Mets Rising Apple Report, Ep. 139: Improbable run to a Wild Card berth
The Mets and Giants will play in the Wild Card game Wednesday night
As we celebrate what most of us thought couldn’t occur at so many points throughout the 2016 season for the Mets, we here at Rising Apple are also celebrating a move to the SND Podcast Channel on Soundcloud!
Leaving behind Blog Talk Radio, (and a big thank you to them for hosting us for so long), the139th but inaugural Soundcloud edition of the Rising Apple Report brought site co-editor Danny Abriano, writers Rich Sparago, Mike Lecolant, J.T. Teran, and first time podcast guest Darren Martino to the table with myself, Sam Maxwell, hosting the piping hot couple hours of Mets talk!
The last time we were on a podcast, the Mets were a 62-62 team. Well, they performed the unimaginable by going on an incredible hot streak and have fought to play at least one more game. We recap how we got here, preview the game, and discuss what the Mets need to do to push on through.
How should the boys from Flushing put together their 25-man Wild Card game roster? Should we be worried about the in-game maneuvers of Terry Collins? Who has been the biggest surprise for the team down the stretch? How awesome has Asdrubal Cabrera — the Assman — been?
And as is tradition, we discussed the National League New York legacy of 1939, as well as the players to wear number 39 in Mets history (such as Benny Agbayani and Doug Sisk), on the 139th, and inaugural SND Podcast Channel edition of the Rising Apple Report!
