The New York Mets are in their first official rut of the season as they were swept by the Tampa Bay Rays over the weekend at Citi Field. While it's not time to panic, it is time to act. Joining the show this week to fill in for LeeJay is a new dummy, Will's good friend Erik! Erik believe the Mets shouldn't wait until the trade deadline to make moves, especially after the blockbuster trade Sunday between the Boston Red Sox and San Francisco Giants.
With Erik on the show this week as another Giants fan, him and Will get into it about the team as minicamp starts this week. How soon will Jaxson Dart start? Is the defense really that improved?
This week's halftime topic is unique to Erik. He lives in the Atlanta area now, so what's the biggest differences between fandom down South and NYC?
On the other side of the break, Erik and Will get into the latest saga about the Knicks' head coach search; a recap of a panel about student athletes at a conference Erik attended last week; and the current state of sports card collecting.
Of course with having two big pro wrestling fans on the show this week, the Mt. Rushmore is the most underrated Intercontinental Champions in WWF/WWE history.
