BDB 2025 Season Review Series Episode #12 - The New York Mets (w/ George Westaway!)

Описание: A dozen 2025 Season Review episodes have now been completed, with this one seeing us reviewing New York's favourite team - the New York Mets!

Gaz is joined on this one by fellow brit - George Westaway!

The Mets had a season of 2 halves in 2025 - eventually finishing 2nd in the NL East with a record of 83-79!

After signing Juan Soto to a record contract in the 2025 off-season, big things were expected from them this past season, and boy oh boy did they start well!

The Mets started out with a 45-24 record and looked a lock for both the NL East and maybe more, but a combination of injuries, untimely slumps and no Grimace result in a 38-55 record the rest of the way.

For all the money he was paid, Soto more than lived up to his end of the bargain as he led the team with 43 HRs. He was supported by Pete Alonso and Francisco Lindor, with even Brandon Nimmo putting up a career year offensively!

However the pitchers did not want to commit to this level for the duration of the season, with David Peterson and Clay Holmes struggling in the second half, Frankie Montas and Sean Manaea plagued by injuries and Kodai Senga being moved down to Triple-A!

The Mets have made a lot of noise in the 2026 off-season, trading for Marcus Semien, signing Bo Bichette and Devin Williams, but also losing Edwin Diaz and Pete Alonso!

So what does 2026 have in store for Stevey Cohen and the boys?

Joining Gaz on this episode is fellow Brit - George Westaway!

So have a listen as we review the Mets' 2025 season and discuss what 2026 may have in hold for New York's most loveable baseball team - Happy Listening!
