BT & Sal launch a fiery debate over David Stearns' approach to free agency, specifically the looming decisions on Pete Alonso and Edwin Diaz. Sal argues for a hardline, decisive approach—a "take it or leave it" offer to stop being held up by prolonged negotiations, as he believes the Mets are operating in a frustrating "gray area" by saying they want the players but waiting for the market. BT counters that the Mets need to respect the free agency process and the optics of a harsh negotiation. The hosts agree that the Mets' willingness to go all-in for Soto or Yamamoto is a clear contrast to their patient, cost-conscious stance with their own stars, which suggests they don't want Alonso back "like that." The discussion concludes with a shared frustration over agent Scott Boras's tactics and the potential for these negotiations to drag out until February.

The Mets are officially on the clock in Vegas. Pete Alonso and Edwin Díaz have both hit free agency after opting out of their deals, and David Stearns is trying to thread the needle between keeping his stars and reshaping the roster. We break down the latest from the GM Meetings in Las Vegas, what Scott Boras is saying about Alonso, where things stand with Díaz after a dominant 2025, and which free agents Stearns should be targeting as the market opens. We'll talk Alonso's monster walk-year season, Díaz's contract calculus after another elite campaign, the Mets' stated priorities in center field, the rotation and the bullpen, plus which names on this winter's loaded free-agent board actually make sense in Queens.

On the latest episode of The Mets Pod presented by Tri-State Cadillac, Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo react to all the offseason noise coming out of the GM Meetings in Las Vegas. Connor and Joe react to quotes from Mets president of baseball ops David Stearns about Carson Benge having a chance to make the team, the possible returns of Pete Alonso and Edwin Diaz, the future for Kodai Senga, and the search for a “Number One” starting pitcher.  The guys go Down on the Farm to decode what Stearns said about Jett Williams, and also answer Mailbag questions about Shota Imanaga, Dustin May, Alek Manoah, and Trent Grisham.

Hour 2 kicks off with Boomer & Gio digging into Disney's major earnings day as their standoff with YouTubeTV continues. Gio admits he watches regular YouTube more than anything else, sparking a debate about how people actually consume TV now. Jerry Recco returns for an update—but only after the guys roast him for still having an actual antenna at home. They revisit Mike Kafka's comments about staying close with Brian Daboll, then react to Michael Penix Jr. surprisingly admitting he doesn't really have teammates to lean on during tough days. The Knicks drop their first home game of the season at MSG, Scott Boras delivers another alliteration-filled pitch on Pete Alonso's free agency, and the hour wraps with a preview of Packers/Giants featuring Drew Brees on the call alongside Adam Amin.

In this week's new material, we compare a team signing a low-OBP player to the girl you were crushing on choosing the only suitor you would have had her avoid (not that it was up to you, but also not that the universe isn't cruel that way), all of which may turn out to be a tortured political metaphor. Then we return to 2016 for the Dodgers at third base, the tragic and not-at-all funny tale of Giants pitcher Bugs Raymond, and a lot of talk about Yoenis Cespedes falling off a horse. The Infinite Inning is a journey to the past to understand the present using baseball as our time machine. America's brighter mirror, baseball reflects, anticipates, and even mocks the stories we tell ourselves about our world today. Baseball Prospectus's Steven Goldman shares his obsessions: history from inside and outside of the game, politics, stats, and Casey Stengel quotations. Along the way, we'll try to solve the puzzle that is the Infinite Inning: How do you find the joy in life when you can't get anybody out? 

Hour 2: Keith reacts to some Mets and Yankees news from the MLB GM Meetings

The Mets must come back with a vengeance and Yankees fans are spoiled. Ben Rice will handle first base, what about catcher for the Yankees?

Bobby Valentine joins Jay Horwitz for an emotional and wide-ranging Amazin' Conversations — covering everything from the legendary mustache disguise in 1999 to his induction into the Mets Hall of Fame with Carlos Beltrán and Lee Mazzilli. Bobby reflects on his playing and managing career with the Mets, his bond with the fans, the 2000 National League pennant run, and unforgettable moments like Robin Ventura's Grand Slam Single. Bobby and Jay also revisit the 9/11 season, sharing powerful stories about the team's role in healing the city, Mike Piazza's iconic homer, the work players did behind the scenes, and the fans who inspired them. This is the full Bobby V story — baseball, leadership, heart, and the moments that shaped Mets history. 00:00 – The Mustache Disguise Story01:14 – Breaking the Tension in 199902:06 – Bobby on the Mets Hall of Fame03:12 – Playing & Coaching With Legends04:23 – Managing Through the Late 90s06:06 – Turning the Mets Around07:01 – Getting the Most Out of Players07:49 – Why Mets Fans Love Bobby V08:49 – Battling the Braves & Yankees09:12 – The Full Mustache Story (Again!)10:11 – Players Reacting to the Disguise11:14 – The 2000 Pennant Run12:21 – Robin Ventura's Grand Slam Single13:18 – Japan Trip & Benny Agbayani14:17 – Leadership Through 9/1115:08 – September 11 Memories16:07 – The Team Giving Back17:21 – Mike Piazza's 9/11 Home Run18:24 – The Ashes in the Bullpen Story19:14 – Final Thoughts & Mets Legacy Learn more about your ad choices.

The New York Mets had a bad 2025 season, but don't worry about that. 2026 is here and we get to go through it all again with David Stearns behind the wheel.

BT & Sal ignite the offseason discussion, declaring Cody Bellinger the "linchpin" for the Yankees' success and arguing that both New York teams need to abandon "fair market value" for a necessary, "irrational" approach to win. They dive into a shocking report from Joel Sherman suggesting the Mets are "spitballing" a trade of Brandon Nimmo—a move that could clear salary and upgrade defense, but signals a major philosophical shift for David Stearns. The focus then pivots to the NFL for their Week 11 Power Up Rankings. Sal shocks by putting the Patriots at No. 5 and leaving the Chiefs out, while BT puts the Patriots at No. 1 due to their consistent winning and coaching, dropping the Chiefs to No. 4. The guys debate whether the Broncos and Rams have done enough to earn top spots, and predict a crushing loss for the Jets against the Patriots tonight.

Sal vents his fiery frustration over his lack of a texting relationship with Alex Rodriguez, feeling personally snubbed that A-Rod only reaches out to his co-host Brandon Tierney and his podcast partner, Jimmy Traina. He humorously questions what he needs to do to get A-Rod's attention—rip him or kiss up to him—and wonders if A-Rod even likes him. Tierney provides context, explaining that A-Rod expressed a genuine fondness for Sal but may simply be "Alex" (sincere and normal) with them, rather than "A-Rod" (the guarded public figure). The conversation touches on A-Rod's past, his infamous lie to Mike Francesa on The Fan, and Sal's forgotten bond with A-Rod over being an '86 Mets fan and coincidentally attending the same movie screening.

BT & Sal kick off with a furious post-mortem on the Knicks' loss, with Sal taking aim at coach Mike Brown for leaving Jalen Brunson in late and comparing the heat he'd get to former coach Tom Thibodeau. They pivot to the Yankees, dissecting the long-standing "suck wind" problem of player development that continues to plague the organization. The show takes a turn as Sal hilariously airs his personal grievance with Alex Rodriguez, revealing he's offended the former slugger texts BT and a mutual colleague, but snubs Sal! The Mets discussion heats up with news that the Orioles are entering the Pete Alonso sweepstakes and a caller raising concerns over the logistical nightmare of Citi Field construction once Steve Cohen gets his casino license. The show wraps with a look at the Jets' hopeless matchup against the Patriots and a fiery call of the day.

BT and Sal dive into an explosive report from Joel Sherman suggesting the Mets are "spit-balling" scenarios to trade veteran outfielder Brandon Nimmo. With five years and over $100 million left on his contract, the Mets' motivation is to upgrade a poor defense and gain roster flexibility, even if it means eating some salary. Sal supports moving on from a contract that David Stearns wouldn't have signed, while BT sees it as an "out-of-the-box" move that could define a transformative offseason. The conversation also touches on other potential trade targets, like Ketel Marte, as the guys conclude that no one is untouchable this winter for the new front office.

BT & Sal ignite a fierce debate on how the Yankees and Mets can realistically compete with the Dodgers' powerhouse, star-stockpiling strategy. They argue that both New York teams must stop being "afraid to make mistakes" and aggressively "eat" bad contracts to maintain a competitive edge, just like the Yankees of old. The conversation centers on the Dodgers' financial model, specifically the Ohtani deferral deal, which Sal calls a "perfect storm" built on a willing star, and question why the Mets and Yankees haven't been as innovative. For the Yankees, they explore bold moves like trading Rodón to make room for an elite arm like Skubal and question the value of trading a top prospect like Lombard for a rental. The bottom line: The Dodgers have raised the bar, and New York must match the intensity and financial bravado.

BT and Sal tear into the Jets' primetime matchup against the Patriots, with BT predicting a "bloodbath" given the team's struggles, while Sal holds out hope for a "competitive" showing to build on the Aaron Glenn era. In baseball, the hosts turn to the Hot Stove, fiercely debating how the Yankees and Mets must "load up" to compete with the Dodgers' high-spending, star-stockpiling strategy, fueled by the Ohtani deferral model. Sal proposes an aggressive trade: Marté over Chisholm for the Yankees. Finally, legendary comedian Marlon Wayans joins the show to talk about his return to Scary Movie 6, crushing cancel culture, and why he believes the world desperately needs "no holds barred" comedy like Archie Bunker to bring people together.

BT & Sal unleash a fiery Yankees offseason demand: Cody Bellinger is a "must-sign" that the team cannot afford to miss, arguing they must abandon "fair market value" and aggressively "load up." They dissect potential trades for Steven Kwan and Alex Bregman and float the nuclear option of trading Carlos Rodón. The Mets side of the Hot Stove is equally hot with a shocking report that Brandon Nimmo is being "spitballed" as a trade piece, signaling a massive philosophical shift for David Stearns. Sal airs a hilarious personal grievance against Alex Rodriguez, who texts everyone but Sal. Off the field, the hosts dive into a bizarre celebrity tangent, debating the definition of "swordsman" sparked by Sydney Sweeney drama, and welcome Marlon Wayans to discuss comedy and crushing cancel culture. The show wraps with a brutal assessment of the Jets' upcoming primetime game and a controversial NFL Power Up Ranking that leaves the Chiefs out of the top spots!

BT & Sal dive into the high-stakes GM meetings, demanding the Mets' front office stop their "penny stock" ways and "Go BIG" to close the gap with the Dodgers. They debate an all-star offseason wishlist—Bellinger, Bregman, Alonso—and whether the Yankees should trade Cam Schlittler for Paul Skenes now. The temperature spikes as they slam Jets coach Aaron Glenn for his petty and unnecessary feud with the media, calling out his "prick" behavior for deflecting injury questions and questioning his overall "Parcells-lite" strategy. Finally, UFC Middleweight Bo Nickal joins the studio ahead of his main prelim event at UFC 322 at Madison Square Garden. Nickal discusses overcoming his first career loss, the mentality of a fighter, and why MMA is a more complete sport than boxing. Tierney gets so sold on Nickal's confidence that he vows to "hammer the odds" on his fight!

BT & Sal go off on the Mets' offseason strategy, arguing that the front office is playing a waiting game with Pete Alonso and should "call his bluff" with a massive, immediate offer to lock him up. They dissect David Stearns' "prudent" approach, questioning his ability to build a winner with the immense pressure and payroll of the Cohen era, especially concerning Edwin Diaz's contract demands. The focus shifts to the Giants' coaching chaos: they debate if the mid-season shake-up, placing Mike Kafka in charge, will provide a true evaluation of Joe Schoen's roster, or if any wins will be a "false representation" of a bad roster/front office. Plus, the hosts break down the Paul Skenes trade rumors, debating if the Yankees should liquidate their best prospects (Schlittler, Jones, Rice) for the "rock star" ace. Finally, the guys tackle a wild Three Random Questions: Is it odd to have feelings for a plant or non-living thing? (Tierney loves his Arborvitae!) What's your favorite soup? (Sal's Italian Wedding vs. BT's despised pea soup!) Where would you rank Sauce Gardner amongst other sauces? (Hint: he's dropped to the "discount rack"!)

BT & Sal dive deep into the Mets' offseason strategy, debating whether GM David Stearns can balance his restrained management style with Steve Cohen's massive checkbook. Sal insists the Mets need at least two top-tier starting pitchers and a major offensive change, while Tierney questions Stearns' hesitation on re-signing Pete Alonso, urging an aggressive, take-it-or-leave-it offer. The guys clash with callers over Alonso's value and debate potential free-agent fits like Bregman, Bichette, and Schwarber. The discussion explodes with an explosive report that Pirates ace Paul Skenes is "hoping for a trade" to the Yankees. The hosts emphatically agree that New York must give up "whatever it takes," including beloved young starter Clarke Schlittler, to acquire the transcendent, under-control superstar pitcher. They argue that Skenes' long-term control makes him the ultimate prize and a transformational trade target.

BT & Sal are in complete agreement on one fiery topic: The Yankees (and Mets) must be all-in to acquire Pirates ace Paul Skenes, who is under team control through the 2029 season. Sal argues that Pittsburgh must trade him within the next few years to maximize value, likely with three seasons left. The hosts clash with caller "Frankie from Bay Ridge," who insists that Yankees prospect Cam Schlittler is "more proven" and shouldn't be included in any deal for Skenes. The hosts vehemently disagree, arguing that Skenes is a "transformational superstar" whose every outing is equivalent to Schlittler's best playoff performance, making any package involving top prospects like Schlittler, Spencer Jones, and Jasson Domínguez a no-brainer. The segment concludes by quickly revisiting the Pete Alonso contract discussion, prompted by a caller confusing Alonso's value with Bo Bichette's.

From 'Rico Brogna' (subscribe here): The New York Mets will need to bulk up their starting rotation. A good place to look to is in free agency. Will David Stearns take a gamble on a pitcher or two? Even if it means giving up a draft pick? To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
