Mike kicks off the show by reflecting on the Knicks' championship run and the lessons it offers for the Mets. What can baseball's struggling club learn from a team that found a way to break through? Mike discusses a realistic path toward a meaningful summer in Queens and examines the types of reinforcements David Stearns may need to pursue to keep the Mets relevant in the postseason race.
To close out the show, Mike reacts to a thought-provoking social media post from former major leaguer John Vander Wal, using it as a springboard for a broader conversation about the state of today's hitter and how the modern game has evolved at the plate.Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
