Blocking the Plate
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.

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

976-1313
Official scorekeeper Howie Karpin joins the program to discuss his latest book, "976-1313: How Sports Phone Launched New Careers and Broke New Ground.” One of the reasons we are able to do “Talkin’ Mets” today is the work of Howie and other pioneers in the sports media business back in the late 1970s.

Mark Vientos was the hero on Sunday, but between that and his at-bat against Cardinals closer Ryan Helsley on Saturday made for an impressive weekend. Mike Silva discusses his latest “Beyond the Mic” article on Vientos and adds the possibility that Vientos might be more than trade fodder this July.

Customer Reviews
Must listen for every Mets fan
My favorite Mets podcast …highly recommended
Good perspective
As you say I enjoy the show or I’d stop listening but MAN, the commercials have quintupled or more and the $ begging along with that… even without paying I feel like it’s a pay-to-listen show now… thankful for the 30 second advance button
Announcers
Love the show, the variety, the attitude. I was slightly disappointed that the announcer discussion didn’t name check Bob Uecker. Even during his career as a TV clown, he was a great radio voice — and never stopped doing it
