BT & Sal dissect David Stearns' recent comments on the Mets' offseason, debating whether the GM has the appetite—or the checkbook—to execute the massive overhaul the team needs. Sal outlines a fiery, aggressive ultimatum for Pete Alonso's agent, Scott Boras, proposing a "$180 million, take-it-or-leave-it" deal to prevent the slugger from holding up the entire offseason. The hosts agree that simply bringing back Alonso and Diaz and adding a single pitcher is "not enough," arguing that the team's core DNA must change. Tierney demands a minimum of two high-end starters plus a major position player acquisition (like Bellinger or Bregman) to make the offseason a success. They also clash over Alonso's value, with Sal focusing on his lack of production when the power isn't there, and Tierney arguing his home run numbers are irreplaceable in a lineup already lacking offensive threats.

BT & Sal demand Steve Cohen and David Stearns adopt an aggressive, take-charge approach to securing Pete Alonso this offseason. Tierney argues the Mets must "call his bluff" and make him their best offer now (suggesting six years, $200 million) to test how much he truly wants to be a Met, rather than letting Scott Boras drag the process into next year. Sal emphasizes that despite the homegrown narrative, Alonso deserves and will demand fair market value after his bounce-back season. The conversation also touches on the Yankees' pursuit of Paul Skenes, the controversial trend of massive deferred payments in contracts (like the Dodgers' deal with Ohtani), and the challenge for consumers to navigate the sea of conflicting reports from national baseball reporters.

Welcome back to Tablesetters, your home for deep-dive baseball conversation and analysis. Steve and Devin are here, and we're thrilled to welcome back Keith Raad, the play-by-play broadcaster for the New York Mets on WCBS 880, returning to the show for the first time since Episode 37. Keith works alongside Mets Hall of Famer Howie Rose, bringing fans every pitch, every rally, and every unforgettable moment of Mets baseball. You can follow Keith on X @keithraad and hear him live all season long on the Mets' broadcast. In this episode, we take a hard look at one of the most compelling—and confounding—teams in baseball. The 2025 Mets went from owning MLB's best record through mid-June to missing the postseason entirely, a collapse defined by bullpen fatigue, record-setting pitching turnover, and a clubhouse tested by adversity. Keith offers firsthand insight from the booth, breaking down what made the first-half magic so special, how Carlos Mendoza held the group together through the storm, and what lessons the team can carry forward into 2026. From there, we dig into the offseason storylines dominating Queens: the opt-outs of Pete Alonso and Edwin Díaz, what their market value truly looks like, and whether David Stearns can retain both without compromising the organization's flexibility. We explore the reported “culture reset” and the trade chatter around Jeff McNeil, assessing how the front office might reshape this roster's identity around its long-term superstar core. Then we turn to the rotation and a rumor with real traction: Tarik Skubal. The 2024 AL Cy Young winner has been linked to the Mets amid uncertainty over his future in Detroit, and Ken Rosenthal recently called New York “the obvious team” if the Tigers can't extend him. Keith breaks down how that potential pursuit could affect the Mets' 2026 plans and whether Stearns might resist handing out long-term deals this winter to keep the door open for Skubal next year. Of course, the conversation also highlights the organization's young foundation—Mark Vientos, Brett Baty, Ronny Mauricio, and arms like Brandon Sproat, Nolan McLean, and Jonah Tong—and what their continued growth could mean for a rotation in transition. Keith offers sharp in sight on Vientos' long-term potential, and how Soto's arrival has redefined the team's competitive identity. We close by revisiting a landmark moment in franchise history—the retirement of David Wright's No. 5—and hearing Keith's reflections on what that night symbolized for the organization and for a fanbase that still sees Wright as its moral compass. Finally, Keith shares what it means to be the voice behind a franchise now firmly entering the Juan Soto era, and what he hopes to deliver to Mets fans in 2026 and beyond. This is one episode you won't want to miss. Grab your headphones, settle in, and enjoy a conversation that captures the emotion, intelligence, and future of Mets baseball—right here on Tablesetters, where every inning tells a story and every pitch sets the stage for the game's greatest moments.

BT & Sal dive into the Giants' coaching crisis, arguing that keeping the Joe Shane-Brian Daboll tandem is an "abject failure" and the worst move they could make. The fiery debate shifts to why the Giants need to "do whatever they can to go get Belichick," despite the risks, and why his resume makes him a better gamble than anyone else. The conversation pivots to a messy start to the Mets' offseason, ranting about Frankie Montas opting into his $17 million contract while injured (a "stupid contract" by Stearns) and celebrating the decline of Drew Smith's option.

BT & Sal go off on the Mets' dysfunctional coaching culture after Andy Martino confirms Kai Correa was not Mendoza's hire, revealing a top-down, front-office driven staff selection that puts the manager on thin ice. They rip the analytical obsession, arguing Stearns' data-first approach and trade deadline failures are a bigger problem than Mendy's in-game decisions, especially as old-school scouting is minimized. The duo then pivots to the Yankees, anticipating a "feisty" Brian Cashman press conference and demanding a clear plan for Volpe after his regression. The show wraps with a hilarious take on a "catchy" new anti-Yankees song from north of the border and a deep dive into the 2027 MLB stoppage fears that could impact this offseason's spending.

BT and Sal dive into a fiery debate over the New York Mets' controversial hiring of an analytics-driven bench coach, Kai Correa, viewing it as a clear sign that Mets President David Stearns has placed manager Carlos Mendoza on a perilously short leash. The hosts argue that forcing an "arranged marriage" with an unfamiliar coach emasculates Mendoza and signals a flaw in the team's top-down, analytical philosophy. The discussion also turns to the Yankees, as shortstop Anthony Volpe undergoes shoulder surgery. BT and Sal express skepticism, questioning if the injury is an excuse for his first three years of offensive struggles and criticizing the organization's continued analytical overreach—highlighting a shared, frustrating trend across both New York ballclubs. The segment concludes with Speaker 1 (BT) recounting his hilarious, anxiety-ridden experience of an unexpectedly brutal late-night on a TV set, leaving him operating on minimal sleep.

Nancy Levine Stearns, founder of ImpactDevise, a nonprofit journalism project, discusses the corporate response to the DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) backlash. Stearns' project covers DEI initiatives in the private sector, and her reporting on corporate social responsibility has been cited by publications like The New York Times, NBC News, and Forbes. Stearns, a former executive recruiter, began focusing on the DEI space after the "heated" backlash following a recent election. She was initially intrigued by a story about Costco taking a public stance on DEI. This led her to discover that other companies were also standing firm on their commitments. Key Findings from Impactivize Corporate Commitment: Stearns and Impactivise track approximately 400 companies, including publicly traded, private, and large nonprofit organizations, that have made public commitments to DEI. A recent audit found that only two of these companies have completely removed their DEI statements. Stearns believes that a stated commitment is a bold and courageous decision, as it can make a company a target for anti-DEI groups. Shareholder Support: Stearns reports that in 2025, 30 anti-DEI proposals were put forth for shareholder voting at various corporations. Shareholders overwhelmingly rejected these proposals, typically by a margin of 98% to 99% of voting shares. Stearns notes that while shareholder rejection of outside proposals is common, the overwhelming margin of these votes is unusual. The Business Imperative: Stearns states that the primary reason companies are maintaining their DEI initiatives is because they recognize it as a "strategic imperative" and a "business imperative". She cites a statement from Rob Davis, the CEO of Merck, who called diversity and inclusion a strategic imperative. Stearns emphasizes that the data and metrics show that these initiatives positively impact a company's performance and bottom line. Shifting Language: Stearns acknowledges that some companies are changing the language they use to describe their initiatives, perhaps using terms like "belonging and inclusion" or "culture and engagement". However, she notes that adversarial groups, such as the Heritage Foundation, are aware of this change in terminology and still view these efforts as DEI. Consumer Influence: Stearns believes that consumers, particularly younger generations, are a powerful force in this movement. She suggests that consumers are "voting with their wallet" and supporting companies that have strong DEI commitments. This consumer support provides a "strength in numbers" for corporations, reinforcing their commitment. Stearns argues that while the media often focuses on the narrative that DEI is "dead," the data show that it is very much alive and supported by both corporations and consumers. She maintains that the business case for diversity and inclusion is a powerful and objective force, stating, "It's not political, it's not ideological, it's not personal, it's just, it's just business".

Sal and BT debated the intense pressure on Mets manager Carlos Mendoza, with Sal arguing that no New York baseball manager in recent memory—Yankees or Mets—has been under such critical scrutiny from the organization right out of the gate. He fears Mendoza is on a firing line that begins in April, not the postseason, a reality he believes is toxic and unfair. While acknowledging that Mendoza is a "good baseball guy" who was loose and successful in his first year, Sal suspects the raised expectations and pressure from the front office caused him to manage "by the book," ultimately impacting his effectiveness. The discussion centered on whether Stearns and the front office truly believe in Mendoza and if the manager will be given a fair chance to succeed given the club's high expectations.

On the latest episode of The Mets Pod presented by Tri-State Cadillac, Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo tie a bow on the 2025 season for the Mets, a season that ended in complete disappointment and failure. Connor and Joe recap all that went wrong that brought the Mets nowhere near their expectations, and sort the blame between president of baseball ops David Stearns, manager Carlos Mendoza, the coaching staff, and the players. The guys also look ahead to what needs to be fixed, plus ideas for how to do it, and react to comments Stearns made during his end-of-season news conference. As always, the show dives into the Mailbag to also give voice to the frustrated fans, who have their own questions about the way the Mets went down.

Joe Benigno ripped into David Stearns, trashed Cedric Mullins as a “stiff,” and even took shots at Sauce Gardner on the Jake Asman Show. WNBA player blasts refs and league office.

Boomer & Gio stayed upbeat about the Yanks despite Wild Card jitters, with Boomer harping on the little things like Judge's bad arm. Jerry's update featured a Yankees hype video jabbing the Mets, Bregman's RBI, and Joe Benigno ripping Stearns, Mullins, and Sauce. Jerry Jones was “up like Dracula,” and talk closed on Tyreek Hill maybe being happy to sit, cash checks, and eye a new team.

The show was wall-to-wall Yankees angst as the Bombers sit on the brink, Boone's bullpen moves under fire and the bats going dead when it mattered most. Boomer & Gio tried to pump optimism with lefties in the lineup and visions of a Bronx breakout, while Gio admitted it all feels like “here we go again.” Along the way we got Benigno raging at everyone from Stearns to Sauce, Jerry Jones rising “like Dracula,” a caller crowning Eddie the only true Mets fan, and Rex Ryan trading insults with Shedeur Sanders' mom. It all wrapped with Gio predicting a Yankees surge, Boomer wondering which Rodón shows up, and plenty of fumes—on and off the field.

BT and Sal ripped into the chaotic state of New York sports, starting with the Giants' bittersweet win where the excitement over Jaxson Dart's infectious energy and a great defensive performance was immediately devastated by Malik Nabers' ACL injury. Shifting to the Mets, Sal defended the team's effort, arguing they "tightened up" under pressure rather than simply not caring, while BT maintained the core group has been exposed as "mentally handcuffed." They both agreed that the Mets' failure this season stems from a lack of athleticism and poor roster construction, with Sal arguing that GM David Stearns must evolve his "bargain bin" philosophy despite a few flashes of good luck. The segment wrapped up with callers discussing the team's need for an ace pitcher and the overall failure of Stearns' many offseason moves.

Sal and BT furiously dissected the Mets' season-ending collapse, calling it one of the most embarrassing in franchise history after the team missed the playoffs despite a massive payroll. They hammered the team's core, with Sal arguing that the Mets should trade Francisco Lindor or Brandon Nimmo to reset the team dynamic since the current nucleus "did not work." BT agreed that the core needed to be "blown up," even if it means moving a star player like Lindor. The discussion culminated in the hilarious payoff of Sal's bet with Phillies fan Clem from Surfside, forcing Sal to don a Chase Utley Phillies uniform and BT to wear a Surfside can costume in a moment of ultimate Mets-Yankees-Phillies indignity.

In this segment, BT and Sal engage in a fiery debate over who is to blame for the Mets' recent struggles. While a caller points the finger at manager Carlos Mendoza for his quick bullpen hooks, Sal argues that the main culprit is General Manager David Stearns. He critiques Stearns' roster decisions, including the failure to address the rotation's fragility and the botched trade deadline acquisitions, exemplified by the Cedric Mullins trade and the decision not to give Drew Gilbert a shot. The discussion then shifts to the Yankees and the perplexing handling of Anthony Volpe's shoulder injury, with both hosts questioning the organization's lack of transparency and a culture that seems to hinder player accountability and performance. The conversation also includes a brief section on NFL Week 2 parlay picks.

C-Mac worries about Abdul Carter's hype, but Keith assures him the Giants made the right pick. Keith, a free agent fan, explains why he's done with the Cowboys and Jerry Jones, despite C-Mac's loyalty.
