Depth on Display

Championships aren’t just built on stars — they’re built on the margins. After the first week of spring training games, Mike Silva looks at how David Stearns may already be giving the Mets a subtle but meaningful edge. Mike breaks down the early performances from several under-the-radar arms who are turning heads in Port St. Lucie and explains why pitching depth could quietly shape the 2026 season. He also dives into the growing buzz around A.J. Ewing — is there a real path to a summer outfield controversy if the young prospect keeps pushing? Plus, could a six-man rotation actually make sense for this roster? Joining the show live from Port St. Lucie is prospect insider Ernie Dove of the “New York Mets Dove Report,” sharing firsthand observations on the coaching staff, player development, standout prospects, and the overall vibe around camp. Spring training may only be getting started — but the margins are already in play. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Breaking Up is Hard to Do

The first weekend of Spring Training games gave us the usual box scores filled with has-beens and long shots — but the real story wasn’t on the back fields. It was Steve Cohen’s comments about not supporting a team captain… and the far more revealing nugget about the front office that flew under the radar. On this episode of Talkin’ Mets, Mike breaks down why the minor league backfields may be the most important real estate in the organization — especially as a looming labor agreement could restrict big-market teams from flexing their financial muscle in free agency. If importing stars becomes harder, development becomes everything. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Aligning the Stars

Mike Silva opens the official start of baseball season with a special Talkin’ Mets Pitchers & Catchers State of the Union. Before diving into position battles, breakout prospects, and the players to watch this spring, he brings the focus back to the core of the roster — Juan Soto and Francisco Lindor. Will Soto’s transition to left field elevate his all-around game? And more importantly, does Lindor’s recent hamate injury signal the first hints of a late-prime decline? Mike sets the stage for spring with the big questions that will shape the Mets’ year ahead. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Don't Extend Freddy Peralta

Warm up your winter morning with the newest episode of the Talkin’ Mets Podcast. Mike breaks down why he’d hold off on extending Freddy Peralta and instead let him reach free agency. He also takes a deep dive into new Mets pitching coach Justin Willard’s background and philosophy, then shifts to thoughts on the World Baseball Classic, his lukewarm feelings on Jacob deGrom’s Mets career, and whether David Stearns still has another move left in them — all wrapped up with answers to the latest mailbag questions.

Did the Mets Land Their Ace?

David Stearns struck again late into the night, acquiring Freddy Peralta and Tobias Myers from Milwaukee in a blockbuster deal that sent Brandon Sproat and Jett Williams the other way. Did the Mets overpay by moving two top-five prospects for what could be a rental? Can Peralta be locked up long-term? And is he truly the frontline arm his reputation suggests? Mike Silva breaks it all down on another special edition of the Talkin’ Mets podcast. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
