Matt Blackham | Mets AAA Pitcher The Designated Sitter

Matt Blackham of the New York Mets AAA Syracuse Mets joins us to talk about the arduous journey to the highest levels of professional baseball. Matt is a kind, giving person who has always looked to lift those around him. His career has had its ups and downs from working up to AAA through several levels of Minor League Baseball, and injury downtime he shows the true resilience it takes to work to a professional career in baseball. He has played with legends such as Tim Tebow, Pete Alonso, pitched against Bo Bichette and keeps missing the chance to pitch against Vlad Jr, but looks forward to the time he gets to face him across the diamond.

We are joined by a new Designated Sitter, Cole Godrey, who played with Matt Blackham in High School.
