The Case for Joe Girardi

Talkin" Mets ·

2019/10/13

Show Notes The postseason is another example of why tanking is bad. Beware of lazy reporting on the Mets managerial search. Historically the Mets haven’t synced up the right manager during the right time. The media is already focused on the wrong things. Example is Beltran’s decade-old feud. Joe Girardi is the right guy at the right time. His Yankees tenor wasn’t easy and he has a track record of succeeding in adverse situation. The Mets can’t afford to be wrong in this decision.Advertising

The Seth Lugo Conundrum

2019/09/09

Show Notes September Baseball isn’t the problem, bullpens are the problem. Mickey Callaway was right for putting Edwin Diaz back in a big spot.

Rustin Dodd of The Athletic Talks about the “season of Pete Alonso” and the “Brooklyn Cyclones experience.” Jeff Lax of 77 WABC criticizes Brodie Van Wagenen’s performance.Advertising Inquiries:

Mets Take A Step Back on Players Weekend

2019/08/26

Show Notes Too much anger over the Mets waiving Adeiny Hechavarria and not signing Billy Hamilton.

Amed Rosario Leads the Way

2019/08/19

Show Notes The 3-3 road trip was acceptable, but there is a lot to clean up. Update on Mets Math with 19 of 25 at home. The big story isn't Alonso - we all knew he would come around - it's the emergence of Amed Rosario. Since July 1st he's a top-10 offensive SS in baseball. Top three in runs created. Rosario's defense has improved and if his performance is sustainable you have five core offensive players for next season. The bullpen situation requires Callaway to just go with

Show Notes The Mets fans were the 10th man this weekend and did an outstanding job. The doubleheader sweep invigorated the fans and brought them to another level. There is a unique connection with this team and the fans and city. Can we point to the homegrown and local connection as an advantage in the pennant race? The Mets offense is underrated. JD Davis gives them 4 in-prime offensive players in the top 15 in the NL. The Edwin Diaz conundrum is one that isn’t easy to solve. It appears
