11 in a Row and Counting: Is This Mets Team Already Dead?

11 in a Row and Counting: Is This Mets Team Already Dead?

Eleven losses in a row. Fifteen on the season. And Phil-O, EL G., and Joey — Dev's internet had other plans — have officially activated the "It's Definitely Not All Good Bro" segment, and they are not holding back. Phil-O opens with a bit that lands too close to home: the New York Mets need a drug commercial-style warning before every broadcast — may cause loss of sleep, elevated blood pressure, and destroyed evenings. The guys break down why this 2026 Mets collapse feels identical to last year, why the post-game interviews sound like everyone's reading from the same script, and why Carlos Mendoza might want to update his LinkedIn. Joey draws a brutal comparison to the 1962 Mets and asks the question nobody wants to answer: did this team lose its soul the day Buck Showalter walked out the door? EL G. scans the MLB standings and tries to find the silver lining. Phil-O keeps it simple — heads need to roll, and Steve Cohen needs to stop giving everyone a pass. Is there any good news? Well, six games out of the wild card with 140 left is the closest we got. They might still turn this around. Emphasis on might. Fair warning: PG-13 language ahead. The Mets earned every word.

New York Mets 2026 Season Crisis: Mendoza, Stearns, and the Soto Problem

Juan Soto has a family suite, $765 million, and apparently the keys to the entire franchise — and the Mets still can't score a run. EL G., Phil-O, Joey and Dev break down what's actually going wrong in Flushing: Is Soto calling the shots? Was letting Alonso walk the move that broke this lineup? And is Carlos Mendoza already on borrowed time? Dev's been sounding the alarm since the offseason, Joey's officially in Mets hibernation, Phil's hanging on by a thread, and EL G. is doing his best to keep the faith — even after 20-plus scoreless innings. The debate gets real: send Benge back down, bring up Christian Scott, and whatever you do, don't rush Tong. If you're a Mets fan who's been staring at the standings and questioning your life choices, this one's for you. Note: language gets colorful in this one. It's all good, bro — but maybe not one for the office speakers.

Did Analytics Ruin Baseball? The Mets, the Death of the Glove Man, and Apollo Reed's Bold Championship Prediction

This one gets philosophical. The bros go deep on how analytics quietly changed the way the game is played — and whether the Mets are better or worse for it. What happened to the true defensive specialist? Where did players like Keith Hernandez and Ozzie Smith go in a world that only values launch angles? It's a real conversation and it gets real heated. Plus: Apollo Reed, host of Guard Up Knicks, stops by with his boldest prediction of the year — a Knicks championship and a Mets World Series in the same season. The bros have thoughts.
