Episode Notes

The final stretch of the season is here, and New York baseball is telling two very different stories. In Episode 18, we break down the Mets’ continued inconsistency, their struggles to put wins together, and why the division race is slipping away. Meanwhile, the Yankees are scrapping to stay alive in the AL East battle, showing just enough fight to keep their hopes alive.
We dig into the biggest turning points of the past two weeks, who’s trending up and down, and what both clubs need to lock in before October arrives. Plus, as always, some spirited back-and-forth on which New York team fans should feel better about heading into the home stretch.
