Send us a textCal Raleigh aka 'The Big Dumper' hit his 26th home run this week to lead #MLB. If #Mets Tylor Megill was traded to Seattle they'd become a battery meaning the "Big Drip" would pitch to the "Big Dumper". Can we see that happen please? #Braves have lost 8 of 10 and are making the task of reaching the postseason increasingly difficult. Phillies have lost 9 of 10 and now lost Bryce Harper to another injury. #Cubs are still looking good.  #Padres Manny Machado got his 2,500th hit this week and he's played more games than any player since 2015. Is he a HOFer. We think so. #Dbacks are a disappointment as are the #RedSox and #Orioles.   How about #Royals? Shouldn't they be better? #Tigers have been great and #Guardians will hang around w #Twins. Mets season so far has featured pitchers over-performing expectations and hitters like Soto and Nimmo underperforming. Can it last? We have our doubts. The bullpen has also been excellent led by Edwin Diaz who looks like prime "Sugar" and arms that find ways to get outs. Manager Carlos Mendoza has already become one of the best in the game.  Can Pete Alonso keep it up? Francisco Lindor continues to play at a Hall of Fame level every day. What will the team do with Brett Baty, Mark Vientos, Luisangel Acuna and Ronny Mauricio? They all cannot get playing time. And Jeff McNeil is starting to produce wherever he plays. Intro & Outro music this season courtesy of Mercury Maid!

The Yankees won in Cleveland and Paul Goldschmidt had himself a 3-hit day and Judge had a triple. Game 3 has the Knicks in Detroit tonight and Thibs was asked about Karl-Anthony Towns' lack of performance in the fourth quarter. The Islanders have fired their radio broadcast team and it looks like they won't have one next season.

Mets trainers found Edwin Diaz has one leg longer than the other. They said they fixed it, which doesn't make any sense at all. In the final segment of the hour, we took a call from a doctor on someone having one leg longer than the other.

Hour 4 Tonight's NFL Draft: Sanders' surprising drop worries Boomer, who initially saw him as a Giants pick but now he's falling, possibly due to unwanted attention. Boomer also ponders Cousins and Rodgers. Phil Simms labeled Jaxson Dart "pudgy," adding to his draft concerns. Jerry's final update includes Milroe, Dart, and Carter discussing their Giants' interactions. Mets secure their 7th straight win (Soto's outfield assist). Yankees avoid a sweep (Judge's triple). Doug Gottlieb appeared on the Dan Patrick Show. Today's Moment: Imagining John Mara asking Simms to unretire #11. Gio's music pick: Chappell Roan's country tune.

The Mets closer speaks with the media and provides an injury update after departing today's game with hip cramps.

Mets pitching has been outstanding so far as well. Jesse Winker talked about how the stadium being full is a huge advantage for the Mets. Boomer doesn't think they'll need Grimace this year.

Gio said they can't have him at any more games. Jerry returns for an update and starts with the sounds of the Knicks losing game 2 at the Garden. Coach Thibs did not like the huge discrepancy between foul shots between the two teams. Charles Barkley had a message for Mavs GM Nico Harrison: stop with the press conferences. The Yankees lost in Cleveland as the Guardians hit back to back homers off of Clarke Schmidt. The Mets beat the Phillies but Edwin Diaz made it interesting. Carlos Mendoza talked about Diaz's performance after the HR. Russell Wilson met the media and said some generic things. Jalen Milroe was asked about potentially joining the QB room with Wilson and Jameis Winston. Vikings RB Aaron Jones talked about being an older QB and also talked about trying to get older women since he was a kid. Boomer and C-Lo did a Rangers podcast yesterday. In the final segment of the hour, a young guy named Jared is here. He works in the digital department here at Audacy and he's been tasked with getting the YouTube numbers up for Al & Jerry's Postgame Podcast.

Hour 1 The Knicks suffered a disappointing Game 2 loss to the Pistons, which Gio describes as "off and weird". Boomer believes OG Anunoby was frustrated by a lack of late-game touches. Gio criticized Thibs for blaming officials and called a potential series loss "pathetic." Jerry's update began with the sounds of the Knicks' defeat at MSG, where Thibs cited rebounding as the key difference. Meanwhile, the Mets beat the Phillies with Francisco Lindor hitting two more home runs, and Jesse Winker also homered, noting the home crowd's impact. The Yankees lost to Cleveland after Clarke Schmidt allowed consecutive home runs. Russell Wilson's press conference focused on himself, while Jets GM Darren Mougey avoided discussing Aaron Rodgers. The hour concluded with a discussion on how the Pistons' strategic play forced the Knicks to adapt. Hour 2 Gio feels Karl-Anthony Towns doesn't embody the superstar mentality, lacking visible disappointment or fire. Boomer countered that Towns simply had an off night and couldn't find his rhythm. Before Jerry's update, Gio expressed disbelief at people falling for fake Adam Schefter reports on X. Jerry's update featured Mike Breen's call of the Knicks' Game 2 loss, with Thibs discussing the need to win differently. They then played a clip of the Clippers' play-by-play announcer, whom they found unauthentic, and mentioned Shaq abruptly leaving the set due to olive oil consumption. Mavericks GM Nico Harrison stated he underestimated Luka's importance to fans. Jazz Chisholm homered in their loss to Cleveland, while the Mets defeated the Phillies, with Jesse Winker and Lindor hitting home runs, improving their home record to 10-1. Jalen Milroe discussed his relationship with Malik Nabers on Kay Adams' show. Gio expressed enthusiasm for the Giants potentially drafting Jalen Milroe with their second pick, citing Todd McShay's assessment of him as the best running quarterback prospect ever evaluated. Hour 3 The Mets are thriving at home, drawing large crowds and benefiting from outstanding pitching. Jesse Winker highlighted the home-field advantage. Boomer joked they won't need Grimace this year. Gio jokingly blamed Fat Joe's presence at the Knicks game for their loss, citing a "Fat Joe curse."

Hour 4 Boomer is anticipating the NFL draft on Thursday and the subsequent Friday show covering both the draft and Knicks/Pistons Game 3, following the Knicks' Game 2 loss which tied the series 1-1, a series Gio feels has been competitive and physical, though the Knicks are slightly underperforming. Jerry's final update led with audio of the Knicks' loss. "Inside The NBA" apologized for falsely reporting someone's death. Thibs was frustrated by perceived officiating disparities favoring the Pistons. The Mets defeated the Phillies with Francisco Lindor hitting two more home runs, while Clarke Schmidt allowed consecutive home runs in the Yankees' loss.

Between the struggles of the rotation and closer Edwin Diaz, the Mets have issues within their pitching staff.

Hour 1 Today's show features Gio & Jerry as Boomer is out. They discussed Luka Doncic's 45-point return to Dallas, calling his trade and Denver's coach/GM firing unusual NBA moves. Relating this to the Knicks and Thibs, Jerry believes they can compete with Boston in a 6 or 7 game playoff series, while Gio predicts a second-round loss to Boston in the same timeframe. C-Lo's update included the Yankees' win (despite a shaky finish), Cody Bellinger's five-year chicken wing ban due to food poisoning, Gio and Jerry's fake scalped ticket stories, the Mets' shutout loss, and the White Sox's latest defeat involving Mike Tauchman. Later, Doncic received a standing ovation in Dallas. The hour concluded with Pat Boyle seeking a Masters golfer to bet on and Gio watching a tornado documentary on Netflix. Hour 2 Gio isn't overly concerned about Devin Williams' early struggles, recalling Edwin Diaz's initial adjustment in New York. He criticized Brett Baty's throwing error and questioned Jeff McNeil's continued presence on the Mets. Regarding the Masters, Gio prefers top 20 bets. A caller shared details about Masters ticket prices and pickup. Jerry joked about shooting a 150 at Augusta. C-Lo's update included the Yankees' win. The show discussed Chris Russo's disbelief over Cody Bellinger's hotel chicken wing order and Keith McPherson's unfamiliarity with "scuttlebutt."

The final segment covered the Rangers missing the playoffs, which annoyed Al last year, and the current Giants draft talk also bothers him, with a question raised about the lack of Jets quarterback draft discussion. Hour 3 Justin Fields addressed media questions about the Jets potentially drafting a quarterback, stating he doesn't answer rhetorical questions but is open to teaching. Jerry believes Fields still needs instruction himself. The Steelers lack a quarterback, and Aaron Rodgers didn't appear at Pat McAfee's Pittsburgh show. The upcoming Kickoff to Summer show was mentioned. C-Lo's update covered Masters practice rounds. Allen Lazard is staying with the Jets on a reduced contract. DeShaun Watson claimed doubters will be proven wrong, but Gio called him a "slimeball loser." The show also pondered OnlyFans' profitability despite free content. The hour concluded with a discussion about Al Leiter's field in Bayville, NJ, where Jerry's son recently played, noting Al's funding of the field. Hour 4 Thibs' job might be in jeopardy if the Knicks underperform in the playoffs, especially with Michael Malone available. The Rangers will have a new coach next season, highlighting the NHL's trend of rehiring coaches. The show questioned why good coaches are repeatedly fired instead of addressing player issues. A caller described an agent interacting with OnlyFans customers. Another asked Gio about breathing magnets, which didn't help him; he plans to try mouth "hostage tape." C-Lo's final update included Adam Schein's anger at optimism following the Knicks' loss to the Celtics, Jason Day's correction of a reporter's phrase, and the disappointment of Sam Rosen missing playoff games in his final season. The Moment of the Day was a humorous suggestion of an OnlyFans featuring Fred Couples. The show concluded with a discussion about golf spectators getting hit by stray balls.

In this episode of Three Inning Fan – The Podcast with Kelley Franco, it's a spring training wrap up for the New York teams and then a tour around MLB. First we take a look at the Yankees' rotation and who the wild cards are who have to come up big. Then we discuss Austin Wells hitting leadoff – the pros and cons, and how it's worked in spring training so far. We talk about the Mets and how their infield looks with McNeil out for a few weeks and the young guns who will be stepping in. We examine the superpower of Lindor, Alonso and Soto that no one talks about. How about Edwin Diaz – can he ever repeat 2022 given his low spring velocity? And then we talk about how the Mets can plan to depose the Dodgers this October. We also get outside the New York Bubble – and look at the Dodgers in Japan and how it reflects MLB's global growth, the Rays stadium debacle, and Ron Washington going even more old school on the Angels' players. And of course, we take a look at what's good to eat while you are watching your very last spring training games – and a delicious secret weapon for Lent (for the Catholic contingent!).*Music by Podington Bear
