4/18/25 Unwanted ex-Mets pitcher has an axe to grind this season: 'It's personal'. Phil Maton didn't make many headlines during his four months in a New York Mets uniform last season. “Every team we play — it is what it is, it's personal,” Maton told The New York Post. Maton revealed to the Post that he heard from the Mets one time in the offseason, when president of baseball operations David Stearns told him he would not pick up his $7.75 million option.

4/09/25 Cardinals 'Lineup Is Scary' Says Rising Star After Overwhelming Pirates' Paul Skenes. The St. Louis Cardinals didn't make any moves to bolster their lineup over the offseason but have emerged as one of the league's top offenses to begin 2025. If it weren't for the Cardinals' underperforming pitching staff, which only received one upgrade in veteran right-handed pitcher Phil Maton this past winter, St. Louis would easily be sitting at the top of the National League Central. Instead, the first-place Chicago Cubs hold a 2 1/2 game lead over the 5-6 record 11-time World Series champions. Tuesday night's 5-3 victory over the division-foe Pittsburgh Pirates was a testament to how dominant this year's Cardinals lineup could be -- handing phenom ace Paul Skenes his first loss of the season.

4/07/25 Cardinals Offense Among MLB's Best While Pitching Staff Falls Far Behind Curve. The St. Louis Cardinals have played well in 2025 despite many expecting the rebuilding franchise to endure another down year after the front office failed to act over the offseason. Cardinals president of baseball operations John Mozeliak signed one free agent over the winter -- right-handed pitcher Phil Maton -- but neglected to help the club reset by trading several remaining veterans, such as flamethrower Ryan Helsley and superstar third baseman Nolan Arenado. Despite Mozeliak's lack of action over the offseason, the Cardinals' lineup has performed well this year and is among some of the league's top offenses. If St. Louis' pitching staff can turn things around, the 11-time World Series champions could be competitive.

3/27/25 Cardinals vs. Twins radio station: Channel, live streams, time to listen live to MLB Opening Day game broadcast. The Cardinals and the Twins are set to square off on MLB Opening Day this Thursday at Busch Stadium. The Cardinals wrapped up the 2024 season with an 83-79 record, securing second place in the NL Central but finishing 10 games behind the division-winning Milwaukee Brewers. As they head into the 2025 campaign, the Cardinals find themselves in a bit of a gray area. This season appears to be more of a transitional phase rather than a full-fledged push for contention. Despite signaling a desire for a "reset" after last season, the front office made minimal roster changes, opting to hold onto their veteran core while making just one significant addition—reliever Phil Maton.

Boston reportedly has checked in with journeyman reliever Phil Maton, according to Chris Cotillo of MassLive.

Tampa Bay traded him to New York this past season, where he posted a 2.51 ERA with 30 strikeouts across 28 2/3 innings pitched. The Mets made a run to the National League Championship

10/15/24 Mets veteran confesses to 'stressful' time late against Dodgers. Mets reliever Phil Maton wasn't shy about revealing how he felt in the last few innings in Game 2 of the NL Championship Series against the Dodgers. “Stressful,” Maton said with a chuckle. In the Mets' 7-3 win at Dodger Stadium on Monday, every reliever entered the game with runners on base. In Maton's case, he entered the game in relief of starter Sean Manaea, who exited the game with the bases loaded and no outs in the sixth inning.

7/29/24 Mets fill holes with trades for Jesse Winker, relievers, but still have room to improve before deadline. An impending free agent, Winker says the fourth-place Washington Nationals were upfront about their intentions before they shipped him to the Mets on Sunday, two days before Tuesday's MLB trade deadline. “The last week or so, it's hard not to pay attention to it because, essentially, your life's changing, and there are things that come with that,” Winker told the Daily News on Monday at Citi Field. Winker, a 2021 All-Star outfielder in the midst of another solid season, marked the biggest acquisition of the summer thus far by the surging Mets, who emerged as buyers after turning their season around. Earlier this month, the Mets traded for right-handed relievers Phil Maton and Ryne Stanek to help bolster a bullpen beset by injuries.
