Episode Notes
New York Mets spiral with eight-game skid—can they turn it around in Chicago, or do they need to what until Juan Soto's return off the IL.
Host Ryan Finkelstein breaks down what’s gone wrong for the Mets’ lineup, highlighting Soto’s injury impact, Jorge Polanco’s struggles, and why Francisco Lindor and Bo Bichette must lead the charge.
The conversation zeroes in on key roster decisions, from Ronny Mauricio’s potential opportunity at DH if Polanco goes on the IL, to pressing issues with Mark Vientos and Brett Baty’s bats.
Pitching matchups take center stage as the Mets look to snap their streak against the surging Cubs at Wrigley Field.
Key factors include Kodai Senga anchoring the rotation, the importance of Devin Williams and Luke Weaver stabilizing the bullpen, and whether the Mets’ upcoming favorable schedule can propel them back to .500.
How will Mets veterans respond to mounting pressure, and is this stretch make-or-break for their playoff hopes?
