Craig Carton and Big Mac go head-to-head on WFAN after the Mets trade two top prospects for Freddy Peralta. Is this a bold World Series move… or a massive overpay for a one-year rental? From Steve Cohen's spending, David Stearns pressure, Pete Alonso fallout, and Mets fans being “happy being miserable,” this segment gets HEATED fast. If the Mets don't win big, Carton says there are NO excuses.

Craig Carton and Big Mac break down David Stearns' controversial Mets rebuild after moving on from Pete Alonso, Jeff McNeil, and Brandon Nimmo — and ask the uncomfortable question: are the Mets actually better now? The guys debate power replacement, pitching upgrades, defensive changes, and whether fans are overreacting. Then the show goes completely off the rails with a viral NFL conspiracy theory about the 49ers' injury problems, Carton's take on cancel culture vs prison, a John Wick argument

In Episode 518, Patrick, Jeffrey and Craig chat about QR codes Lebanese cinema and then discuss five mostly baseball topics.  1. Because We Are a Mets Podcast: Turns out the offseason didn't end for the Mets after Pete Alonso signed elsewhere.2. There is No Such Thing as a Free Agency: It kept going for a lot of other teams too.3. The Politics of Glory: We have two new Hall of Famers, and some notable names take a big jump. 4. Around the Horn: A three-team trade you may have already forgotten about (yes it involves the Rays), and Atlanta once more is down a shortstop.5.

The Mets finally make the move everyone assumed would never happen, acquiring Luis Robert Jr. and forcing a hard look at what this roster is really becoming. Evan, Tiki, and Shaun debate why the trade makes sense defensively, why the upside is real despite two rough seasons, and why the only true risk might be financial. The conversation turns into a deeper breakdown of David Stearns' long term vision, the famous “painting” analogy, and whether this lineup is better, worse, or just wildly different after losing Pete Alonso and reshaping the middle of the field. They dive into Robert's change of scenery potential, the Mets' desperate need for a real center fielder, and how bad last year's production truly was at that spot. Plus, the ripple effect on the Cody Bellinger sweepstakes, why the Mets likely have a short term offer out, and why Yankees fans may feel more confident as the staredown with Scott Boras continues. The big question remains: when you squint at this roster, is the picture starting to come together or does it still feel unfinished?

Craig Carton and Big Mac deliver a wildly unhinged WFAN segment that only The Carton Show can produce. It starts with a caller celebrating the Yankees' Cody Bellinger signing before veering into youth baseball nostalgia, the revival of New York's Borough Cup, and a deep dive into Mets fans' mixed emotions after losing Pete Alonso and trading for Luis Robert Jr. The madness escalates with peacocks roaming New Jersey backyards, haunted Lake Ronkonkoma lore, American history arguments, Ikea horse meatball debates, and an all-time discussion on whether cheating actually matters in baseball.

Mark Corbett and Mat Germain break down one of the most explosive stretches of MLB free agency in recent memory. With massive contracts, shocking signings, and widening payroll gaps, the duo digs into what these moves mean for competitive balance, player equity, and the future of Major League Baseball.From Kyle Tucker's blockbuster deal with the Dodgers to the Mets' smart pivot with Bo Bichette, this episode explores who's winning, who's losing, and why the system itself may be reaching a breaking point.MLB Free Agency ExplosionKyle Tucker signs a massive deal with the Dodgers, doubling Pete Alonso's AAVWhy the Dodgers felt desperate to get younger amid an aging coreThe true cost of star-heavy rosters and long-term riskAging Rosters & Hidden CracksDodgers' projected roster age concernsDefensive regression as the overlooked weaknessWhy pitching depth can't mask aging position players foreverMets Pivot SmartlyMets lose out on Tucker but land Bo BichetteHow Bichette improves infield versatility, offense, and defenseWhy Mat prefers Bichette over Tucker for the MetsBlue Jays at a CrossroadsLosing their best hitter and what it means for TorontoAging George Springer and rising lineup riskWhy Cody Bellinger could be their next critical moveCompetitive Balance & Salary Cap DebateTwo owners (Dodgers & Mets) changing the entire marketWhy 26 teams realistically can't compete for elite free agentsHow lack of parity hurts players, fans, and the league's valueFloor + ceiling vs. the current “luxury tax theater”Rank-and-File Players Left BehindHow top-10% contracts squeeze out middle-class MLB playersArbitration battles over minimal dollarsWhy a salary floor could help more players than a pure capThe Player Extension DilemmaElly De La Cruz and the risk of waiting until free agencyHow looming CBA changes impact long-term decisionsWill fear of a future cap push players to extend earlier?Trades & Team DirectionJosh Lowe to the Angels and the culture shift in AnaheimRays add Gavin Lux and improve defensively up the middleTampa Bay's growing AA/AAA pitching surplus and trade leverageBig Picture MLB QuestionsWhy fans don't care if the Dodgers win another titleComparisons to NFL parity and playoff accessWhy MLB risks becoming predictable - and boringNotable Moments“This is getting obscene.”  -  on payroll disparityThe idea of realigning divisions (Mets & Yankees together!)Mat's evolving Free Agent All-Star Team in real time“Live free and live hard.”  Rays-focused episode coming soonLike & subscribe to BaseballBiz On Deck.  You may also find BaseballBiz on Deck, on YouTube at iHeart Apple, Spotify, Amazon Music, & at www.baseballbizondeck.com Also you can find Mat at M-A-T-G-E-R-M-A-I-N dot B Sky social.

The final hour of Evan & Tiki is packed with New York sports chaos. Evan, Tiki, and Sean react to the Mets' stunning pivot to Bo Bichette after missing on Kyle Tucker and officially closing the door on Pete Alonso. Giants fans remain on John Harbaugh watch as contract details drag on, while the guys debate what his leadership would mean for Big Blue. The hour takes a sharp emotional turn with the Rangers' brutal Friday letter signaling a reset, sparking an all-time rant from Sean. Plus, Yankees offseason questions, AL East power rankings, NFL Divisional Round picks, and plenty of passionate fan calls to close out a wild Friday on WFAN.

The show comes to a screeching halt with legitimate breaking news as the Mets land Bo Bichette on a three-year, $126 million deal, and Evan immediately reminds everyone he called the pivot before it happened. Evan and Tiki react in real time to the signing, the massive AAV, the opt-out structure, and what this move says about how David Stearns is operating in the market. They break down where Bichette fits defensively, why third base appears to be the early plan, and how much offensive ground this actually recovers after losing Pete Alonso and Kyle Tucker. The guys debate the risk of one-year and two-year opt outs, the surprising draft pick cost, and whether this is a necessary concession in today's marketplace. Plus, what this move means for Philadelphia after reportedly agreeing to a long-term deal, how Toronto now pivots, why Cody Bellinger still does not make sense for the Mets, and whether this finally changes the tone of a chaotic Mets offseason. Live calls, instant reactions, and a full breakdown of how the roster and expectations shift after the biggest move yet.

Evan lays out why Cody Bellinger is simply not a realistic option for the Mets, even with the Yankees reportedly sitting around five years and $160 million. If the Mets refused to go long-term for Kyle Tucker or Pete Alonso, why would they suddenly cave to Scott Boras now? The discussion turns to what desperation would actually look like, why David Stearns and Steve Cohen are unlikely to abandon their principles, and why relying on the kids may be the real outcome if no clean pivot exists. The guys also agree that pitching should be the priority regardless, and explain why even missing on Tucker does not mean the Mets are about to hand out contracts they do not believe in.

The discussion opens with the moment Mets fans still argue about. Pete Alonso's defensive mistake that altered an entire season and still hangs over his departure. Now the reality is unavoidable. Pete Alonso is gone, and the New York Mets are moving in a completely new direction. That direction comes into focus with the addition of Bo Bichette, a bold pivot after missing out on Kyle Tucker. The guys break down why the Mets moved fast, how Bichette reshapes the lineup, and why this roster feels unfamiliar from top to bottom. The bullpen is just as different, with Edwin Díaz out and Devin Williams stepping into a high pressure closer role. From the lineup to the ninth inning, this is a new Mets identity, and everyone is about to find out if that change actually works.

The news Mets fans feared becomes reality as Kyle Tucker chooses the Los Angeles Dodgers over the New York Mets. Evan reacts with raw frustration, breaking down why this one hurts even though the Mets made a massive and legitimate offer. Tiki Barber explains why the Dodgers always win these battles, how their financial edge changes everything, and why no one should be surprised. The conversation turns from Tucker to the bigger picture as Evan questions the Mets' offseason direction, the failure to replace Pete Alonso, and what the real pivot is with spring training approaching. Is this anger really about Tucker, or about the position the Mets have put themselves in? Plus a Winston Churchill inspired rally cry, and a brewing conspiracy involving MLB and Rob Manfred. A must listen for Mets fans trying to figure out where this team goes next and whether there is still a path to contention.

The feelings of Alex Bregman still linger even after the Red Sox gave a big contract to Ranger Suarez. With the quick pivot from Craig Breslow, do we really think the Sox wanted to bring Bregman back or were they forced to? Then, Sean McAdam of MassLive joins the show to keep the conversation going and pour some cold water on Bo Bichette as the next step the Sox take in finding another bat for their lineup. And, from the list of trade candidates the Sox could acquire to fill that need, its a big drop off which brings everyone back to missing out on Pete Alonso.

The Mets offseason is at a tipping point, and Kyle Tucker is the one move that could change the entire mood. Evan and Tiki debate why Tucker would “save” the winter, why the Mets' only real edge is money, and how David Stearns' short-term, high-AAV philosophy is shaping everything after losing Pete Alonso. Then it turns into a wild New York sports morning: John Harbaugh meets with the Giants, fans call in on Tucker vs pitching help (Suarez, Valdez, Giolito), and the guys hit the Yankees' under-the-radar Ryan Weathers trade before circling back to the big question: who's the Mets ace right now? Chapters 00:00 Kyle Tucker “saves” the Mets offseason 03:20 Mets vs Dodgers vs Blue Jays and what actually matters 06:25 Trusting Stearns, roster “maybes,” and the first base frustration 14:00 Giants news: John Harbaugh meeting and the Tisch plane buzz 18:30 Calls: Tucker vs Suarez/Valdez, plus the rotation anxiety 35:15 Yankees add Ryan Weathers, then Giolito and the Mets “ace” debate

Mets fans are running out of patience, and it all comes down to one name. Evan and Tiki break down why signing Kyle Tucker would not make this a perfect offseason, but could absolutely save it. They dig into the bidding war with the Dodgers and Blue Jays, Steve Cohen's willingness to flex financially, and David Stearns' short term contract philosophy. Plus, why missing out on Tucker would leave the Mets banking on too many maybes, reopen the Pete Alonso wound, and make this offseason feel just as bleak as it did a month ago. Everything is on the line in the next 24 hours.

Evan and Tiki open the phones and Mets fans go straight to the big question: if you can only make one marquee move, is it Kyle Tucker or a top arm like Ranger Suárez or Framber Valdez? Evan argues Tucker's 162-game impact is bigger than any starter's, even while admitting the rotation still screams for certainty. The conversation rolls into David Stearns' short term, high AAV strategy, whether “connections” matter at all in free agency, and why the Dodgers are always lurking if money is close. Plus: the Pete Alonso fallout won't go away, the “is $50M worth it?” camps battle, the Yankees finally make an under the radar move with Ryan Weathers, and a caller throws Lucas Giolito into the mix as the show debates what actually qualifies as a Mets ace right now.

With Craig Carton off the air, Chris McMonigle takes over solo and delivers a passionate breakdown of the Mets' most aggressive move of the offseason. C-Mac reacts to reports that the Mets are willing to offer Kyle Tucker up to $50 million per year on a short-term deal, explaining why Tucker is the best free agent bat on the market and exactly what the Mets need after losing Pete Alonso.
