, kept the faith. In the fifth, Taylor came off the bench as a pinch-hitter and ripped a liner that had an expected batting average of .680 to center field, where Spencer Jones made a terrific diving catch to take away an extra base hit. Again, Taylor ran into an unlucky out in the seventh inning on a lineout to left. In the dugout, his Mets teammates encouraged Taylor to keep swinging. When he finally did, he hit the ball so far that no Yankees fielder would get in his way. "I blacked out for him," Benge said of Taylors at-bat on Sunday. "Hopefully we can get our at-bats going. Our arms are shoving. Were trending in the right direction." 4 . Whats Next? The Bronx Bombers ugly road trip has mercifully reached an end. The Yankees went 2-7 against the Brewers, Orioles and Mets their first spell of true adversity in what has otherwise been a terrific start to the year. They go home to host the division-rival Blue Jays on Monday. The four-game series is their first meeting against Toronto since the Blue Jays eliminated the Yankees from the playoffs last October. The Mets will try to keep the good times rolling on a quick road trip that holds the best opportunity yet to change the course of their season. Beginning Monday, they face the Nationals and Marlins, also known as the two teams that are ahead of the Mets in the NL East standings. If they can stack up more wins on the road, the Mets have a chance to jump from last place to third in the division. The Yankees (28-19) and Mets (20-26) will meet again on Sept. 11 in the Bronx.

No one outside Mauricio Pochettinos inner circle knows for sure who he is naming to the U.S. World Cup squad next week. Heck, Pochettino himself might remain undecided on a couple slots ahead of the May 26 announcement in New York.Nevertheless, we all have a very good idea which players will form the foundation of a 26-man roster that will represent the country at this summers soccer festival across North America.Three weeks ago, Yahoo Sports ranked the players irrespective of position by their importance to the team and probability of making the final cut. Today, we break things down with sure bets by position, with the disclaimer that injuries both lingering and 11th-hour could alter the equation.GoalkeepersMatt Freese and Matt Turner have been Pochettinos only starters the past 14 months, and they will remain atop the depth chart heading into the World Cup.Freese who made four saves in New York Citys 1-1 draw with Red Bull New York on Saturday started 12 consecutive matches to end the 2025 schedule before yielding to Turner for the Belgium wreck two months ago. Freese was back in net a few days later against Portugal.Matt Freese appears to be Mauricio Pochettino's No. 1 choice in net.Shaun Clark/ISI Photos via Getty ImagesTurner has performed well for New England, including a six-save effort vs. Minnesota on Saturday, and does bring World Cup experience from 2022 in Qatar. A late bloomer on the national scene, Freese has never played in world competition at any level but will almost certainly arrive at training camp as the frontrunner.Others: Chicagos Chris Brady, who earned his sixth clean sheet in 13 matches Saturday, appears to have the inside track for the No. 3 role despite no senior matches, but Columbus Patrick Schulte has three caps and started at the 2024 Olympics, while Cincinnatis Roman Celentano has remained in the mix.Center BacksAs one of Pochettinos most important players, anchoring an otherwise unsettled backline, Crystal Palaces Chris Richards is a certainty. Amid a congested domestic and international stretch, he came off the bench Sunday for his second sub appearance in five outings. To the horror of USMNT fans, Richards twisted his ankle in a late collision during the 2-2 draw against Brentford. While Richards was seen visibly struggling post-match, manager Oliver Glasner is cautiously optimistic about a potential return by midweek.Palace will close the Premier League season next Sunday at home against first-place Arsenal before facing Spains Rayo Vallecano in the UEFA Conference League final May 27 in Leipzig, Germany. Consequently, Richards will report late to U.S. camp in the Atlanta area.Although 38-year-old Tim Ream has not been at his best, Pochettino values leadership and experience. Whether the Charlotte FC man starts every group match is another matter. Ream didnt play this weekend for load management purposes, but is expected to return next weekend. In his second season in Glasgow, Auston Trusty (24 starts) helped Celtic win its fifth consecutive Scottish league trophy with a must-win, 3-1 comeback victory over Hearts. Next comes the FA Cup final vs. second-flight Dunfermline on Saturday. He has started at least once in each of the past two U.S. camps.Mark McKenzie has started almost every Toulouse match for which he has been available and made the U.S. lineup in two of the past three matches. He was in Toulouses lineup Sunday at Nantes when the match was abandoned because of a pitch invasion.Shocking scenes at La Beaujoire, where ultras, furious at their clubs relegation, stormed the pitch, forcing the match between Nantes and Toulouse to be abandoned. Vahid Halilhodi, 74, stood his ground in the face of hooded men. What an image.pic.twitter.com/gpmqBsRXPH Lo Aschi (@_LeoAschi_) May 17, 2026Others: If Pochettino selects a fifth center back, does he go with Cincinnatis Miles Robinson or perhaps Vancouvers Tristan Blackmon? Noahkai Banks, a dual national who hasnt played much for Augsburg this spring, all but ended his chances by not committing to the U.S. before the March window.Fullbacks/Wing BacksFive slots seem set: World Cup incumbents Antonee Robinson, Sergio Dest and Tim Weah, plus 2025 breakthrough prospects Alex Freeman and Max Arfsten.Robinson has shaken off injury and fitness concerns with three consecutive 90-minute performances at left back for Fulham. On Sunday, he scored his first Premier League goal over five seasons by converting a penalty kick in first-half stoppage time of a 1-1 draw at Wolverhampton.Two weeks after returning from a two-month injury absence, Dest on Sunday went 90 minutes for the first time since March 3 as PSV Eindhoven capped its championship season with a 5-1 blitz of Twente. Usually a right back, Dest has started on the left the last two weeks adding comfort for Pochettino, should Robinson face additional issues.Weah, a 2022 World Cup goal-scorer who returned to Olympique Marseilles lineup Sunday after sitting out a game with an injury, could end up serving multiple roles this summer: right back, midfielder or forward. At OM, he typically plays back.After starting three of Villarreals previous four matches on the right corner, Freeman did not play in the 2-0 loss at Rayo Vallecano. His last opportunity comes next Sunday vs. Atltico Madrid.Arfsten, who is more a wing than a defender for Columbus, provides cover for Pochettino on the left. He has four goals and four assists this MLS season.Others: Is there room for Joe Scally, a versatile full-time starter for Mnchengladbach?Defensive MidfieldersBecause of injuries and lineup decisions, Tyler Adams has started just four times in 2026 for Bournemouth. But he is an integral part of a Premier League club pushing for a Europa League or maybe a Champions League berth next season. And his value to the U.S. is undeniable.Bournemouth was off this weekend ahead of Tuesdays home date with Manchester City and Sundays finale at Nottingham Forest.Who would start alongside Adams? Atltico Madrids Johnny Cardoso and Olympique Lyonnais Tanner Tessmann were top candidates, but Cardoso is out of the picture after undergoing ankle surgery last week and Tessmanns status is unclear after his French club shut him down May 8 because of a muscle strain.That leaves Middlesbroughs Aidan Morris and Seattles Cristian Roldan. Morris was a full-time starter for second-flight side that fell one match short of the promotion playoff final. Pochettino is enamored with Roldans leadership, experience and bite. (He also had a two-goal game for the Sounders recently.)Attacking MidfieldersWere going to stick Christian Pulisic in this category, though he could play as a second forward or wing. The face of the U.S. program has not scored for AC Milan since December, but on Sunday, he returned from a one-game injury absence to set up a goal in the 2-1 victory at Genoa.Weston McKennie is another player who could end up in any of several roles, but theres a good chance he partners with Pulisic behind the striker. With one Juventus match left, he has appeared in 47 matches across all competitions (43 starts).Malik Tillman was in Bayer Leverkusens lineup Saturday, his first start since the March international window. He finished the Bundesliga campaign with six goals in 29 matches (but just 18 starts).Others: Heres where things get interesting, with Brenden Aaronson, Diego Luna, Gio Reyna, Sebastian Berhalter and maybe even Jack McGlynn in contention. Not everyone is going to make the cut and no one is a lock.Aaronson has started 29 Premier League matches for Leeds but barely featured in the last U.S. window. Luna battled a knee injury early in Real Salt Lakes season and, after four goals in seven matches, sat out Saturday with muscle tightness. Reynas last Mnchengladbach start was five months ago.Berhalter is enjoying a terrific season for Vancouver, with six goals and seven assists in 13 matches, including a two-goal performance Wednesday. McGlynn, who, because of injuries, hasnt been in U.S. camp since September, has come on strong for Houston.Two others to consider, though both are wingers, not midfielders, and are competing with the aforementioned for roster spots: Club Amricas Alex Zendejas, who was among Liga MXs best players, and Real Salt Lakes Zavier Gozo, a dazzling 19-year-old with six goals and four assists who has gained a lot of buzz from MLS fans and media but has never even been in a U.S. senior camp.This is why Gozo is the talk of the town right now The kid is on fire pic.twitter.com/1LAZUr7FAu Real Salt Lake (@realsaltlake) May 17, 2026StrikersWe have saved the easiest position for last.Undeniably Pochettinos first-choice striker, Monacos Folarin Balogun finished with 19 goals in 43 appearances across all competitions. His 13 Ligue 1 goals ranked fourth.Ricardo Pepi and Haji Wright also enjoyed terrific campaigns to position themselves for playing time this summer.Pepi converted a late penalty kick Sunday to finish with 19 goals in just 33 matches and 18 starts across all competitions. His 13 league goals were tied for third.Wright notched 18 goals in 43 games across all competitions for Coventry City, which won the English Championship and returned to the Premier League for the first time in 25 years. His 17 league goals were tied for second.
