Podcast appearances and mentions of Sean Manaea

Rodriguez, Keith, and Producer Joe are running the show tonight while Farace is out… getting his hair done. Yep, even bald guys need “me time,” and rumor has it he's spending three hours at the salon debating gel vs. mousse.Meanwhile, the Mets are feeling the heat—some of it good, most of it not so much. Juan Soto is on another planet right now: 10 home runs and 18 RBI in June and absolutely torching baseballs like he's got a personal vendetta. But outside of Soto and a few sparks, the offense has hit the snooze button lately, struggling to get anything going with runners in scoring position.On the mound, the pitching staff has had its ups and downs. Sean Manaea is temporarily shut down with an elbow issue after getting a cortisone shot, while Frankie Montas gave fans something to smile about with a sharp Mets debut—five scoreless innings and nine punchouts.The guys will break down the team's recent slide, what's been going wrong, and how the upcoming All-Star break could give this banged-up squad a much-needed reset. Is it just a midseason blip or something more concerning?Expect the usual chaos: Rodriguez throwing shade like it's his job, Keith defending his latest Lindor glove take, and Producer Joe randomly bringing up something that will derail the show.It's a rollercoaster season, but the ride's not over yet. Let's put it in the books.

BT and Sal delve into the latest baseball headlines, starting with Mets pitcher Sean Manaea's elbow injury. Manaea, nearing his return from an oblique strain, experienced discomfort, revealing "loose bodies" in his elbow, though doctors don't anticipate a major setback after a cortisone shot. The discussion then shifts to the fiery ejection of Yankees' Jazz Chisholm Jr. from a game against the Reds, where his prolonged argument with the umpire over a strike call led to him being tossed, prompting debate about his professionalism and the Yankees' struggles

The Mets are looking to pull off a split against the Braves and ahead of the final game of the series Carlos Mendoza sat down with Keith Raad to discuss the good feelings coming off of last night's victory and how they will try to sustain them along with giving an update on Mark Vientos and Sean Manaea.

The Yankees also lost to the Reds with Chase Burns' impressive MLB debut against them. Tonight is the NBA Draft, with two Rutgers players projected as top-five picks. Aaron Rodgers stated he plans to completely withdraw from the public eye upon retirement. The show also featured discussion on Defcon levels, Joe Benigno's fourth hole-in-one, and super tall intern Zach. Hour 4 Gio detailed Netflix's "Poop Cruise" documentary.

The Mets are finding new ways to lose every night. The Yankees can't seem to win a game when it gets to extra innings. Frankie Montas pitched really well, the Mets got off to a lead, and still lost. Sean Manaea has loose bodies in his elbow which does not sound good.

Amidst a heatwave, the Mets face a "Defcon 5" losing streak, despite a favorable pitching matchup. Joe Benigno scored his fourth hole-in-one.

Both the Yankees and Mets are hot, building excitement for potential September playoff pushes; the Yankees' post-Juan Soto additions are thriving, while Mets pitching is so strong a caller doesn't want Sean Manaea back from injury. Boomer expects the Braves to heat up but notes Phillies' injuries. In other news, Kyrie Irving defended Karl-Anthony Towns on Twitch, leading to a discussion about "code switching" and whether New Jersey is a "tiny" state. The Yankees beat the Royals with an Aaron Judge homer, and the Mets shut out the Nationals thanks to a David Peterson complete game and two Brandon Nimmo home runs, though Pete Alonso getting hit again angered Ron Darling.

Hour 1 The Mets and Yankees are on a roll, with David Peterson throwing a complete game for the Mets. Meanwhile, the Knicks' coaching search continues to flounder, with rejections from candidates like Jason Kidd and public criticism from Charles Barkley. Elsewhere, the U.S. Open starts today, the Pacers took a 2-1 series lead over the Thunder, and an anonymous player poll named Juan Soto the hitter pitchers least want to face in a World Series Game 7. Hour 2 Howard Stern believes sportscasters should normalize saying "penis" on air.

Evan and Tiki debated the Knicks' situation, while the Yankees beat the Royals with a 5-run inning and an Aaron Judge homer. Marcus Stroman made a rehab start, and the Mets shut out the Nationals thanks to two Brandon Nimmo home runs and a complete game from David Peterson, though Pete Alonso getting hit angered Ron Darling. Finally, Mike Tannenbaum predicted Aaron Rodgers would be irrelevant by Thanksgiving, and Rodgers recently got married privately.

Jerry's final update included the Pacers' 2-1 lead over the Thunder, the Yankees' victory over the Royals (5 runs in the second), and the Mets' shutout of the Nationals, featuring a David Peterson complete game and homers from Juan Soto and Brandon Nimmo. Joe Flacco found it hard to believe adults use TikTok. The "Moment of The Day" was a funny caller interaction with Jerry, and Boomer is out tomorrow for a Maryland quarterback event.

The Yankees and Mets are both on a roll and it's going to get to a fever pitch if they are both making playoff runs in September. Everyone is getting activated and awake. The players the Yankees got after losing Juan Soto have worked out great so far. A caller loves how the Mets pitching staff is going so much, he doesn't want Sean Manaea to come back from injury.

Hour 1 The New York sports scene saw mixed results, with the Mets and Yankees both suffering losses. Jazz Chisholm's hitless night followed his public spat, while Francisco Lindor's defensive errors plagued the Mets. Conversely, the Knicks defeated the struggling Sixers, prompting optimism despite Gio's assessment of their "bored" regular season play. Kodai Senga's strong pitching was a bright spot for the Mets, though Sean Manaea's setback was noted. Elsewhere, the Dodgers maintained their undefeated streak against the winless Braves.

Jerry's sports update covered the Yankees' grand slam loss, the Mets' defeat marred by Lindor's errors, and Nathan Eovaldi's rare complete game. NFL news featured Jed York's strategy for keeping Brock Purdy and Jerry Jones's confident approach to contract negotiations. The hour concluded with a bizarre story of a man arrested for leaving his young children at McDonald's during a job interview, which sparked online debate and an offer of help from Antonio Brown. Hour 3 Boomer questioned RJ Luis's transfer portal move from St. John's, expressing a shift in loyalty towards coaches amidst player mobility.

The show concluded with Gio's hydration debate and Boomer's cleanse, with Gio considering Phil Mickelson's health supplements.

Lindor felt bad after the game. Carlos Mendoza told us about the setback for Sean Manaea. The Dodgers beat the Braves, so the Dodgers remain undefeated and the Braves remain winless. Roger Goodell talked about the tush push and the risk involved.

Spring Training rolls on, and so does *The Put it in the Books Show*! This week, the full crew is back together as Rodriguez makes his triumphant return from the IL—though he insists he was just "day-to-day." Join Farace, Keith, and Producer Joe (still lurking behind the wall) as they break down the latest Mets news with the usual mix of dry humor, analysis, and a little well-earned skepticism. First up: injuries. Sean Manaea is progressing after his oblique injury, while Jeff McNeil is hurt again—something Rodriguez blames on too much golf. The big question: does this injury cost McNeil his job? With Brett Baty now set to platoon with Luisangel Acuña at second base, the Mets may be looking at a future without their scrappy contact hitter. On the mound, David Peterson continues to step up, making a strong case for himself in the rotation. Meanwhile, the Mets have named Clay Holmes their Opening Day starter, a move that could be brilliant or a complete wildcard. With Tylor Megill and Paul Blackburn looking to solidify roles as well, the Mets' pitching depth is getting its first real test. And let's talk culture. Is this the best team culture the Mets have ever had? With stars, depth, and a front office that actually knows what it's doing, the guys will debate whether this is truly a new era in Queens or if we're all just drinking the Spring Training Kool-Aid. Tune in as the crew dissects the latest Mets developments, welcomes Rodriguez back into the fold, and gets ready for Opening Day. The countdown is on—let's put it in the books!
