Episode Notes

New York Mets face their toughest test yet, heading to Los Angeles to battle the powerhouse Dodgers amid offensive woes and urgent roster changes.  

Tommy Pham is activated and Ronny Mauricio heads back to Triple-A, as Mark Vientos, Brett Baty, and Francisco Alvarez vie for impact roles. Can Pham bring the spark New York desperately needs with matchups looming against Justin Wrobleski, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, and Shohei Ohtani?

Host Ryan Finkelstein breaks down the massive gap between the Mets’ struggling lineup and the Dodgers’ red-hot offense, featuring Shohei Ohtani, Freddie Freeman, and Teoscar Hernandez.

Key storylines include David Peterson’s shot at redemption, possible pitching shakeups with Clay Holmes’ injury, and Edwin Diaz’s emotional reunion facing his old team.  

Will Francisco Lindor and Bo Bichette shake their early-season slumps or are the Mets doomed for a long April? Don’t miss this comprehensive series preview and analysis.
