Mostly Mets

Baby Comeback!

Back from the break, and after losing the first two, the Mets came back and continued to find ways to come through. On this week's episode, we highlight the week that was and the pivotal performances that have the Mets' win streak at 4. Is Alvy's return, along with improved performances from his fellow mates in the bottom half of the lineup enough to turn its production around? With the trade deadline a week away, we'll discuss who the Mets could be bringing into (and possibly shipping out of) town. Then we'll touch on the the latest feat accomplished by Scottie Scheffler in the world of golf. And we'll round out the show previewing the road ahead as the Mets have one last road trip out west where many of us will be asking ourselves, "Should I keep watching or go to bed?" Keep watching of course! Though for now, relax and take a listen to this show.

We Are on a Break!

The Mets wrapped up the first half of their schedule with another split of a road trip in Baltimore and KC. On this week's episode, we discuss the week that was, including the returns of both Kodai Senga and Sean Manaea from injury. Manager Jes gives his mid-year performance reviews and ponders some thoughts on the team's outlook for the second half, too. Then we round out the show with a tribute to our Captain, David Wright, as his #5 is set to be retired while he's simultaneously inducted into the team's Hall of Fame on Saturday. It's a jam-packed episode, so please come spend your All-Star break with us. 

Back in the New York Groove

The Mets respond from their dreadful series in Pittsburgh by coming home and taking back-to-back series from the Brewers and Yankees. On this week's episode, we cover the highlights of the week that was, talk about the lineup change that swung momentum back the Mets' way along with the reinforcements possibly arriving in the coming days. We'll also discuss Mike Brown being hired to take the helm of the basketball team over at MSG. Is he the right guy to lead the Knicks to victory? Then we'll round out the show by previewing the week ahead before next week's All-Star Game puts the regular season (temporarily) to bed. Trips to both Baltimore and Kansas City are on the way, so how will the Mets wrap up their first half of play? I also have a trade idea that would bring a certain pitcher back for another stay. Won't you please stay, too? I sure hope you do!

A Pirate’s Booty Whoopin

The woes on the road continue as after fighting back to get a split of the series at home against the Braves, rather than righting the ship, we’re back to feeling like it's sinking again. On this week's episode, we'll continue our Mets' therapy session as we try to make sense of the nonsensical, historic series sweep defeat by the hooked hand of the Pirates. Can the pitching staff withstand another crucial injury to its rotation? When will the offense outside of Soto wake up again? And will the homestand ahead against the Brew Crew and Bronx Bombers help the team turn things around? Come join us on the couch as we definitely have lots to talk about.

The One with Dicky Lovelady

The past week was anything but fun, but the Mets' season is far from done. On this week's episode, we discuss the wretched road trip that the stops in Atlanta and Philly were, talk about the causes of the recent swoon this back half of June, and how the team can get back in the New York groove. We also wrap up the NBA & NHL's playoffs as both leagues  crowned its champion. Then we round out the show by previewing the week ahead with a rematch against Atlanta in NYC and a trip out to one of baseball's most beautiful parks, PNC. Remain calm everyone. It's gonna be OK. 

Mets Sweep & Get Swept Away

It was a tale of two series indeed as the Mets' 3-3 homestand saw polar opposite outcomes occur. On this week's episode, we talk about the happenings of the past week, including a complete game shutpiece from David Peterson, but also Kodai Senga going down and the state of the Mets' rotation as a result. Is the offense back to not coming through with RISP? And does the team have a roster dilemma on its hands soon? We'll then pay tribute to a tried and true New York Ranger, Chris Kreider, who no longer will be wearing the #20 Blueshirt after last week's trade. Finally, we round things out by previewing the road trip ahead against our NL East rivals, Atlanta and Philly.

A Not So Rocky Road Trip

The Mets come through and go 5-2 on their trip out west and now head home the NL’s best. We highlight the week that was including a home run tear for the Polar Bear that now has him second on the franchise's all-time list. We also discuss the emergence of Jeff McNeil in the Mets lineup as well as the continued success of the starting pitching. We then dive into the news of Tom Thibodeau's firing as head coach of the Knicks and how the organization will move forward. And we wrap up the show with a preview of the homestand ahead against Washington and Tampa Bay. So, come aboard and let's play! 

Home Sweet Homer

The show is back to recap another terrific homestand that saw the Mets notch three series wins. We highlight the happenings of the homestand, then touch base on the performance of the Mets in May before previewing what's up ahead for them in June. We also put a bow on the Knicks season now that their playoff run is through. Then we breakdown the Mets' 4-game set in LA as they have another test from the Dodger blue. 

Not Too RISPy; Soto Saga

Round 1 of the Subway Series certainly provided its storylines. But the one heading into it was the same one coming out of it--Soto. On this week's episode, we'll recap the week that was, including discussing the Juan and only Soto, along with the Mets' challenges hitting with runners in scoring position (RISP). We'll also talk about the impending return of an arm to the Mets pitching staff, as well as Mauricio's hot start back in AAA. And, while we don't want to, we'll also recap the stunning OT defeat the Knicks suffered in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals at MSG. Then we'll preview the homestand up ahead as the vaunted LA Dodgers come into town this Memorial Day weekend in an NLCS rematch for three, before back-to-back series' against the lowly White Sox and Rockies.

Baty & The Mets

The good mojo at Citi Field continues for our team in Flushing as they notch another pair of home series wins. In this week's episode, we cover the highlights of the games against the Cubs and Pirates, including the incredible homestand from Brett Baty, talk about the Mets rotation making history and how one of its members is exceeding expectations. We then go downtown and discuss the Knicks being one win away from their first conference finals appearance in 25 years. And we'll close out the show previewing the road ahead, including this weekend's highly anticipated Subway Series matchup in the Bronx. So, catch me on the 7, 4 or 1 and let's have some fun!
