Talkin' Mets

Mike Silva opens the official start of baseball season with a special Talkin’ Mets Pitchers & Catchers State of the Union. Before diving into position battles, breakout prospects, and the players to watch this spring, he brings the focus back to the core of the roster — Juan Soto and Francisco Lindor. Will Soto’s transition to left field elevate his all-around game? And more importantly, does Lindor’s recent hamate injury signal the first hints of a late-prime decline? Mike sets the stage for spring with the big questions that will shape the Mets’ year ahead.

David Stearns struck again late into the night, acquiring Freddy Peralta and Tobias Myers from Milwaukee in a blockbuster deal that sent Brandon Sproat and Jett Williams the other way. Did the Mets overpay by moving two top-five prospects for what could be a rental? Can Peralta be locked up long-term? And is he truly the frontline arm his reputation suggests? Mike Silva breaks it all down on another special edition of the Talkin’ Mets podcast.
