Podcasts about New York Mets

After losing back to back series to Brewers and Astros, the Mets have put themselves to a pace of losing 90 games in 2026. Not what David Stearns drew up in the offseason, is it now! P.S.

Rick Stroud and Steve Versnick break down the newly finalized Buccaneers practice squad, headlined by two familiar-feeling additions. Veteran quarterback Easton Stick — turning 31 on September 15 — joins as Jalon Daniels' new mentor and emergency QB3, reuniting him with offensive coordinator Zach Robinson, who worked him out as a pre-draft coach back when Stick was piling up a 49-3 record and four national championships at North Dakota State. Rick explains why the Bucs wanted a steady veteran voice in the quarterback room over another developmental arm, and why Stick — who's barely played in six NFL seasons behind Justin Herbert and later with Robinson in Atlanta — won out over re-signing Connor Bazelak. They also welcome back cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting, a key piece of the 2020 Super Bowl run (three postseason interceptions, including a momentum-swinging one in Green Bay), who brings much-needed experience to a young, thin secondary. Rick runs down the rest of the practice squad additions before previewing the two-week runway to the opener at Cincinnati, teasing — but not yet revealing — an area he thinks the Bucs could unexpectedly struggle.Then it's over to the Rays, whose wild week came back to earth with a 3-2 loss to the Mets Monday night, stranding the tying and go-ahead runs late. Rick and Steve also revisit the controversial catch-that-wasn't-quite-a-catch from the Padres series over the weekend, still unable to find a rule that explains how a ball secured in the glove for two steps became a home run when it popped out at the wall. Tampa Bay's lead over the Yankees is down to four games with 25 left to play, and they set up tonight's rematch with Freddy Peralta getting a shot at revenge against the Mets team that drafted and developed him. Plus, Aaron Donald's stunning $20 million comeback with the Rams, and an early look at the Lightning's revamped roster ahead of training camp. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Joe Burrow becomes the ultimate Jets quarterback fantasy as Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber debate whether New York should abandon the draft gamble and go all-in on a proven franchise star if Cincinnati ever makes him available. The Aaron Rodgers pursuit is defended as the right idea despite the disastrous result, while the Jets' endless search for a long-term quarterback remains the franchise's biggest problem. The conversation also turns to Darren Mougey passing on Jaxson Dart and Tyler Shough, whether the Jets should have traded up in the second round, and why drafting a young quarterback immediately starts the clock on a new regime. Plus, the Mets' painful Pete Crow-Armstrong trade resurfaces as another brutal New York what-if.

Mets fans loudly booing Jose Altuve sparks a heated debate over the Astros cheating scandal and whether the outrage still makes sense. Evan Roberts questions the hypocrisy of crushing Altuve while remaining open to Carlos Beltran managing the Mets, arguing that Houston was far from the only team pushing the limits during that era. The conversation also celebrates a fan who pulled off the rare Yankees-Mets-Yankees tripleheader across New York, debates Mets Rookie of the Year candidates Carson Benge and Nolan McLean, and turns to Josh Hart calling for Red Sox broadcaster Will Fleming to be fired after his Jazz Chisholm rant.

Evan and Tiki analyze the hypocrisy of Mets fans booing Jose Altuve while simultaneously embracing Carlos Beltran. They also discuss the bizarre story of pitcher Tarek Skubal allegedly taking a team espresso machine with him after being traded and react to the Orioles claiming Luis Robert Jr. off waivers. 01:50 - Mets Fans Boo Altuve 05:31 - Evan's Astros Prank Confession 11:45 - Pulling Off The Tripleheader 15:11 - Mets Rookie Award Debates 18:40 - Josh Hart Slams Announcer 25:08 - Mets Pitcher Robert Stock 28:02 - Skubal's Stolen Coffee Maker 36:01 - Luis Robert Jr. Claimed 41:41 - Fantasy Baseball Misery

C-Lo joins with an update and discusses the controversial non-catch call in Sunday's Yankees-Red Sox game. Plus, other baseball items.

Bobby and Alex discuss Chris Sale turning back the clock and what the podcaster equivalent would be, before assessing MLB's current labor strategy of proposing as many anti-player policies as policy in the hopes that one will stick. Then, they're joined by Great Friend of the Show Jen Ramos Eisen to do a deep dive into the state of the Women's Pro Baseball League, with a particular focus on the financial management (or lack thereof) of the league thus far.Links:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join the Tipping Pitches Patreon ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tipping Pitches merchandise ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Call the Tipping Pitches voicemail: 785-422-5881Tipping Pitches features original music from Steve Sladkowski of PUP.

Hour 4: A week 2 opportunity for the Jets and offseason ideas for the Mets. Getting friend zoned and the Yankees must take advantage of terrible teams.

After a walk off win Tuesday, the next two games become blowouts against the Milwaukee Brewers. Even in a game where the Brewers lose their starting pitcher after one pitch, the Mets offense is backed to being non existent. P.S.

Episode 358 features fascinating conversations with acclaimed barbecue writer and Texas Monthly barbecue editor Daniel Vaughn and former Major League Baseball pitcher Doug Sisk, whose nine-year MLB career included a memorable run with the New York Mets and much more. Daniel Vaughn is one of the most influential voices in American barbecue and the longtime Barbecue Editor for Texas Monthly. In 2013, Daniel became the first full-time barbecue editor at a major American magazine, a position he continues to hold today. Vaughn first made his mark with his barbecue blog, Full Custom Gospel BBQ, where he documented his travels throughout Texas in search of great smoked meat. His work eventually led to his acclaimed book, The Prophets of Smoked Meat: A Journey Through Texas Barbecue. As Texas Monthly's Barbecue Editor, Vaughn has traveled thousands of miles eating, reviewing and documenting barbecue across Texas and beyond. He oversees the magazine's legendary Top 50 Barbecue Joints in Texas list, one of the most influential rankings in the barbecue world.  In 2026 he was named number one on Underseasoned BBQ's list of the 150 Most Influential People in BBQ, further recognizing the enormous impact he has had on the way barbecue is judged, discussed and celebrated. On this episode we talk with Daniel Vaughn about his journey from architect and barbecue blogger to one of the most respected barbecue journalists in the country, his travels in pursuit of great barbecue, and the people and traditions that make American barbecue such a fascinating part of our culture. Doug Sisk is a former Major League Baseball pitcher who spent nine seasons in the big leagues, most notably as a member of the New York Mets' pitching staff during their unforgettable 1986 World Series championship season. A right-handed reliever known for his sinking fastball, Sisk was particularly effective at keeping the ball in the ballpark—he surrendered just 15 home runs in more than 500 innings during his Major League career. A native of Washington state, Doug attended Green River Community College and Washington State University before signing with the Mets as an amateur free agent in 1980. He made his Major League debut with New York in 1982 and went on to pitch for the Mets, Baltimore Orioles and Atlanta Braves. His career totals include a 22-20 record, 3.27 ERA, 33 saves and 523⅓ innings pitched. Doug was an important member of the 1986 Mets, appearing in 41 games during the championship season. He also pitched in the World Series, helping the Mets capture one of the most memorable championships in baseball history. On this episode Doug Sisk takes us back to his playing days, his journey to the Major Leagues, and his experiences with the 1986 New York Mets. He shares stories from inside one of baseball's most legendary clubhouses and reflects on his career, teammates and the unforgettable run to a World Series championship.

Follow along as Kevin Clancy (aka KFC Barstool) and Clem (aka The Clem Report) battle through another season with The New York Mets. Will the Mets finally make history with Uncle Stevie (Steve Cohen) at the helm of the franchise? Or did the Wilpons curse the team and ruin all hope of ever winning a World Series? We can't think that way. Uncle Stevie is the bright light in the middle of the dark. We're going to be an amazing (or at the very least respectable) team this team. We Gotta Believe.

George Lombard Jr. has committed an error in six straight games, turning the Yankees rookie's defensive struggles into a major debate before a crucial Red Sox series. Evan Roberts believes sitting Lombard now could make the mental pressure even worse and wants him to play through it, while Shaun Morash argues a night off could help stop the spiral before it becomes a bigger problem. They also dig into the Yankees' shaky offense, their difficult matchups against Boston's left-handed pitching and why Aaron Judge's return could be the boost the lineup desperately needs. Plus, Evan recounts a wild night at Citi Field featuring Mets squishy dumplings and an unexpectedly revealing singles night.

The Jets' Aaron Rodgers decision gets a major second look, with Evan admitting they probably should have tried to make it work instead of immediately moving on. Jerry Recco joins the conversation as they question Aaron Glenn's handling of Rodgers and wonder whether keeping him as a transition quarterback could have changed the Jets' direction. Juan Soto and Francisco Lindor also spark intrigue after Soto was the first to congratulate Lindor on a home run, raising questions about whether their relationship has genuinely improved. Plus, Kevin Durant admits his biggest sports regret was failing to win a championship with the Nets, and the crew debates whether Brian Cashman's long Yankees tenure may finally be nearing its natural endpoint.

Citi Field's Singles Night takes a bizarre turn as Evan Roberts reveals what attendees told him about the crowd and dating scene. Plus, Evan defends his mission to collect as many Mets squishy dumplings as possible for his kids and admits he's enjoying George Lombard Jr.'s error streak more than Yankees fans would like.

With Boomer out today, Gio and Jerry take the mic ahead of the Jerry Recco Beach Bash at Salt Shack on Long Island later today. Geno Smith isn't playing tonight, Jaxson Dart's status is uncertain, the Yankees face the Red Sox, and the guys debate whether starting QBs should play in the preseason. C-Lo drops his first update featuring sounds from the Yankees' loss to the Astros—including a pitcher whose last name sounds like "blue balls"—and George Lombard Jr. making an error in his sixth straight game. Finally, the Mets dropped their series to the Brewers, Al Michaels celebrates his 60th wedding anniversary, and the hour wraps up with Chris Stapleton's song about his dog alongside other sad father-daughter songs.

C-Lo starts with the sounds of the Yankees losing to the Astros and a pitcher with a last name that sounds like ‘blue balls'. George Lombard Jr made another error last night, making that six straight games. The Mets lost to the Brewers and dropped the series.

They also preview the Phillies' upcoming series, analyzing potential bullpen roles for Andrew Painter and the team's hitting approach as the postseason nears. 01:00 - Bengals-Eagles Preseason Talk 03:30 - Buzz Baseball Report 04:30 - Mike Trout's Legacy 06:36 - Andrew Painter's Return 07:18 - Painter's Postseason Role 09:48 - Weekend Broadcast Schedule 11:35 - Chase Utley Dirty Narrative 17:21 - Phillies Playoff Identity 20:01 - Buzzy Baseball Conclusion 20:25 - Twitter Poll: Makai Lemon

Brian Cashman's trade deadline is looking better offensively, but the Yankees' bullpen could become the decision that defines their postseason. Luis Garcia Jr. has been a massive addition, Austin Wells is finally producing like a functioning major league catcher, and the lineup is clicking. But Fernando Cruz's devastating injury exposes the risk of Cashman failing to add a reliever, leaving major questions about how the Yankees will get the final nine outs in October. Shaun Morash is in for Tiki Barber alongside Evan Roberts as they debate whether Eugenio Suarez should be added off waivers, George Lombard Jr.'s alarming error streak, and whether Anthony Volpe could actually become part of the conversation again. Plus, Mike Breen tells an incredible story about celebrating the Mets' famous 1986 World Series comeback from inside the Red Sox radio booth.

Pete Alonso's return to Citi Field could become an uncomfortable night for the Mets, with Evan Roberts predicting fans may treat Alonso like the home-team star. Plus, Evan and Shaun Morash battle over Jaxson Dart versus Geno Smith, debate a new extra-innings idea, and get pulled into the absurd Babe Ruth conspiracy.

Pete Alonso's return to Citi Field could turn into an unforgettable scene, with Evan Roberts predicting Mets fans may treat the former franchise star like the home-team hero. Evan compares Alonso's looming reception to Eddie Giacomin's legendary Rangers return and debates whether the Mets should even raise the home run apple if Alonso reaches a milestone. Shaun Morash is in for Tiki Barber alongside Evan Roberts as the Geno Smith versus Jaxson Dart argument heats up again, including whether the Jets have any realistic path to eight wins. Plus, the NFL officially kills the Pro Bowl games, the guys dream up a wild Yankees-Mets tripleheader, and a ridiculous Babe Ruth conspiracy takes over Cinco de Five.

Mike Breen reveals an incredible story from Game 6 of the 1986 World Series, admitting he celebrated the Mets' legendary comeback while standing inside the Red Sox radio booth. Evan and Shaun react to Breen's confession and debate how New York fans handle championships, droughts, and decades of bragging rights. Plus, Evan explains exactly how unbearable he would become if the Jets ever won a Super Bowl.

A mercy rule is coming to Major League Baseball, and Evan Roberts believes the way managers now surrender blowouts makes it inevitable. After the Mets essentially waved the white flag against Milwaukee, Evan and Shaun Morash debate how a run rule could work, why teams would embrace it, and whether fans would accept games ending early.

Gordon Damer is in for Jerry with the sounds of Ben Rice's HR in the win over Houston. Brewers pitcher Dustin May lasted one pitch as AJ Ewing hit a liner right into his back. Mike Breen was in the SNY booth last night and gushed over Keith Hernandez. The bodycam footage of Jed York's arrest hit the internet.

As we head into the final month of the 2026 season, have our feelings changed on the City Connect jerseys, now that the initial wave of reaction has cooled off? The Brewers are playing well in them, including the Misiorowski-Sale clash last Friday, and there's another upcoming battle this week. Milwaukee radio veteran Bart Winkler joins the show to discuss why the "Wisco" look bothers him so much and if anything has changed since the season began. Why do we care about uniforms so much, anyway? Have fans come around to embrace the look? Is there anything weird about the team marketing to the "rest of the state" so eagerly?Before that, host JR Radcliffe is joined by Journal Sentinel beat reporter Curt Hogg from New York, and he discusses the controversial decision by manager Pat Murphy to bench Cooper Pratt for poor fundamentals ... a decision that had consequences in Milwaukee's 3-2 loss to the Mets on Tuesday. Is it part of a concerning trend? Or was it simply Murphy knowing his clubhouse, even if he's using "old school" methods?

SHOW OPEN. Tommy talks about Fernando Cruz's injury and what the Yankees can do to still be a top bullpen. SHOW OPEN.

Former Alabama quarterback Jake Coker and Mick Gillispie break down the latest surrounding Alabama Crimson Tide football as the 2026 college football season approaches — including a surprise defensive starter, a devastating injury, a major future scheduling change and one of the SEC's best rivalries bringing back an incredible tradition.

Follow along as Kevin Clancy (aka KFC Barstool) and Clem (aka The Clem Report) battle through another season with The New York Mets.

Al wants to be a third base coach, but didn't watch the Mets

A massive Jets rumor has Evan Roberts and Shaun Morash imagining the ultimate franchise reset: Mike Tomlin as head coach and Lamar Jackson at quarterback. Evan believes Woody Johnson would aggressively pursue Tomlin if the job opens, while Shaun questions the reporting but admits money and desperation could make Tomlin a legitimate possibility. Shaun Morash is in for Tiki Barber alongside Evan Roberts as they debate whether the Jets have any real chance to surprise this season, revisit Malik Nabers versus Garrett Wilson, and discuss Andy Green as a potential Mets general manager. Plus, Ric Flair's bizarre Dolly Parton tribute sparks disbelief.

Pete Alonso's return to Citi Field could turn into an unforgettable scene, especially with the former Met closing in on 300 career home runs. The debate gets heated over just how far Mets fans should go in welcoming Alonso back, including whether it is acceptable to actually root for him to succeed against the Mets.

Evan and Sean discuss Pete Alonso's upcoming return to Citi Field as he nears the 300-career home run milestone.
