Mets'd Up

Packed episode everyone. We won the Rockies series and talk about all the ins and outs there for like 30 minutes. The lineup, Christian Scott's struggles, José Butto and Dedniel Núñez saving our lives, Pete hopefully getting hot, and more. Then, some dense draft talk about the Mets first two picks Carson Benge and Jonathan Santucci. Also Media Marvels because some people thought Anthony Volpe was better than Francisco Lindor lol. Lots of fun.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

SWEEEEEEP. The Mets have a playoff spot for the first time all season after sweeping the Nationals and played a great series. Nimmo is officially all grown up and he went off this week. Lindor too, they’ve been cash atop the lineup. The starters also all pitched really well while the bullpen was still not great. We did make a trade though for Phil Maton and give our predictions for the Mets Trade Deadline.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

So close to a great Mets weekend. Still good but we got high key embarrassed on Friday then won two great games before the strange decision to pull Christian Scott on Monday. We go deep into that call by Mendoza and all the turmoil right now in the Mets bullpen. Also, Brandon Nimmo and Francisco Lindor were snubbed from the All-Star Game and we are way too mad about it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hi guys. It's Fourth of July and the Mets split the series against the Nationals. It was pretty frustrating but also kind of not, idk why. Mark Vientos is a freak. The Nationals are also like pretty fun and have built this team pretty well. Whatever, this was a wild series and this is a wild episode. Happy Fourth friends!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Almost, almost. Vibes were insanely high for the Mets on Friday after another dramatic win and then Jose Iglesias performing his hit song "OMG" live on the field. It was a literal fever dream. Then, the bullpen kind of fell apart on Saturday and Sunday against the Astros. We argue about Tylor Megill, break down Luis Severino, give Brandon Nimmo a lot of credit for being sick, and talk about the rest of the games. Then, argue a bit about the Trade Deadline before a very, very thorough Prospect Report with notes on Luisangel Acuna, Brandon Sproat, Jonah Tong, Ryan Clifford and many more. Close the show with a preview of the Nationals series.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

SWEEP. SWEEEEEEEEEP. THE METS ARE FINALLY BACK TO .500 AFTER HAMMERING THE YANKEES IN THE SUBWAY SERIES. FRANCISCO ÁLVAREZ IS UNREAL. MARK VIENTOS IS A DUDE. LINDOR AND NIMMO HAVE TO BE ALL-STARS. LETS KEEP ROLLING!!! ALSO, EMERGENCY MEDIA MARVELS BECAUSE MICHAEL KAY IS VERY SENSITIVE. LETS GO METS.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

300 episodes is crazy. Thank you guys so much for listening and being here with us after every series. The Edwin Díaz suspension sucks and is a very big deal. Sunday was just chaos in total. We smoked Shota Imanaga. Francisco Lindor, Brandon Nimmo, and JD Martinez are scalding hot. Francisco Álvarez is also just a freak with how good he is. Severino looked great. Good series overall. Then Media Marvels, Subway Series Preview, a thank you for 300 episodes, and a show announcement.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This team is rolling baby. Monday we crushed the Rangers, Tuesday was probably the best win of the season with big contributions from Brandon Nimmo, Mark Vientos, Francisco Álvarez, Pete Alonso, Edwin Díaz and so many more. It's really happening and we're feeling it. Also, sadly, Willie Mays passed away this week and we talk about how amazing he was for a little while. Lastly, Cubs preview and Prospect Report with Marquee Analyst Lance Brozdowski. Lance is the man, we've wanted to have him on for a while and spent like 25 minutes nerding out together about baseball it was so much fun.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Fun, actual fun. Mets sweep the Padres fueled half by grimace and half by JD Martinez. Does this change the Mets trade deadline plans? We try to figure it out. Francisco Lindor is also sick, who guessed it. The lineup seems fun too and Tylor Megill still looks good but not great. Also, Media Marvels and a preview of the Rangers series.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Almost sad but JD Martinez saved the day/episode/season (not really) and hit a walk-off home run Thursday. We talk about that, Tylor Megill being actually good, Brandon Nimmo, Francisco Lindor, David Peterson, Dedniel Nunez the gawd, Edwin Diaz and more. Then a little teaser to some trade deadline content and an interesting comment by Steve Cohen on the team's approach before a big prospect report. We give updates on Luisangel Acuna, Brandon Sproat, Christian Scott, Brett Baty, Jonah Tong, Ryan Clifford and two big sleepers in the Mets system Fun one woo.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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 preview of the Nationals series.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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 .See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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 hated Mets personality, Luis Arraez takes, and Marc's twitter fight with Eric Hosmer (rat).See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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 systemSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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 trade deadline. Lastly, a preview of the Cubs series and reading your reviews. Shoutout you guys for lots of new reviews and some great support recently. Best listeners in the world seriously, I've met every other listener and if you're reading this you literally are the best.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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 a new Mets pitching prospect to watch. Then, a preview of the Cardinals series this weekend (we hate them so much).See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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 MetsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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 system from Blade Tidwell to Kevin Parada to Jesus Baez to Wilson Lopez to Luisangel Acuna. Lastly, a preview of this weekend's series against the Dodgers.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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 Ziegler, Brandon Sproat, Jonah Tong & Nolan Maclean in our propsect report! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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 AAASee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

METS BASEBALL IS BACK BABY.

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!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
