Would Lindor for Harper Fix the Mets’ Mess?

Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber break down another brutal Mets loss and ask whether this team’s problems go even deeper than David Stearns’ failed offseason. Evan argues that even bringing back familiar faces like Pete Alonso and Brandon Nimmo may not have saved the Mets, because the pitching, player development and young core have all collapsed at once.

The conversation turns to the Mets’ bleak outlook, their uncertain future compared to Evan’s other favorite teams, and a stunning hypothetical trade with the Phillies. With both teams struggling, Evan and Tiki debate whether Francisco Lindor for Bryce Harper could ever make baseball sense, why both contracts make the idea at least worth discussing, and why the players themselves might ultimately shut it down.
