Core Crossroads
After a week where Edwin Diaz blew three saves and the Mets lost 2 of 3 to the lowly Marlins, Mike Silva questions whether it’s time to move on from the 2022 core and start fresh.
Hear his thoughts on Pete Alonso, Edwin Diaz, Francisco Lindor, and Brandon Nimmo. Just like a bad relationship that isn’t working, perhaps it’s time to go separate ways to make life better for both parties.

Brandon Nimmo’s walk-off against the Braves salvaged a lost weekend at Citi Field, where there appeared to be a vast gap between the NL East contenders and the Mets.
With Memorial Day just around the corner and the Wild Card race shaping up to be more competitive than initially thought, should the discussion about dealing Pete Alonso start to take shape?
Hear Mike discuss Joel Sherman’s report on Alonso’s contract negotiations, the current Mets offensive state with and without Alonso, and how difficult David Stearns's decision is coming at the trade deadline.

MLB has been messing with the rules and trying to legislate everything for the last decade. The ambiguity creates problems, and we saw that this year with the McNeil-Hoskins incident and now with Alonso and the blocking the plate scenario on Wednesday. Mike explains why this is an example of how overreaction to one play and fear of social media outcry makes things worse.

Warning Signs Become Reality
May is here, and we can finally start to see who this 2024 Mets team is. Are they the sub-.500 bunch that seems not to hit when they get good pitching and not pitch when they hit? Why aren’t they better despite an elite bullpen and decent starting pitching results? The warning signs from the West Coast trip seem to have become a reality. This team is frustrating, and Mike will tell you why
