Co-Host: The Mets Pod @SNYtv. I also write about prospects and the MLB Draft. My opinions are mine and they’re usually pretty good

Something I like about Andy Green, and you can tell it’s something he learned in player development He’s quick to compliment the young players, but he’s just as quick to point out what can take them to the next level It’s always about improving and growing as a player
Andy Green says Carson Benge can further improve his strength this offseason: "When he looks at his offseason, he's got strength he's got to add to this frame. When he does that, I think a lot of the balls that end up on the warning track just get hit harder."

The Mets have officially added Derek Falvey to their front office. His role will be "Senior Advisor, Baseball Operations." From the team: "Falvey will report directly to David Stearns and serve as a trusted voice across a wide range of Baseball Operations decisions."
The Mets are expected to add former Twins president of baseball and business operations Derek Falvey to their front office, per @WillSammon Falvey, who worked with David Stearns together in Cleveland from 2011-2012, oversaw the Twins' roster building from 2017-2026 and is expected to hold a "significant role" in the Mets' decision-making process, per Sammon

This was an excellent watch A glimpse into the year-long process that leads up to each MLB Draft
Thousands of miles traveled. Hundreds of games scouted. It all comes down to Draft Day. This is Searching for Tomorrow: an all-access documentary following our scouts leading up to the 2026 MLB Draft. 🎥👉 bit.ly/Searching4TMRW

Nolan McLean’s excellent rookie season is complete: 31 GS, 3.16 ERA in 179.2 IP with 194 K’s The last rookie pitcher to have 30+ starts, a 3.16 ERA or lower and 194+ strikeouts: Dwight Gooden in 1984 (yes Gooden did a lot better)

This is a CRAZY thing to say The Blue Jays owe Vlad $459,735,714 over the next 13 years
Vladimir Guerrero Jr. opens up on his slump year: “They didn’t pay me to hit 40 every year. They paid me for what I already did.” I want people to understand one thing. The money they gave me wasn’t for what I’m going to do. It was for what I already did. They didn’t pay me because I’m going to hit 40 every year. They paid me for what I already accomplished. People are confused about that, but I think the same way they do. Like, sometimes I even say to myself: bro, they gave you all that money and you’re out here doing nothing. I try. You know how it is with fans, when you’re good, they’re with you 100%. But when you smell like shit, like we like to say here, nobody supports you. The ones who support you are the ones who stay with you. Those are my fans. My family. Via VeronicabatistaTv/IG

Strong season off of Tommy John for Scott Was excellent early, hit a bit of a wall and broke through it at the end Got to 123 innings pitched and I think you can pencil him in to the 3/4 spot in the 2027 rotation
Christian Scott's final 2026 stats: 🔸 23 GS 🔸 110.0 IP 🔸 3.85 ERA 🔸 1.27 WHIP 🔸 134 K 🔸 3.61 FIP 🔸 2.1 fWAR

I think when you can add a former PoBO to the executive group that has multiple playoff appearances and a 101 win season on his resume, that’s a good idea Comes from a different background from Stearns too, so it’s a different perspective which was needed IMO

But I understand that right now the fans don’t trust anything the Mets do They have to win to earn back that trust, simply put With that being said, I consider Falvey to be a good addition @scohodson1

Taking calls during the broadcast?? Crazy lol
In honor of Andy Green being named the Mets’ full-time manager, here’s his only hit as a Met, a single up the middle in the eighth inning of a 15-2 blowout by the Braves in 2009. The booth was allowing people to call in during the game at this point

This in some ways sounds like Terry Collins who learned from his stints with the Angels and Astros where he had a similar attitude. He evolved and did a great job with the Mets
Interesting to hear Green say he learned from managing with a know-it-all style in failed stint with Padres 10 years ago, when he talked tough to players and led w/ his chin. Says he's learned to challenge players in a more productive, positive way and as such is a better leader.

I will be interested to hear what he has to say What is evident is he has had a huge impact on the players in a short time He had them showing up to play their asses off in what has been called a “meaningless” season That’s a leader of men. Time will tell how it works out
Replying to @PSLToFlushing
Do you think the players talked him in to staying on as manager?
