Podcast appearances and mentions of Brandon Nimmo

Sal and BT dissected the agony of the 2025 Mets season, contrasting their failure to make the playoffs with the Detroit Tigers, who suffered a historic division collapse yet still snuck into October baseball. Sal emphasized that the Mets' high payroll and talent made their absence unacceptable, showing they couldn't even "fold the right way." The discussion segued into how the new regime, led by David Stearns, must drastically change the team's defensive philosophy, even if it means moving on from fan-favorites like Pete Alonso or Brandon Nimmo to prioritize sound, well-rounded baseball.

Sal and BT furiously dissected the New York Mets' most embarrassing season ever, a historic collapse that saw the $400 million team miss the expanded postseason. The discussion was fueled by owner Steve Cohen's immediate public apology to fans and star Pete Alonso's post-game announcement that he will opt out, signaling a potential tear-down of the core, including possible trades for Francisco Lindor and Brandon Nimmo. This baseball disaster overshadowed the Giants' massive win over the Chargers and the exciting debut of rookie QB Jaxson Dart, with the celebratory mood immediately soured by the devastating news of Malik Nabers' season-ending ACL tear.

Sal and BT, frustrated by the Mets' underperformance, declare that the team's core simply "didn't work" and needs a dramatic shakeup. While both agree Pete Alonso must be re-signed as a potent DH/First Baseman, they argue that Francisco Lindor and Brandon Nimmo should be put on the trade block. Sal specifically targets trading Lindor, despite his star power, to ditch the hefty contract and change the team's "entire dynamics," while BT agrees the core players don't complement each other and the whole nucleus needs to be blown up.

Sal and BT furiously dissected the Mets' season-ending collapse, calling it one of the most embarrassing in franchise history after the team missed the playoffs despite a massive payroll. They hammered the team's core, with Sal arguing that the Mets should trade Francisco Lindor or Brandon Nimmo to reset the team dynamic since the current nucleus "did not work." BT agreed that the core needed to be "blown up," even if it means moving a star player like Lindor. The discussion culminated in the hilarious payoff of Sal's bet with Phillies fan Clem from Surfside, forcing Sal to don a Chase Utley Phillies uniform and BT to wear a Surfside can costume in a moment of ultimate Mets-Yankees-Phillies indignity.

It was a bitter end to the Mets season and after the game Brandon Nimmo met with the media to discuss where his mind is after the loss.

Hour 1 We started with a great night of baseball for the locals, with the Yankees clinching a playoff spot and the Mets coming back to beat the Cubs. It felt like a special night for the Mets. And where is Keith Hernandez? Is he sick? Jaxson Dart is starting for the Giants this weekend at home against the Chargers. Even though Russell Wilson had a great game against Dallas, he threw terrible interceptions last week. Jerry is here for his first update of the day and starts with the sounds of the Yankees beating the White Sox and clinching a playoff spot. We heard the sounds of Howie Rose as the Mets came back to beat the Cubs as Brandon Nimmo had a 3-run game tying HR. Francisco Alvarez homered in the eighth which ended up being the game winner. Al actually had a new song about Jaxson Dart. Mike ‘I'm a man, I'm 40' Gundy was fired by Oklahoma State. In the final segment of the hour, WFAN producer Brian Rascona told Gio that Ken Griffey Jr was walking around the Ryder Cup and nobody seemed to notice him. Hour 2 Jaxson Dart is getting the start for the Giants this week. Nobody really talks about the pressure a quarterback faces in their first real NFL game. Boomer brings it up, but you don't hear many other people talk about it. It's different from the pre-season. Boomer likes Dart's attitude compared to some of the other rookie QBs that came to the Jets and Giants. Jerry returns for an update, but first Gio wonders if the teams being bused back and forth for the Ryder Cup are listening to the show. Jerry starts with Ian Poulter criticizing American golf fans. Brandon Nimmo hit a game tying 3-run homer as the Mets beat the Cubs. Francisco Alvarez ended up hitting what ended up being the game winning HR. The Yankees beat the White Sox and clinched a playoff spot. The Guardians have overtaken the Tigers and former WFAN Adam ‘The Bull' was so excited he made a weird noise. In the final segment of the hour, a caller wonders if Daniel Jones will get a big contract in Indianapolis (he will hang up and listen). Hour 3 We started the hour with the Jets as they play in Miami on Monday night. One of these teams is going to be 0-4. There is pressure on Mike McDaniel and Tua. In 2 of the 3 games, the Jets were very competitive. A caller wonders why the Giants even brought Russell Wilson in if they had already signed Jameis Winston. Jerry returns for an update and starts with Howie Rose and the sounds of the Mets beating the Cubs to get back in charge of their own destiny. Brandon Nimmo hit a game tying HR and Francisco Alvarez hit the eventual game winning HR. Jerry compares ‘douche bag says what' from the 1990s to ‘Boomer will cream pie me' from this morning. In the final segment of the hour, we talked about Gary Cohen's comments last night about a Cubs player missing a game to attend Charlie Kirk's memorial service. We continued arguing about the phrase, ‘control your own destiny'. Hour 4 Nicole Rae from Skratch Golf is in the studio to talk about the Ryder Cup. They hosted us for our trip to Pebble Beach as well. Jerry returns for his final update of the day, but first Gio gives us alcohol prices for drinks at the Ryder Cup. Jerry starts with the sounds of the Yankees beating the White Sox as Caballero had a walk off single. We heard Howie Rose on the call as Francisco Alvarez homered making it 9-7 Mets. Micah Parsons was asked how it will feel when he sacks Dak this weekend. The Moment of The Day: Al has a new song, reminding Gio of marriage. In the final segment of the show, WFAN producer Brian Rascona checks in from the Ryder Cup.

Last night, the New York Mets erased a five-run deficit and stunned the Cubs 9–7 in Chicago — with Brandon Nimmo's three-run homer and Francisco Alvarez's game-winning two-run blast in the the 8th. Edwin Díaz locked it down with a two-inning save. Meanwhile, the Reds lost, the D-backs rallied past the Dodgers, and the NL Wild Card race tightened even more.

The Mets handled business on a Thursday afternoon at Citi Field, beating the Padres 6–1 behind a sharp rebound from rookie Jonah Tong and home runs from Pete Alonso and Brandon Nimmo. Tong struck out eight over five innings and allowed just one run as New York clinched the series and widened its cushion for the NL's final Wild Card spot. Alonso homered in the first (his fourth straight game with a HR) and later added a sac fly, while Nimmo broke it open with a three-run shot in the third. With the win, the Mets are 79–74—two games up in the Wild Card race—with nine games remaining. #Mets #LGM #MetsWin #MetsNation #NYM #MetsBaseball #PeteAlonso #BrandonNimmo #JonahTong #CitiField #MetsVsPadres #MetsHighlights #MLB #MLBPlayoffs #MLBWildcard #Baseball #MLB2025 #LetsGoMets #QueensBaseball #NewYorkSports #LockedUpSports

Sal and BT's "Call of the Day" centered on a quote from Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo, where he claimed other teams were "hoping we don't make the playoffs" because they don't want to see the Mets in October. The hosts took Nimmo to task for what they saw as a delusional and dangerous mindset, arguing that it shows the team is not taking their current struggles seriously. Sal and BT said the quote revealed a "fatalistic" attitude where the team believes they can just "turn it on" when the playoffs arrive, a belief that is not supported by their recent poor play. They argued that this lack of urgency is the very reason the Mets are in danger of missing the playoffs in the first place.

Brandon Nimmo chats with Pat McCarthy ahead of the Mets-Phillies game on Wednesday night. Nimmo talks about the race for the playoffs and the recent cold stretch for the Mets offense.

Juan Soto's 6 RBI's were key in the Mets 10-8 win over the Tigers. Pat McCarthy is with Brandon Nimmo after the game to chat about Soto's success and more.

Position players pitching, big offensive starts, and a win for Jonah Tong! Pat McCarthy spoke with Brandon Nimmo after the game to recap it all.

Hour 1 Jerry and Willie Colon fill in for Boomer and Gio, discussing the start of college football season, which Willie and Eddie love, unlike NFL-fan Jerry. They feel old watching sons of players they grew up with. The Mets beat the Phillies, with controversy around Juan Soto's timeout and appreciation for Francisco Lindor. Willie hopes parabolic mics and this series turn the Mets around. The Yankees and Giancarlo Stanton continue their success against the Nationals. C-Lo's update covers Brandon Nimmo's walk-off, Edwin Diaz's save, and Jonah Tong's upcoming MLB debut, which Jerry believes will spark the team. Jerry and Willie agree Stanton is a Hall-of-Famer and enjoys playing outfield. The Yankees gained a game as the Blue Jays blew a lead. The Giants waived Tommy DeVito, and the Jets cut Malachi Corley. Finally, Jerry asks Willie about Burning Man, leading to a discussion of his sandstorm experience in Arizona, whether he could perform in an "orgydome" at his age, and which former teammates and show crew members he'd take. Hour 2 The hour begins with the engagement announcement of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. Willie discusses prenups, having one himself, while others on the show do not. Eddie sees prenups as a sign of mistrust. Jerry wonders if the engagement will help Kelce focus on the upcoming season. A caller provides a female perspective on prenups. C-Lo, who also lacks a prenup, provides an update. Jerry and Willie note that cheating isn't exclusive to men. In sports, the Mets beat the Phillies, Giancarlo Stanton led another Yankee win, and Shedeur Sanders made the Browns' initial 53-man roster. The hour concludes with Jerry telling Willie about Shaun Morash's bet that Travis Kelce will incorporate Taylor Swift's last name into his. If so, Evan will take his wife's name as payment. Jerry and Willie agree with Evan's stance but wouldn't have risked the same wager. Willie emphasizes athletes' need to protect earnings, especially in the NFL. Hour 3 The hour began with a discussion on Micah Parsons' hold-in and alleged back injury, with Willie and Jerry expecting a deal, though Willie notes the difficulty of returning to play immediately. NFL cutdown day saw the Jets release Malachi Corley, prompting Willie to suggest they need another receiver. Willie also explained how small-school players are scouted, calling the combine overrated. C-Lo returned with an update after a segment on the Jerry Jones Netflix documentary, which C-Lo and Jerry are enjoying. The conversation then shifted to concussion protocols then versus now. The Mets beat the Phillies after Ryan Helsley blew a save and are going for a sweep tonight. The Yankees won against the Nationals with Luis Gil pitching five strong innings, saved by Tim Hill. The Yankees and Mets will play on 9/11 next year, with the season starting unusually early on March 25th. C-Lo presented musical clips, including Evan and Shaun singing "Tong" and Gary, Keith, and Ron singing "Take Me Out to the Ballgame," leading to a discussion on karaoke songs. The hour concluded with Jerry sharing a coincidence related to a small college and then discussing excitement for college football. Finally, Jerry recounted a story about a man in Wisconsin who faked his death to leave his family and meet a woman, now facing jail time. Hour 4 The final hour begins with Jets radio voice Bob Wischusen, following Willie's story about Mike Tomlin using “In the Air Tonight” to motivate his team. Bob discusses the Jets' potential for a good season, expressing optimism about their chances of playing meaningful games in December. C-Lo returns for his final update, where Willie learns about "Al" after CBS Sports Network aired Jerry's "fraud" clip. Ryan Helsley blew the Mets' lead, but they won in the 9th. Giancarlo Stanton drove in all five Yankees runs in their win, leading Jerry to call him a first-ballot Hall-of-Famer. C-Lo wonders what Travis Kelce had left to say proposing to Taylor Swift, while Jer ...

Jerry and Willie Colon hosted for Boomer and Gio, discussing the start of college football season, with Willie excited and Jerry preferring NFL. They felt old watching sons of former players.

Tonight's hero spoke with the media about his walk-off single, the performances of the hitters ahead of him to put him in that spot, and the recent offensive explosion for the club.

Ahead of the series opener in Atlanta, Carlos Mendoza spoke with Keith Raad and addressed the importance of the upcoming games, what Nolan McLean needs to do tonight in his second career start, McLean's impressive curveball, and he provided injury updates on Brandon Nimmo and Jeff McNeil.

Boomer and Gio are concerned about Kodai Senga's performance and suggest David Peterson as the Mets' potential playoff ace. Jerry's update includes Yankees' victory over Rays, Mets' loss to Nationals (Senga gave up 4 earned runs), and Brandon Nimmo's neck injury. Also, a bizarre story about a bullet in Andy Reid's office and a tennis player on OnlyFans requiring a $1,000 pre-date deposit.

It's Season 8, Episode 16 of The Put it in the Books Show—Farace, Rodriguez, and Producer Joe (holding it down behind the wall) are on deck, while Keith is out under the weather (or maybe just sparing himself from watching more blown leads).The Mets managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory again, coughing up a 3-run lead and losing to the lowly Nationals. This isn't just a bad loss, it's the kind of game that makes you wonder if the stretch run is going to be a stretch too far. Five games back of the Phillies and clinging to wild card position, every one of these collapses feels like a gut punch.Injury news doesn't help either: Alvarez remains out, joined by Jeff McNeil, Brandon Nimmo, and Luis Torrens on the sidelines. On the flip side, Francisco Lindor just won NL Player of the Week, proving he can carry the lineup when he's locked in. Baty has been on fire, Vientos is showing signs, and the offense overall has looked better… except when they're blowing games against the Nationals.The bullpen additions are still a mixed bag, but somehow, when the hitting coach stopped coaching hitting, the bats got going. Go figure. Now it's time to see if the Mets can pick themselves up—three in Atlanta followed by a massive four-game clash with the Phillies at Citi Field.So pour a stiff drink and join Farace, Rodriguez, and Producer Joe as they try to sort through the standings, the injuries, the blown leads, and maybe even corner Joe into apologizing to Brett Baty.

Brandon Nimmo was forced to exit Wednesday's game against the Nationals early with a stiff neck and after the game the Mets Outfielder met with the media to give an update on the pain along with what his recovery expectations for it are.

The Mets comeback bid came up short to snap their 3 game losing streak and following the game Carlos Mendoza met with the media to give an update on Brandon Nimmo who exited the game early before breaking down the team's 5-4 loss to the Nationals.

Today marks the second consecutive joint practice for the Jets and Giants, following an uneventful session yesterday. Keith expresses optimism for both local teams, highlighting the real hype for Abdul Carter and anticipating improved QB play for the Giants.
