My wife and I are trying to pick out what kind of floor we want to put down in our kitchen. I have no trouble with the decision but my wife does. Different floor type, colors and patterns can turn into a very long process that at times I will a
Well if you are a professional athlete consistency is truly the hallmark of greatness. If you are a baseball fan you know that a player can fail almost 70% of the time and still make it to the hall of fame. Over the course of the last 3 weeks w
If you are a Met’s fan you read things all over facebook and twitter about how this team is falling apart, and about those that are looking for heads to roll.You also here about how Steve Cohen has set the team apart with this enormous payroll
Billy Eppler GM of The Mets commented this week that he has confidence in the roster that The Mets are fielding right now. And you know what if everyone was doing their job I would feel confident as well. I mean the roster is just about the sam
Well, I actually know what's going on; no pitching. After the first game of the doubleheader against The Braves (we lost 9-8) I think that was obvious. But, on the brighter side reinforcements are on the way, Scherzer and Verlander so hopefully
Don't know about you but I thought David Cone gave an excellent objective opinion on ESPN Sunday night about Scherzer and his ejection for sticky fingers. As Cone said you really can't regulate a legal substance and if rosin was all that Scherz
If you want to compare the Mets and the Athletics the A's are the worst. Sadly it's because Moneyball just went too far. This was a playoff team a few years ago and not they have stripped the team down to bare bones. Oh don't get me wrong I am
Ryan and I discussed the pitching and hitting on this episode of NY Mets 101. My thoughts Bassett would have been a welcome addition to this pitching staff. I know he choked in Atlanta but he was a workhorse for us and I don't think was ever on
Well today was an interesting episode of The NY Mets 101. Ryan went to The Marlins series (lucky duck) of which he did an excellent job of critiquing the pitch clock and the stadium. I am still upset at Tyler McGill, even though he won the game
In this episode of New York Mets 101 Ryan and I discussed rosters for the Braves and the Mets (using 2022) rosters and stats. We only critiques the potential starting 9. We also discussed the decision to send down Baty and Vientos. They both ha
Ryan and I spoke about a lot of things during this episode of NJ Mets 101. Much of which will keep fans involved and allowed us to voice our thoughts and opinions. In terms of the WBC and the injury effect, I am not so concerned about the injur
I was raised over a bar and I don't think one day passed during the summer when all the guys just seemed to be talking about the game either that day or that night. It didn't matter what team they rooted for they just loved talking baseball. Th
Well welcome back or should I say will you welcome us back. My name is Jim Burns and this is The New York Mets 101. Today’s podcast episode is designed to get our feet wet and to take stock of this 2023 Amazin team. Today I am introducing Ryan
Often when a team wins a championship some players just seem to do the unexpected or maybe just play over their head. Sometimes we pick up pieces at the trade deadline or claim a player off waivers. The 1969 and the 1986 Mets were very much lik
At 65 I can't help but think back to what I call the good old days; the days of single admission doubleheaders and general admission seating at times for as low as $1.25. The food was cheap, the players were friendly, and at times when you were
Carlos Beltran may have been the best centerfielder in Mets history. He routinely played between 140 and 160 games per season. He was a five tool player. He gets remembered for getting called out on strikes in the last game of the 2006 champion
It's almost incomprehensible that a team would sell controlling interest of their baseball team and expect to have decision making power and control going forward. How long do you wait for the owner of a house to move out after you purchased it
Kids today spend more time watching baseball and playing video games then they do playing the game. Oh, many kids are in leagues and play organized sport but how much time do kids spend outside playing without adult supervision. Baseball is one
In my last podcast I stated that The Mets don't draft, trade, sign, or hire well. A short 40 second sound bite was posted on facebook which seemed to draw the ire of some Mets fans. In this episode I explain what happens when a team continues t
Well, Beltran is gone. So who is next up? Brodie Van Wagenen is the one responsible for whoever the next Met manager is going to be. He claims the sign stealing scandal never cam up in the Beltran interview, Why not? This scandal has been brewi
Brodie Vanwagenen doesn't like to deal in ifs. In other words if everyone performs up to snuff The Mets should have a great season and make the playoffs. Well we have a lot of ifs. The bullpen for one, the outfield, and who will back up Wilson
It seems like Mets fans are always kept in the dark when it comes down to the dealings of ownership. We heard about Steve Cohen and his negotiations with the Wilpons to gain a controlling interest in the club last week. We don't know much more
Between Cano, Cespedes, Familia, and Lowrie the Mets have $70 million dollars on the books. These players have either broken down or are not performing up to their potential. Add David Wright's $20 million + salary on to that and you have $90 m
Historically The Mets have either traded blue chip prospects or other players who were in or approaching their prime: Tom Seaver, Amos Otis, and Nolan Ryan to name a few. They also have gotten into the bad habit of playing people out of positio
When I was playing the game of baseball I didn’t think about what I was learning in the process, I was just there to have fun. But, in reality every step I took during the game brought me to another life lesson that I could learn from. Baseball
