Mets'd Up

The Mets supremacy over the Arizona Diamondbacks continued this week with a commanding series victory at Citi. The offense came out hot with Ronny Mauricio hitting his first career home run and Brandon Nimmo continuing his hot second half. The pitching delivered too with Joey Lucchesi hurling a gem and Kodai Senga genuinely looking like a Cy Young Candidate.

The Mets lost two out of three against the Twins in Minnesota, but there were some positives to take from this series. David Peterson and Tylor Megill each took another step forward while DJ Stewart stayed scalding hot at the plate. Then, we look ahead to this week's Diamondback series and offer a football analogy for the Mets as the NFL started this weekend.

Quick two-game set for the Mets in DC. Tuesday night was one of their best offensive outputs of the season with Francisco Álvarez, Bretty Baty, Ronny Mauricio, and Mark Vientos together for the first time in a major league lineup. Francisco Lindor, Pete Alonso, and Brandon Nimmo (two times) each hit homers too while José Quintana delivered another great start. José Butto looked very good as well on Wednesday in his return to the rotation. Then, we close the episode with Esti-Met and a preview on this weekend's Twins series.   To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

Very fun series for our Mets this weekend against the Mariners.

Where were you when DJ Stewart had his moment? We recap a hectic Wednesday night from DJ's home runs, to a wall crashing catch, to Citi Field chanting his name, and finally his walk-off HBP. All on the day we interviewed him (not a coincidence). Then we cover the rest of the Rangers series including Max Scherzer's return and an encouraging start from Tylor Megill. Lastly, Esti-Met, a preview of the Mariners series, and a soggy bet between James and Jon.

The Angels visited us this weekend and that brought Shohei Ohtani to Queens. The thrill was somewhat dampened by the news of his injury Thursday, but it was still incredible to watch him live. We talk about the vibe in the ballpark watching him as well as Kodai Senga's continued brilliance, David Peterson's turnaround, and Francisco Lindor extending his hit streak. Pete Alonso was also hit by another pitch and James had some stuff to say about Mike Trout. Then Esti-Met and a preview of this week's Rangers series.

We react to the series with the Braves and some of the drama that went down in Atlanta. DJ Stewart had another strong series, Francisco Lindor stayed hot, and there was some usual drama. Then, we briefly discuss the NL MVP race between Ronald Acuña and Mookie Betts before doing a quick brief on some our minor league pitchers including a pitch-mix adjustment from José Butto this week. We close with Esti-Met and a preview of this weekend's series against the Angels.

It feels so good to beat the Cardinals and we did it three times this weekend! Kodai Senga and José Quintana dealt, Pete Alonso's power surge continued, Jeff McNeil stayed hot, and Francisco Lindor continued to be one of the best players in baseball. There was also a very funny moment in this series where Pete accidentally threw the ball from Masyn Winn's first hit into the stands. He apologized and got Winn a very nice gift, but the internet had a lot to say and we talked about it. Then Esti-Met, a preview of the Braves series, and a look at Mike Vasil's recent success in AAA.
