HOW YA FEELING METS FANS??? The past two weeks have alternated between thrilling and crushing as the roller coaster ride of the 2024 season continued. In fact, as the season dwindled to a close, that roller coaster sped up, spun around some, and the brakes failed. It all led up to yesterday's unprecedented doubleheader and my GOODNESS what an endin…

The Mets have a chance to accomplish something that should have been impossible. By going 17-7 since our last episode, the Amazin's are in the 3rd Wild Card spot in the NL but may have their sights on a larger prize. Tonight is the first of 7 games in 10 days against division-leading Philadelphia who currently sit 8 games ahead of the Mets in the s…

Hey Baseball Fans, we are back to talk about a Mets team that finds itself in a Playoff chase. The wild swings of earlier in the season seem to be behind this team as we have seen much more consistent baseball of late. That doesn't make anything less wild though as we are deep in the midst of a Wild Card race. After a grueling 10-game/4-city/3-time…

It's been a while since we really checked in on the Yankees and we bring our old friend Duanny B back to talk all things pinstripes. This...would have been a very different episode a month ago. While the Bronx Bombers have had a fantastic first half, the cracks are quickly beginning to show and it has our Yankees experts tearing his hair out. Are t…

Sooo we missed a lot on our break. I took off on a plane to Europe and apparently missed a lot. Talk about best of times/worst of times! The Mets were "the worst f'in team in the whole MLB" and then Grimace blessed the team with instant greatness and now I just don't know what to think. What is this team? We try our best to catch you up over the la…

Welp this has not been a good week for the Mets by any stretch of the imagination. Playing against two divisional rivals, the squad was barely able to avoid sweeps in each series. Pitching hasn't been great, Edwin Diaz has been struggling, but it's the offense that has been just awful. It's another streak in a season full of them leaving us to wond…

May rolls in with another week of highs and lows for the Mets. We break down the split against the Cubs starting with the controversial Pete Alonso play at home, then move on to the dreadful performance against the Rays before talking about a promising pair of games against the Cardinals. Christian Scott's debut, the continued resurgence of Francis…

The Nephews are back to break down this week in Mets land. It's been more bad than good, however with some very exciting highlights including the debut of J.D. Martinez and a pair of brilliant and sorely needed starting pitching performances. We discuss what this rotation may look like in the near future as Tylor Megill, David Peterson, and Kodai S…

We've been looking forward to this episode for a long time as Mets legend Dwight Gooden was good enough to take some time for an interview with us after a very busy week. At the end of a lengthy meet and greet at Murphy's Bar in Astoria, Dr. K was gracious enough to hang around a little longer for a pair of knuckleheads with a microphone. It also h…

April is a weird baseball month. Last week the Mets looked like a 70 win team, now they look dangerous! We break down the squad taking the first series against the vaunted Braves including a game that could be remembered as a season defining win. From there we recap the Royals and look forward to the Pirates and Dodgers series. We're only a few day…

The Mets have stumbled out of the gate, then stepped on a rake, and then stepped in dog doo. It was an abysmal start to the year for the squad, but there are some bright spots and maybe even some signs of life. We break down the struggles as well as the silver linings including a nice first turn through the rotation and nice performances from Brett…

After a long hiatus The Nephews are finally back to preview the 2024 Mets squad! It's been a long time since we joined you but we are back just in time.

That's a wrap on the division series and here come the fight for the pennants! Sweet Baby J and I bring you analysis of all the happenings of the 5 game sets including surprising sweeps, big time dingers, and a team and fan base that is almost too soft to believe. We also preview next week in baseball as the chase for the World Series is down to 4 …

We're back in the saddle again bringing you some October Baseball analysis! 4 sweeps in the Wild Card series were a bit disappointing but they set up some bomb looking series in the Divisional round. Sweet Baby J and I break it all down for you as well as touching on another Mets GM scandal. We just cannot stay out of the news. But the focus here i…

From there we dive into the Wild Card r…

We are back and it's a full house on this episode! We start by explaining the reason that the Mets are tanking, move on to talk about just how bad it is in the Bronx, and then we finally turn our attention to the teams that are actually winning games this year. We break down the playoff contenders by tier and tell you who we think is for real, who …

There was a ton that went down during last week's trade deadline. Good teams adding, bad teams selling, the Yankees not doing anything, and the Mets just absolutely tanking. It took us a couple of days to get our emotions in check to talk reasonably and even longer to edit our marathon recap session but it is finally here! We start with the Mets of…

Hey baseball fans, it's trade season! The Nephews are back to cover all of your trade deadline questions. From buyers to sellers, big deals and small there is sure to be a lot of action in the coming days. As for the Mets, we last told you they needed to go 12-3 or 13-2 coming out of the break and...they haven't. Sometimes it's better to accept tha…

It's stretch time for the baseball season and we break down the state of the league starting with our Mets. Spoiler alert: it's going to be an uphill climb. The Mets did have an exciting week and a 6 game winning streak, but lost the disappointment-bowl to the Padres and, well, one of us is already out. How many games are they allowed to lose befor…

We are officially through the halfway point of the season and it is just not looking great for either New York club. We have been quoting Yogi Berra and saying "it's getting late early" for a while now, well it's late. Is there hope on the horizon? We chop up what is left in this Mets season. We also welcome Duanny B back on the show for the first …

What a difference a week makes...actually jk lmao there isn't much of a difference. The Mets are still bad. Errors on the field and the basepaths, unacceptable starting pitching from supposed aces, and inconsistent offense have brought this team to a 33-38 record as we are only 10 games away from the midpoint of the season. When will it end? In fac…

Hey baseball fans, the Nephews are back after a long absence to tell you this: The Mets absolutely stink right now. We break down what is going on with this dumpster fire, who needs to stay and who needs to go, and what we expect going forward. We are also happy to announce that we are now members of the Shea Hello Media team! We are one of many Me…

The Mets embarked on a long west coast trip and have righted the ship in many ways. The Nephews are here to recap the Oakland sweep and Dodgers series as well as react to the Max Scherzer ejection. Or maybe we should call it the Phil Cuzzi ejection. So dumb. So while there is much more good news than bad, there are still roadbumps in this early sea…

Baseball is back and so are The Nephews. We go over the first two weeks of Mets baseball and give our outlook on the upcoming road trip.

We were recording last night and as we were espousing how awesome the WBC has been, our hearts were ripped from our chests as Edwin Diaz crumpled to the ground. Come for the tournament coverage, stay for the brutality that is Mets fandom. Head over to our Instagram @nephewspod for a quick look it up and enjoy the episode you sickos.…

Hey Baseball Fans! The Nephews are back with you and this episode, it's all about the Mets. The roster has taken shape and while most of the personnel decisions are easy enough to suss out, there are still some bullpen and bench calls to make. Will the kids make the roster? Who will round out this bullpen? Keep in mind, we recorded this on Sunday n…

Ooooh baby it is BASEBALL TIME!! With the season just over a month away, The Nephews are here to break down the biggest set of rule changes in baseball history.

It's that time of year again for us Nephews to act like we're important. The 2023 class of the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown will be revealed Tuesday night the 24th so Sweet Baby J, Duanny B, and myself drew up our own ballots to get you ready. It took us three years, but we all finally agreed on a player for Hall of Fame induction! I absolu…

Oh boy did Uncle Stevie really try and make this New Year a special one when he swept in and stole Carlos Correa from under the Giants' tree. Or did he? And should he? As of this publishing, Carlos Correa is still not officially a Met and we Nephews just have no idea what to think. We break down the possibility of Correa as well as our trepidation …

Uncle Stevie DGAF about your luxury tax! So much to go over since we last joined you. We saw the end of the deGrom era, Steve Cohen wasting no time replacing Jake with Justin Verlander, and Brandon Nimmo signing on to be a Met for life.

The time has come for the Mets to unleash the two-headed monster of Jacob deGrom and Max Scherzer and it would finally happen in earnest in the biggest series of the year.

We go over the last week in baseball for our beloved New York clubs and revisit our preseason predictions for each team around the league. Check out our Instagram @nephewspod to see our full pred…

Ugh. Sound off if you also hate the friggin Astros. They're so good and it's so annoying. But even though they took games off of each of the NY teams this week, baseball is still looking good in NYC. As the All-Star break looms, so does the return of at least one Mets ace. The Yankees still have a ridiculous record-pacing win-loss record and we don…

The Mets did plenty of good this week, but a bad series in Houston may have uncovered some flaws.

Hey Baseball Fans! The Mets finished up their grueling road trip against the Angels and finally came home to Queens to face the Brewers.
