About this episode
A turbulent week filled with drama, emotion, and frustration is finally in the rearview mirror, and Mike Silva is here on the Talkin’ Mets Podcast to break it all down — and help Mets fans refocus on what comes next. Should anyone really be surprised that David Stearns is running the organization with a cold-blooded, calculated approach? The answer is no. The warning signs were there long before this week, including how Stearns handled a familiar face from the unforgettable “OMG” season — and no, it wasn’t Pete Alonso. So where do the Mets go from here? Mike examines the next phase of the Hot Stove, highlighting Cody Bellinger and Alex Bregman as key names to monitor on the free-agent market. He also discusses the possibility of reinforcements arriving from the Far East, as the front office continues to explore all avenues for roster upgrades. On the pitching side, Nick Pivetta fits Stearns’ apparent preference for acquiring arms “on the way up,” a strategy that could extend to bullpen construction as well. Mike sets the foundation for the rest of the offseason in Part One of this week’s edition of Talkin’ Mets. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
