Great weekend of Mets ball. Marc and James take you from Brandon Nimmo "cursing", to Carlos Carrasco dealing, to the offense going crazy on Sunday. We get a little off topic talking about Marc's weekend at the National Sports Collectors Convention and James' exciting Thursday night that had him too excited about the Tyler Naquin trade. Then we discuss trade rumors and give our takes on Juan Soto, JD Martinez, and Willson Contreras. The show ends with some very normal and relaxed conversation abo...

The Mets swept the Yankees in their two-game series this week and only trailed for what felt like 5 minutes. Eduardo Escobar, Taijuan Walker, Adam Ottavino, and Edwin Diaz took control of game one in front of a LIVELY Citi Field. The stadium was seriously buzzing. Game 2 came with more drama that started with a Pete Alonso bomb, settled in with a Max Scherzer (birthday) gem, and ended with a Starling Marte walk-off hit. Unbelievable. The boys held nothing back and took just a few shots at the Ya...

Tough series against the Padres. Scherzer and Bassitt were awesome but the offense struggled (until Sunday night). The boys broke it all down as usual with stats and stories from the whole series. Then, FINALLY the trade deadline talk everyone has been waiting for. Marc and James break down all the relievers and bats the Mets might be looking at ahead of the deadline from JD Martinez to Joe Mantiply and everyone in between.

The boys are back! Marc and James talk about the HR Derby, red carpet, All-Star Game itself, any changes they'd make to it, and some other random stuff too before previewing the Padres series. Big weekend back at the ballpark and the guys are excited to get back in the swing of things with everyone.

Bittersweet series again this weekend in Chicago. The Mets crushed the Cubs on Thursday and then scratched and clawed their way through the weekend to win another series. Max Scherzer had an unreal moment with Ian Happ, Eduardo Escobar made some clutch plays, Taijuan Walker stayed hot, and David Peterson continues to grow before our eyes. Of course, the other big news from the weekend was Juan Soto being placed on the trade block. The guys shared a few jokes before taking a genuine look at where...

This was a big one. You knew it, we knew it, and the Mets delivered. Max Scherzer set the tone game one with a dominant performance along with Luis Guillorme. Spencer Strider and the Braves bullpen got us back game two despite another stellar outing by David Peterson. Chris Bassitt and Fransisco Lindor held it down in game three to give the Mets a very impressive series win over their bitter rivals. We also sprinkle in some trade chatter, MLB Draft buzz, little breakfast talk, and close with a p...

Interesting series with the Marlins this weekend. The offense got hot and then immediately cold again. JD Davis and the bottom of the order had a big Thursday but newly minted Mets-Killer Bryan De La Cruz had our number on Friday. The boys were both in attendance for Keith Hernandez Day on Saturday and it was incredible weather, ceremony, and eventual dramatic Mets victory. Sunday kinda stunk, whatever, but there's a big Braves series ahead and we spent plenty of time previewing that as well as ...

The Mets take care of business in Cincinnati where they earn another series win. Taijuan Walker received plenty of run support in the game one win as he continues to roll. The Mets dropped a heartbreaker in game two, but Max Scherzer returned from the injured list on Tuesday and dominated with 11 walks and no strikeouts in six scoreless innings. Then we had a CRAZY comeback win on Wednesday (the boys were buzzing). Otherwise, we had some 4th of July and Joey Chestnut talk after another dominant ...

The Mets got back on track with a big series win over the Rangers. Eduardo Escobar powered the offense with a homer in all three games of the series while David Peterson and Carlos Carrasco gave awesome efforts in their starts. Marc and James break down each game with tons of cool stats and stories from the weekend. Then, there's some talk about Jacob deGrom's first rehab start (34:10), Max Scherzer's return (36:33), and Francisco Álvarez's promotion to Triple-A (37:54). The guys wrap up the sho...

Rough series everyone. Carlos Carrasco had another rough start against the Astros…Yordan Álvarez is a menace. Then Justin Verlander barely outlasted Taijuan Walker in one of the best pitching duels of the season. Edwin Díaz was electric again but Drew Smith gave up the big one. Upsetting, but it happens. Then, we move into our Prospect Report and focus on Francisco Álvarez, Ronny Mauricio, and Brett Baty. We end with a very thorough preview of the rarely seen Texas Rangers and break down their o...

Bittersweet is the word here. The Mets slayed Sandy Alcantara on Friday night behind Francisco Lindor's heroics and Buck Showalter’s incredibly thorough knowledge of the rule book. Then Pete Alonso and Chris Bassitt carried us to a win on Saturday, but the possible sweep faded away on Sunday despite David Peterson continuing his hot streak and Brandon Nimmo continuing to play incredible baseball. Good series, but bittersweet. Oh, and Luis Guillorme is a freak and Edwin Díaz threw a baseball 103 ...

This was a rough series for our Mets. First time all year being swept (but two games so not really). Yordan Álvarez and José Altuve made it tough on Trevor Williams. Then Kyle Tucker got to Chasen Shreve, that happens. Wednesday was rough too with Carlos Carrasco allowing 4 runs before recording an out, oof. The Mets did battle in this one and showed the type of grit that has made them so good all year. We tried to pull as many positives out of this as possible. Afterward, we break down Max Sche...

Bonus Episode! The boys talked to David Cone and Todd Zeile a few weeks back. Zeile gave us a great interview talking about what it meant to be a Met during 9/11, his emotions during Mike Piazza’s heroics, playing for Joe Torre, and life after baseball including a bonus Charlie Sheen story. We only had a few minutes with Coney but asked him what it meant to be a Met, how it was joining the team in 1987, and what goes through a pitchers head during a no-hitter or perfect game To learn more about ...

The Mets won ANOTHER series and handled the Marlins over this 4 game set. Friday night was an offensive explosion with Francisco Lindor and Pete Alonso hitting loud HR while Carlos Carrasco continued his fantastic season. Lindor hit another HR on Saturday with his mom in attendance and Taijuan Walker was masterful on the mound. James tells you why this new version of Walker may be the best one we’ve ever seen. Sunday was rough against Sandy Alcantara who’s one of the best pitchers in baseball bu...

We did it again! 2 out of 3 with a classic poop-fest. Bassitt shoved, MV-Pete is alive and well, David Peterson seemingly struggled but James gives some reasons for optimism regarding his development, say a prayer for our guy Tylor Megill, a hectic comeback win, good series let's keep it rolling. We do a few minutes on the Braves and Phillies after the game-recaps and tell Mets fans not to fret and close the show with some big time listener/supporter shout-outs because, guys, this is the last ep...

The Mets finished off their long West Coast swing with another series victory. They held the Angels in check and are heading back home on the right foot. Tylor Megill returned on Friday and James was encouraged by his performance. Brandon Nimmo got on track, Pete Alonso and Starling returned from their injuries to get a few big hits, Jeff McNeil and Luis Guillorme showed off their wide array of defensive skills, and Taijuan Walker hurled a gem on Sunday Night Baseball. However, Edwin Díaz's 8th ...

Tough one this week. The Mets lost their series of the year at the hands of the Padres and it could have been a whole lot worse. Pete Alonso and Starling Marte each left Tuesday's game, but each appear to hopefully be ok. Keep those fingers crossed. Otherwise, Eduardo Escobar hit for the first Mets cycle in more than a decade (shout-out Scott Hairston) on Monday and Carlos Carrasco twirled another gem. That's about it though lol. With a not-so-great-series, we have our deepest prospect report in...

Wow. What a series in LA against the Dodgers. First the Mets were down, and then they came all the way back for a series split that had playoff vibes. Francisco Lindor got his finger caught in a door and then came back to have some nice games. Pete Alonso looked like the MVP front-runner. Starling Marte stayed hot, Jeff McNeil threw his helmet, Max Scherzer was bit by his dog, Jacob deGrom threw a bullpen, Edwin Diaz pitched the 8th inning, David Peterson got yanked mid-batter, David Roberts did...

Great series. The bats came out hot with huge performances from Luis Guillorme, Francisco Lindor, Pete Alonso, Jeff McNeil, Mark Canha, Tomás Nido, and of course Starling Marte who is blazing hot. David Peterson didn't look great and James dives in to why he struggled. Wednesday was hilarious too with Carlos Carrasco's dad in the building and Gary, Keith, and Ron having a grand ol' time. This week also marked the 10 year anniversary of Johan Santana's no-hitter, Marc and James each talk a little...

The New York Mets just completed their first sweep of the season against the Philadelphia Phillies which pushes their NL East Division lead to 10.5 games over Philly! Pete Alonso continues to own the city of Philadelphia and make a case for MVP talks. Francisco Lindor is really good so of course he had another great series. Jeff McNeil soared like an eagle around the bases after hitting a big HR in game 2 and we even saw Nick Plummer hit a game tying HR in the bottom of the 9th for his first MLB...

The Mets had an action-packed series in San Francisco. David Peterson looked really good again which is awesome and we had one of the craziest games in recent baseball memory on Tuesday with our massive comeback and Joc Pederson's heroics. Otherwise, Pete Alonso hit another dinger, Starling Marte stayed hot, Eduardo Escobar may have gotten hot, and wow shocker Francisco Lindor is really good. The pitching depth is not looking great though and that's even scarier with Drew Smith and Edwin Díaz st...

The snow subsided in time for the Mets to get all three games in against the Rockies and win another series. Starling Marte hit a HR in his first game back in an emotionally charged moment. Carlos Carrasco had another very good starts and James points to an interesting adjustment he made. Luis Guillorme was all over the diamond this weekend, Francisco Lindor too. Good team baseball. Afterwards, we do a listener mailbag where we discussed Chris Bassitt, replacements for Max Scherzer, trade option...

Wow, what an eventful week for the Mets. The games went great! We handled the Cardinals with relative ease and took 3 out of 4. Pete Alonso mashed some big home runs, Jeff McNeil stayed hit, Luis Guillorme and Mark Canha were getting on base, Chris Bassitt looked good, we got lots of help from guys like Trevor Williams, Jake Reed, and Adonis Medina, this was an all-hands on deck series and it showed. Francisco Lindor had a good series too, despite what some fans want to believe. However, the big...

The Mets lost their first series of the year which is sad but Max Scherzer pitched well and Francisco Lindor started to heat up. Drew Smith and Chasen Shreve also looked mortal for the first time all season which is sad but Edwin Diaz reminded everyone how good he is. The Mariners are a pesky bunch though with Jesse Winker and Paul Sewald having fun with Mets fans even though some people (Marc) think Sewald took things too far. Carlos Carrasco also got touched up which is scary with the news of ...
