The boys had boots on the ground for the London Series to see the Mets split a 2 game series with the Phillies. Jose Alvarado is still a rat and blows a save in excellent fashion. Shoutout to all the fans we met in London, the pints were crackin, the games were mental and the vibes were brilliant. Mets had back to New York for a 3 game series with the Marlins and we are absolutely battered from the London Series. Great time abroad, should we keep James there?

Are the Mets hot?? The Mets might be hot. We went down to Washington and swept the Nationals behind some solid pitching and awesome hitting fueled by Francisco Lindor, Mark Vientos, and newcomers Luis Torrens and Jose Iglesias. New blood it good! We break it down in a bit of a chaos episode as the boys both have boots on the ground in the UK ahead of the London Series bruvv innit.

Things are better? They are kind of better and they were almost good. Almost though, so close to being good. Mark Vientos is the every day third baseman now, Christian Scott is in the minor leagues (pain), Francisco Lindor had a huge game, Brandon Nimmo doesn't know how to hit third, real Reed Garrett please stand up. We also talked about the Darryl Strawberry number retirement ceremony and debate which Mets deserve to get their numbers retired in the future. Then some Media Marvels and a previe...

This team is legit unbelievable. Not only did they get swept by the Dodgers, blow another lead, not score for 20 innings, and Pete Alonso might’ve gotten hurt. Jorge Lopez threw his glove into the crowd and then might’ve said the Mets are the worst team in the league and that he’s the worst teammate in the league. It never ends it actually never ends. Also breaking down Tylor Megill, checking in on Reed Garrett, explaining what’s happening with the casino in Flushing, and a Prospect Report....

Somehow this keeps spiraling. The Mets have totally mishandled the Edwin Díaz situation. We're inventing new ways to lose games. Francisco Lindor stared at a two strike pitch. Brett Baty and Mark Vientos are pushing each other to be better. Great starts from Christian Scott, Luis Severino, and Sean Manaea. Media Marvels making fun of ourselves, a stolen Mets meme, Buster Olney, Anthony DiComo, and a crazy story about iced coffee in Citi Field. The team is not fun but we still are.

So bad. Swept. Haven’t won a series in weeks. Tylor Megill looked good though. Mark Vientos also keeps crushing the ball. We talked about them both a good bit in between all the not so good stuff. Also, a beefy prospect report reviewing all the latest promotions and taking a look at some struggling minor leaguers.
May 23, 2024•1 hr 2 min•Ep. 295
Pain, pain everywhere. Something is wrong. We don't know what is but we try to talk through. This Edwin stuff is the worst. Even Christian Scott got hit. This stinks. Also, Media Marvels and we take some shots at Ron Washington, Paul Skenes haters, and ourselves. Close it out with a Guardians preview woooo can't wait to do this all again.
May 20, 2024•49 min•Ep. 294
Crazy week. It felt like a year. Edwin blew two saves. Francisco Lindor didn't get a hit. Christian Scott hasn't even pitched yet. Thankfully we won a game but this was a bad series and we talk about it. Oh also Steve Cohen accidentally tweeted about trading everyone at the deadline and then deleted it. Crazy. Crazy!

Almost a disaster series against the Braves totally saved by Brandon Nimmo’s walk-off home run. He’s incredible. Full Christian Scott breakdown from James who had boots on the ground at Citi to see his new favorite pitcher live. Plus, José Quintana has been awful, JD Martinez is heating up, Starling Marte two-hole concerns, figuring out why and how Pete Alonso’s alleged contract offer was leaked, and a preview of the Phillies series.

Rain Wednesday but its still a sweep for the Mets. Brandon Nimmo is awesome, Pete Alonso broke out, and Sean Manaea and José Buttó breakdowns. Feels great to beat the Cardinals in front of those amazing fans, best in baseball truly. Then a prospect report checking in on the FCL Mets and some other sleeper prospects in the organization. We close it out with a preview of the Braves series with Foolish Baseball .

Really bad series by our Mets overshadowed a completely electric debut by Christian Scott. We get to Scott, and James waxes poetic, but we have to go over the bad stuff first. Pete Alonso is ice cold, the stolen bases against us are getting ridiculous, and Edwin Diaz still isn't quite Edwin Diaz yet. All not good, we take the temperature of each and see how scared we really should be. Then, full Christian Scott breakdown because he was filthy. Close the show with this week's Media Marvels with a...

Cubs series was crazy. Severino almost threw a no hitter, MLB doesn’t know what blocking the plate means, DJ Stewart is still great, our bullpen is best in the league, and Francisco Lindor is him. Also, Christian Scott is getting called up so we get excited about that and give our weekly prospect report with some sleepers in the Mets system
May 03, 2024•1 hr•Ep. 289
Shoutout Mark Vientos, avoided the sweep and made a huge case to stay in the lineup. We review the whole series including José Buttó's worst start in almost a year but James isn't worried, Adrian Houser's issues, Pete Alonso's 200th HR, five minutes of Knicks talk (sorry, we're excited and hate Philly), and Mets might have the best bullpen in baseball (actually). Then we run through our listener mailbag with lots of questions about Baty vs. Vientos, Christian Scott's ETA, and a look ahead to the...

Why do the Mets always play the weirdest series in San Francisco? Just bizarre games, thankfully we saved the week with a big win Wednesday but we talked about how cool/weird it is to see Wilmer Flores and Michael Conforto, Luis Severino still looking good, Reed Garrett saved my life, and encouraging signs from Jeff McNeil and Francisco Lindor. Then our weekly prospect report. Christian Scott is super him, Nolan McLean had his best appearance as a pro, more Jonah Tong and Alex Ramirez hype, and ...

Great series in LA for the Mets as they take 2 of 3 games from the Dodgers. Francisco Lindor is swinging the bat much better, DJ Stewart hit some big Home Runs, Starling Marte is looking great and Reed Garrett is NASTY. Andy Martino tried to take down the legendary rally pimp Max, we remind you of some of his worst takes. Then we head to San Francisco to take on the Giants! LFGM Lets go Mets

Get the brooms out baby. Mets complete their first sweep in over a year and we're super pumped. Trying not to get ahead of ourselves, but this team might be g**d. James is getting addicted to come from behind wins and is ridiculously hype about the Mets bullpen starting with Reed Garrett but also some huge adjustments from Adam Ottavino and Drew Smith. Marc talks about the vibes in the park and again guys, we are jacked up. After, we do our weekly prospect report going through the entire Mets sy...

Fun Mets weekend! Luis Severino and Brett Baty led the charge on Friday while the few people in Citi Field gave Francisco Lindor an ovation. Sean Manaea had his first rough start and James tries to figure out why he struggled from the Moroccans desert. Sunday was all about Doc Gooden until it was all about José Buttó. That’s our guy. Plus new segment Media Marvels and Pirates preview.

What a series in Atlanta for the Mets. Honestly we are both shocked how well this turned out, had low expectations but the Mets shocked everyone including the Braves taking 2 out of 3 in the series. Brandon Nimmo went off, DJ Stewart owns the poverty Braves, Brett Baty continues to be great and the Mets pitching stepped up again in a big way. Mets fans should be pumped, great series back home against the Royals this weekend. We also dive deep into Mets pitching prospects Christian Scott, Calvin ...

Mets end up squeaking out a series win in Cincinnati against the Reds despite some questionable managerial decisions by Carlos Mendoza. Brett Baty is really starting to look like a great ballplayer, Francisco Lindor might be heating up, and the Mets pitching continues to look really good. These games were ugly, they were stressful but thats what we can expect from the 2024 Mets. Great series win, onto Atlanta to face the Braves!
Apr 08, 2024•52 min•Ep. 282
Oh boy, this almost got real bad. It was still pretty bad. We talked about the Mets blowing the first two games of this series despite some great play from Brett Baty, Francisco Álvarez, Sean Manaea, and Adrian Houser including a few questionable decisions by Carlos Mendoza. Luckily, on the backs of José Butto, Reed Garrett, and Pete Alonso we finally got a win. Fun times. Also, a preview of the Reds series and analysis of Christian Scott's first start in AAA

Miserable weekend. Downright awful. We are not happy and talk about everything from the team's poor play to the Rhys Hoskins debacle to Luis Severino's start, and much more. Such an awful way to start the season.

METS BASEBALL IS BACK BABY. We talk everything from final roster cuts, most important players, story lines to watch, bold predictions, our favorite Mets futures bets, a really stupid draft between us, some Mets Twitter drama, and our general plans for the season. Long, stupid, fun, LFGM.

Mets have signed JD Martinez to a 1 year deal worth roughly $5m with money deferred for years after. This move is awesome for the team and we are pumped to give you our reactions to the news!

Christian Scott was so impressive we had to do an episode about it. Huge breakdown of his outing, his stuff, and when we think he'll debut with the Mets. Then some roster housekeeping like Tylor Megill being officially named SP5 and roster cut stuff. Lastly, is David Stearns a Mets fan? One Reddit user isn't so sure.

We’re buzzing over the Mets prospects from the breakout game, especially pitchers Brandon Sproat and Nolan McLean. Steve Cohen talked to the media and had some really funny sound bites while also saying nothing at all. We answer your questions about the batting order, prospects, and more!

Edwin Díaz is back JD Martinez might be in play, JD Davis might come home, Brandon Nimmo needs to hit leadoff, Pete Alonso shouldn’t hit clean-up, and prospects to watch on Friday during the Spring Breakout Game

Lots of fun Spring Training stories to get to. Francisco Álvarez has been playing possessed and is already getting star treatment (03:39:24-07:38:22) There's talk of taking Brandon Nimmo out of the lead-off spot and we don't like it (07:38:22-12:54:17) All of our starters had great weeks including Luis Severino who likes super nice (12:54:17-25:57:21) The bullpen is pretty exciting but there will be some tough decisions to make before Opening Day (25:57:21-34:36:10) Mark Vientos, Pete Alonso, an...

Pete Alonso is one of the best power hitters in baseball but rumors are swirling like crazy about his future with the Mets. We break down what he's worth, what kind of contract he will probably get, and how good we expect him to be this season (hint, very good).
Mar 07, 2024•26 min•Ep. 273
Trying something new this year and going to preview as many players on the team we can before the season! Starting with Francisco Lindor. We give him a lot of credit for being really good and talk about whether or not he's on track for the Hall of Fame.

Whole bunch of Spring Training stuff today. Luis Severino was throwing gas, Sean Manaea didn't look good but then cut his hair, and then a whole bunch of excitement from Christian Scott and Blade Tidwell. Then, looking into Starling Marte's return and where we want him to hit in the lineup this season. It's Spring baby baseball is almost back!
