Steve Cohen Saves New York Baseball & Brooklyn Nets Basketball - WGB S4 E5

After months of the lowly Nets trying and failing to get Kyrie on the court, Uncle Stevie swoops in with a phone call and the wave of a $1.5 million wand and next thing you know the vaccine mandate has been lifted! That's right, when the 2022 season kicks off it will be with the Mets at full strength! This is just the latest in a long and growing line of Steve Cohen power moves. The man doesn't miss and he's all about that business. The Mets were wheeling and dealing both on and off the field th...

The US Gov't Says The Yankees are Cheaters : WGB S4E4

Dom Smith is trending upwards and the whole pod is ready to invest in some DomCoin. News of a torn labrum and bum wrist last year have us hoping that he can return to the Dom of old and provide a big bat when we need it most. Starling Marte on the other hand, is the flip side of the coin. The man is made of muscle and those muscles are giving out on him quicker than an atrophied Jed Lowrie. The guys weigh in on the significance of his injury and recount the PTSD of signings past. We talk about t...

The Bronx is Broke : WGB S4E3

We've been living in a dream world this entire off-season, but the truth is this is our new reality. The New York Mets are the bully on the block and no one can step to Uncle Stevie, not even the Evil Empire cross-town. Could you IMAGINE George ever saying the Yankees can't compete with the METS? That's where we are at. Ain't no fun when the rabbit's got the gun and the broke boys in the Bronx are running scared. The guys check in on spring training and our newest ace, we talk Dom bombs and prai...

Pete Alonso Involved in "Brutal" Car Crash : WGB S4 E2

The polar bear is an impenetrable and unbreakable superhero. That’s the only conclusion we can draw after the larger-than-life HR champion flipped his truck and walked right into spring training like it was nothing. This is an origin story for an epic run if we’ve ever seen one. You think we’d be having this same conversation under the Wilpon era? FAT CHANCE. The baseball gods have long laughed at the Mets and now the winds of change are blowing. The guys react to the outrageous news, welcome Ch...

WGB S4E1: The Cohen Tax

Baseball is back and so is We Gotta Believe! It feels like forever since we've had anything to brag about, but having an owner that's SO RICH that the league adds a new tier to the luxury tax sure seems like a great place to start. The guys beak down "The Cohen Tax," the new CBA and what we can expect for the remainder of free agency. We've got a pair of pocket aces in deGrom and Scherzer and it's got Clem thinking 96 wins all over again. It was hard enough to manage expectations when we had one...

WGB #130: Ready For Some Buck Ball!

The Buck Showalter era is here and the boys are buzzing! This is as close to a perfect hire as you're gonna get for a franchise that needs to turn things around and re-establish a winning culture in the clubhouse. Not only does Buck have the baseball pedigree and temperament for New York, but he's got one hell of a baseball name to go along with it. Bucking right we're excited! The guys give their initial thoughts on the hiring, highlight his biggest statements from the introductory press confer...

WGB #129: MAD MAX IS NEW YORK MET

To all of the Uncle Stevie haters, of which there were WAY TOO MANY, crawl back into your holes because you're never seeing the light of day again after this. The richest owner in baseball did what we knew he would do and spent more money over the course of 5 days than anyone could have even imagined! Maxwell Scherzer is a New York Metropolitan, Eppler obliterated the AAV record and Mad Max will be earning a yearly income that eclipses full franchises! That's what Steve Cohen does! He listens to...

WGB #128: Cousin Billy's Black Friday Blowout!

Clem and Kyle fire up an emergency pod to talk about Billy Eppler's explosive Black Friday signings. Eduardo Escobar, Mark Canha and Starling Marte mark the team's turnaround and the tip of the iceberg for much bigger spending. The guys break down each player, how they'll fit into the scheme and clubhouse and which players should still be on Billy Boy's radar. This was the sign we've all been waiting for. The proof that Steve Cohen can flash the cash and the players will line up. Now that we've ...

WGB #127: Orange and Blue Balls

Turns out Thor is more two-faced than Loki as Noah Syndergaard double crossed the Amazin's and skipped town for California. The one time "ace-in-waiting" never fully lived up to anyone's lofty expectations, but we were hopeful for a comeback with the qualifying offer. There were no guarantees that he would take it, but based on his comments and social media posts we thought it was a foregone conclusion. Turns out he wanted to let us down one last time on his way out the door, thus closing the bo...

WGB #126: From Black Edge to Black Balled?

We tried waiting for positive news as long as we could, but with the recent news of Raquel Ferreira declining an interview for the Mets vacant GM position, the guys had to jump on the pod to discuss what has been going on with this ball club. It makes ZERO SENSE that the Mets haven't even been able to set up an interview for their president of baseball ops or GM positions and we're breaking out the tin foil hats and saying somethings a foot. We knew that the owners weren't thrilled about voting ...

WGB #125: Rojas Is No Mas

It's Black Monday for the Mets and Luis Rojas was the first out the door. We're sure that more heads will roll before the off-season is over, but Luis' name was definitely at the top of everyone's list. The guys jump on to discuss his stressful tenure, we weigh the option of actually keeping him around in another roll and we take a look at the far too early list of candidates that could fill the role. We also list the names on the chopping block and trade bait and look to the free agent market t...

WGB #124: Ding Dong, The Season's Dead

Clem and Kyle pick up the shattered pieces of a bygone season and try to make sense of what happened. We've had plenty of time to let it all sink in, but any time you're setting records for the longest time spent in first place for a losing team you know you've been through the ringer. We also break down Sandy's comments regarding Javy Baez and Luis Rojas, weigh in on Stroman, Syndergaard and Conforto's upcoming free agency and preview our picks on who should stay and go for 2022. The season is ...

Huge episode today for the boys! We kick it off with a little weekend recap and some front office rumors, but we gotta believe we’re just spinning our wheels here with 12 games left to play. THE BIG NEWS is we finally got the Polar Bear, Pete Alonso, in studio to answering Mets’ fans burning questions. We talked about the struggles of this year’s squad, his HR derby performances, what it’s like to be a superstar in New York, dealing with fans on social media, thumbs down-gate and more! Pete was ...

WGB #122: Sad State Of The Season

Let's been honest here, we all knew this was coming. After August we tricked ourselves into thinking there was a chance to turn it back around but we lost too much ground too quickly and couldn't regain our footing in time. The Cardinals' sweep of the Mets this week essentially marks the end of any postseason campaign and has forced Mets fans to look back on what could have been and ahead to what could be. KFC and Clem discuss the Post report about Cohen's Twitter, Sandy's confidant and Rojas' '...

Very rarely does a match-up live up to the hype, but this weekend's Subway Series had EVERYTHING. The drama, the pageantry, the emotion and the raw aggression that you could only dream of between these two teams. The guys break down each game in the series, we talk about the incredible job that they did with the September 11th ceremonies and we are officially ready to declare our love to the Boos Brothers: Javy and Frankie In a year of ups and downs, this series was the embodiment of a full leng...

The guys are joined in studio by Nick Davis, the director of the highly anticipated new 30-For-30 ESPN documentary, 'Once Upon a Time in Queens.' They talk all things 1986 Mets and get a behind-the-scenes look at what it took to get this thing made. It's not often that we as Mets fans can get excited about something happening in September, but this doc is going to be must-watch. Nick gives us his insight on what it was like growing up with that team, how they ingrained themselves into the DNA of...
