The Put it in the Books Show - A New York Mets Podcast

The Mets sold off half the pitching staff, started winning immediately, swept Cleveland, then got to Atlanta and remembered they are still the 2026 Mets. Fun little vacation from reality while it lasted. This week on The Put it in the Books Show, Farace, Rodriguez, and Producer Joe break down where the Mets actually stand now: 53-69, buried in the Wild Card picture, and basically playing the rest...

The New York Mets traded away pitching at the deadline, reshaped the bullpen, and kept the offense mostly intact… and then immediately swept the Cleveland Guardians. Because of course they did. On this week’s episode of The Put it in the Books Show, Farace, Rodriguez, and Producer Joe break down the post-MLB trade deadline Mets and what this new era of Mets baseball actually looks like. With the p...

Carlos Beltrán is officially a Hall of Famer, which is great news for Mets fans who wanted to remember a time when superstar talent was allowed to stay in Queens without being swapped for three red-sticker clearance-rack prospects and a bullpen arm named Chad. This week on The Put it in the Books Show, Farace, Rodriguez, and Producer Joe break down Beltrán’s Hall of Fame moment, the Mets’ future m...

The Mets won a series. Alert the authorities. This week on The Put it in the Books Show, Farace, Rodriguez, and Producer Joe break down the Mets finally taking 2 of 3 from the Royals, which would feel a lot better if the season wasn’t already sitting in the corner wearing a neck brace. The .500 by the All-Star break goal is officially cooked, burned, buried, and probably traded to the Cubs for cas...

Happy Bobby Bonilla Day, Mets fans. Because of course the annual Bobby Bo check arrives right as the 2026 Mets fully turn into a circus with cleats. This week on The Put it in the Books Show – S9 E11, Farace, Rodriguez, and Producer Joe break down a Mets team that has gone from “consistently inconsistent” to “somebody please grab a helmet.”Carlos Mendoza is out after the Mets dropped to 34-47 and...

The Mets returned home to Citi Field and immediately got smacked around by the Cardinals, because apparently feeling decent about this team for more than 48 hours is illegal. They did manage to salvage the finale this afternoon with a 5-4 win, so congratulations, everybody — the parade route has been downgraded from “season is over” to “still annoying, but technically breathing.”This week on The P...

The Mets have won 5 of their last 7 games heading into San Diego, which means things are either starting to turn around… or this team is once again setting us up like a bunch of idiots with cable packages and emotional damage. This week on The Put it in the Books Show – S9 E9, Farace, Rodriguez, and Producer Joe break down a Mets team that continues to be the most confusing thing in New York sport...

Well look at this. The Mets are actually playing competent baseball again. After the disaster movie that was April, the Mets have gone 8-4 in May, averaging 4.75 runs per game while allowing just 3.33 runs per game — a massive turnaround from April’s painful 2.81 runs scored and 4.46 runs allowed per game. Amazing what happens when the offense remembers its job description and the pitching staff s...

For about five minutes, it actually felt like the Mets were putting things together. Three straight wins. Four wins in five games. The offense waking up. The starters finally pitching deeper into games. Actual signs of life. And then Craig Kimbrell came jogging out of the bullpen like it was 2017.The Mets were one inning away from getting back to 4 wins in 5 games before Kimbrell decided to turn C...
