BT and Sal unleash a torrent of commentary following former Mets reliever Adam Ottavino's fiery podcast remarks, where he torches Carlos Mendoza, accusing the manager of "pathetic" bullpen usage and questioning if the organization "even care[s]" about pitcher health, leading to a record number of Tommy John surgeries. Ottavino also stirs the pot by calling former teammate Brandon Nimmo "sensitive" regarding clubhouse leadership and media stories. The hosts also tackle Brian Cashman's defense of Trent Grisham using cryptic "underlying information" and debate whether the Mets should trade the declining Nimmo, McNeil, and Senga during the Hot Stove season. Finally, it's time for the "Perfect Parlay" picks for NFL Week 12. Hoff leads the scoring race, prompting a "desperate" Sal to roll out a three-team parlay with the Giants/Lions Over 50.5 and the 49ers -7. Tierney lays a big -13 with the Lions and takes the Cowboys +3.5 as an upset special.

BT & Sal ignite an explosive discussion starting with former Mets reliever Adam Ottavino's shocking podcast remarks, where he accused manager Carlos Mendoza of "pathetic" bullpen usage leading to a surgery crisis and called Brandon Nimmo "sensitive." The focus then shifts to the Giants, as Jaxson Dart is officially ruled out this weekend, forcing a debate on protecting the young QB from "idiotic" play-calling and whether interim coach Mike Kafka is a viable long-term option. On the baseball hot stove, the hosts clash over the Yankees' free agency targets—is Kyle Tucker or Cody Bellinger the better fit?—and furiously debate a potential trade for Corey Seager, with one host willing to risk the huge contract for his October pedigree and the other calling it a guaranteed "Stanton disaster." Finally, sports betting insider Nick Kostos joins to deliver his NFL Week 12 picks, including the Giants/Lions OVER, before BT, Sal, and Hoff unveil their "Perfect Parlay" bets.

BT & Sal ignite a heated argument with Hoff over a hypothetical Mets trade proposal by Jim Bowden, which sends four top prospects (Tong, Sproat, Williams, Mauricio) to Detroit for one year of Cy Young winner Tarik Skubal. BT is "in a heartbeat" for the trade, arguing they must be aggressive to land a frontline ace. Hoff slams it as "irresponsible", insisting they absolutely cannot trade that "butt load of prospects" without a guaranteed contract extension, comparing the high cost to the Yankees' "bunch of nothing" price for Juan Soto. The debate centers on risk: the Mets' willingness to gamble on an extension versus the risk of being "stupid" and losing their best young talent for a one-year rental.

BT & Sal kick off the segment with a mix of disgust and fascination over football player Cam Skattebo's latest viral stunt: chugging an energy drink from his cleat (a "Shoey"). Then, they dive into a fiery hypothetical: an Athletic-proposed trade for Tigers ace Tarik Skubal involving a Yankees package of Spencer Jones, Will Warren, and two pitching prospects. The hosts debate whether this offer is deliberately undervaluing Skubal compared to the Mets' reported trade pieces, reigniting the argument over the true quality of the Yankees' farm system. The conversation shifts to the upcoming Japanese posting window, with Sal confidently predicting the Mets and Yankees will each land a star, while Tierney is skeptical, fearing the Dodgers will collect everyone. They discuss the worrying scouting report on star hitter Munetaka Murakami and his inability to hit fastballs over 93 MPH. The segment wraps up by venting about high NBA ticket prices and the outrage fans feel when high-priced stars like Giannis sit out.

BT & Sal unleash a fiery critique on the Detroit Tigers' front office for considering waiting until the trade deadline to move ace Tarik Skubal. Sal calls the idea "idiotic" and argues Skubal's value will "never be as good as it is right now" due to the high risk of injury (citing Gerrit Cole) and the loss of team control. He demands the exec who floated the idea be fired for being a "moron." The hosts pivot to a bold Mets trade scenario: acquiring elite talent like Gold Glovers Ezequiel Tovar and Brenton Doyle from the Rockies by taking on the catastrophic contract of Kris Bryant (still owed nearly $90 million). BT shuts down the idea after discovering Doyle's alarmingly low on-base percentage, but the debate emphasizes the Mets' need to be "very creative" on the trade front.

BT & Sal dive into a heated debate over whether the Yankees should stick with Ryan McMahon at third base or pursue free-agent star Alex Bregman. Sal champions the current player, arguing that McMahon's elite defense and lower cost at $16 million outweigh his lack of offense, especially since Bregman (turning 32) is perceived as being "on the decline," drawing parallels to the failed signing of DJ LeMahieu. Tierney fiercely counters, labeling McMahon as a "lower-level player" with "no stick" and demanding the Yankees pursue the unequivocally "better player" in Bregman, regardless of his anticipated 5-6 year contract or age, stating that the priority must be winning a World Series now. The discussion also touches on whether Cody Bellinger's history of success under New York scrutiny makes him a better target for the Mets.

BT & Sal ignite a heated argument with Hoff over a hypothetical Mets trade proposal by Jim Bowden, which sends four top prospects (Tong, Sproat, Williams, Mauricio) to Detroit for one year of Cy Young winner Tarik Skubal. BT is "in a heartbeat" for the trade, arguing they must be aggressive to land a frontline ace. Hoff slams it as "irresponsible", insisting they absolutely cannot trade that "butt load of prospects" without a guaranteed contract extension, comparing the high cost to the Yankees' "bunch of nothing" price for Juan Soto. The debate centers on risk: the Mets' willingness to gamble on an extension versus the risk of being "stupid" and losing their best young talent for a one-year rental.

BT & Sal ignite a debate over the latest ESPN farm system rankings, which shockingly place the Mets at #1 and the Yankees dramatically lower at #15 for 2025. They question if the Yankees' lack of development is due to constantly trading prospects for big-name acquisitions or rushing players like Volpe and Dominguez to the majors. The discussion pivots to a caller asking if the Yankees should pursue Fernando Tatis Jr. from the Padres, leading to a breakdown of his $292 million "albatross" contract and past PED issues. Finally, a mixed-race Mets fan calls in with a hot take on culture, arguing the Mets failed to land Japanese stars like Yamamoto because the organization is not "culturally intelligent" enough to make Queens appealing, despite the borough's high Asian population. They debate whether Steve Cohen did enough to honor Asian traditions during the recruiting process.

BT & Sal dive into a fiery "Call of the Day" that sparks a huge debate over player acquisitions, specifically whether acquiring Alex Bregman is a mistake, with Sal comparing him to a "declining" DJ LeMahieu due to his age (32) and salary. Tierney challenges the caller's preference for the defense-first Ryan McMahon, forcing an admission that Bregman is clearly the better player. The conversation shifts to a fascinating "Time Machine" question: If you could go back to one sporting event in history, which would it be? Sal picks a sentimental New York baseball pilgrimage to Ebbets Field and the Polo Grounds with his grandfather, while Tierney's highly unusual choice is the amateur golfer Bobby Jones in the 1920s. They also touch on the mind of A-Rod, debating his insecurities and his interview with Katie Couric.

BT and Sal kick off the show with the bizarre video of Cam Skattebo performing a "shoey"—drinking an energy drink from a cleat—and his sideline antics. The hosts ignite a debate over a hypothetical Yankees trade for Tarik Skubal, questioning if a package including Spencer Jones and Will Warren is enough to beat the competition, and are shocked that ESPN ranks the Yankees' farm system at a disappointing 25th, compared to the Mets' #1 ranking. The conversation pivots to the international market, where they discuss the race for Japanese stars like Kaz Okamoto and the surprisingly low batting average of Munetaka Murakami against fastballs. A caller then proposes a trade for Fernando Tatis Jr., forcing the hosts to dissect his massive, albatross-like contract. In the Call of the Day, the guys argue over Alex Bregman's declining value against Ryan McMahon's solid defense. The show wraps up with a fun time-machine question: What single historical sporting event would they go back to?

BT & Sal dive into a hypothetical (but fiery!) discussion about Pete Alonso wearing a Yankees uniform. While acknowledging reports that the Yankees have no interest in the Polar Bear, Sal argues that a move for Alonso would be a smart piece of a necessary "restructuring" for the Yankees—specifically, by trading Giancarlo Stanton and replacing his power and DH slot with an everyday first baseman and DH option in Pete. The conversation gets personal as they debate the emotional fallout for Mets fans if their franchise slugger jumped to the hated Yankees. Sal asserts that his hatred for the Yankees would "usurp" any affection for Pete, but Hoff and Sal debate where Mets fans would draw the line. The segment also touches on the frustrating lack of development and hype surrounding Yankees prospects like Jasson Dominguez and Mets prospect Carson Benge.

BT and Sal unleash a fiery debate over Sal's "home run blueprint" for the Mets' perfect offseason, which centers on trading for ace Tarik Skubal, signing a frontline starter like Ranger Suarez (while Sal dismisses Dylan Cease as "just another dude"), and re-signing Pete Alonso—especially since he's open to DH. The discussion heats up as they clash over the realism of acquiring Skubal and the $400 million contract that would follow. Sal pushes for a big bat like Bellinger, Tucker, or Bregman to complete the lineup, leading to a controversial take: is trading Nimmo the better long-term move if it means keeping a DH-capable Alonso and improving the overall team defense? The stakes are high for David Stearns and Steve Cohen to execute a massive overhaul.

BT & Sal dive into a fiery debate over the Yankees and Mets' intertwined offseason, focusing on a direct clash for Cody Bellinger and the closer market (Edwin Diaz vs. Devin Williams). Sal argues the Mets must pursue Bellinger and go "pedal to the metal," while BT has more faith in Brian Cashman's urgency than David Stearns' willingness to spend like a big-market GM. The Mets' need for a "shake up" dominates the conversation, with discussion of trading Senga (despite the desperate need for pitching) and moving core players like McNeil, Nimmo, Baty, and Vientos—the guys Sal is "tired of waiting on." The segment concludes with BT teasing his "Grand Slam Mets Offseason" plan, a four-component blueprint he believes would make the Mets World Series contenders.
