Break up the Mets. After being dead in the water, there's new life in Queens. Mike Francesa reacts to the Mets' Subway Series sweep and its onslaught on Yankees pitching.

Yes, the Yanks have to figure out what their next trade deadline move will be. They cann't have 3-4 players with good performance and the rest under avg. They have to be better if they want to be WS contender. But, Cashman has to be very analytical when approaching negotiations with other teams....
Why? I agree with much of what he says, but he doesn’t say “why”. Why should Randle go? Explain. Why is Bridges the “perfect fit?” Explain, substantively.
Thank you !!! It’s all about gimmicks with these so called radio personalities. That goes for all shows , Michael Kay, arcan and tiki and the rest of them !!!
The stats show that Randle was more efficient offensively with Hartenstein playing instead of Mitch. The Knicks were 12-2 with Randle and OG playing together. It was a seamless fit from the beginning. I don’t know why you would say that Randle should go.
Stop already with the Mets are no joke. The Yankees were the best team in baseball, and hit the skids. The a Mets were bad , and now hit a great run. Both teams aren’t as bad or how good . The only scary thing is the Yankees history is the same no hitting in the clutch. They only have the first three batters , after that automatic outs.
Mike’s replacement have big shoes to fill. I like John Jastremski as a young good talk show host, to be that guy. I’m not sending Mike to the grave, I wish long life for him.
0:34 don’t make excuses for the Yankees. The Mets won they kicked their teeth and are the Yankees are better organization. Sure they got their teeth kicked in just own it.
Mike is still simply the best ! The most articulate voice in sports radio! His rants on underperforming, and dysfunctional NY teams are very cathartic!
Mike wants Julius Randle gone a bit too badly. Randle was fine with this being Brunson's team as early as the end of season 1, and definitely this past season. Randle with OG and the rest in the lineup looked damn near special, and they will even more so with Bridges now. Randle is with CAA and has been all over NY lately. He's inexpensive right now, he's super productive, he's staying and it's a good thing.
Yea, I don't get the obsession with getting rid of Randle. He's an all-star/all-NBA level player who was averaging 24 and 9 before he got hurt last year. The team was almost unbeaten with Brunson, Randle, and OG all playing.
I think Randle adds size and power to the Knicks. I don't see OG and Bridges bringing that to the table. It is an added dimension that other teams have to contend with. Mike should just let Thibs worry about Randall's fit, minutes and the team's playing style.
The Mets are 17-6 since Jorge Lopez tossed his glove into the stands. Mike, you said it was going to get worse. What was your first clue? Some things never change...
Listening to a pro like Mike, versus loud mouthed clowns, brings me back to the days of memorable sports talk radio as the backdrop of every afternoon. Thank you!!
I gotta say as a Mets fan as pleasing as that was , I really expected the “rivalry” aspect to show up and the latest trends to disappear but really just the opposite happened
The Yanks stunk up the place. Besides the top 3 of Volpe - Soto - Judge they have nothing. They look like a team that's crawling to the finish line. They have nothing to show for with Boone since 2018.
I dig listening to this dude yap about sports, but he makes me laugh a lot, lol…..a couple days ago when Orioles smacked up the Yanks, he was like “don’t worry”…now he’s sounding the alarm….lol
Here is what people overlook with Randle: the trio of Randle, OG and Brunson were 11-1 before Julius got hurt....11-1!!! They also beat some damn good teams in that span! Even if you hate Randle and dismiss that he is a 3x All Star and averaged 24/9/5, you cannot ignore 11-1 and be so quick to move on from him. Randle CAN play with this group. Now, if by some chance they don't work, THEN you look at a blockbuster trade.
Yankess have major lineup issues at 3B, 2B, C, 1B and now it seems LF. Their starting pitching suddenly looks weak and relief pitching with Met rejects Bickford and Tonkin says it all.
Thibs has killed his own team countless times by not caring about minutes….see last years team for example…EVERYONE got hurt. He has zero titles. Keep burying your head in the sand on that point.
Very happy the Mets opened a can of whoop ass against the Yanks. Knicks, wow, great addition in Bridges. Yes, they can use one more scorer. Who is a free agent that would be that guy?
I love Mike too and there's no one like him today, he is the last of a dying breed! But let's be honest he wrote the Mets eulogy a few weeks ago and said they would be irrelevant all year.
Gil has to pitch with better strategy against good teams. His fastball has noticeable life. He can’t afford to walk hitters, he’s better off challenging these hitters strategically.
@@samsochet7436 If you played team sports at a competitive level and had success doing it then you’d understand. He doesn’t inspire a winning attitude. It’s also self evident look at all the talent he’s had at his disposal since 2018 and not one World Series appearance no other manager/coach has done less with more than aaron boone in all of sports.
Stick to baseball - Mike knows nothing about hoops.Adding OG unlocked the best version of Randell.With both in the lineup, the knicks were fantastic. Randell creates when he plays team ball, and he was playing unselfish for the whole month with OG before he went down. and the way he was playing before his injury he was making everyone on the team better, and he is a great rebounder.
If Randle was in the playoffs they would have at worst taken Boston to a game 6 or 7. This idea that Boston is head and shoulders above the Knicks makes no sense to me
@@Grande79Well Boston has been in the conference finals and finals several times since 2018 and the Knicks ??? In accomplishments they are head and shoulders above NY
@@Grande79 it's very relevant because Boston has been a threat since 2018 and Knicks have been in nowheresville . Boston has had recent accomplishments. Knicks have been irrelevant for decades
Wait..wut?? "Boston is going to be vulnerable. We know that". Really Mike? You know that? The team who just dominated the entire NBA with a core group of two-way stars in their late 20's? Those guys? I love Mike, but the blind Celtics hatred is tiresome, ponderous, and just lazy.
All you need to know about the state of Men's College Basketball is to watch last night's NBA Draft..... You couldn't pick those kids out of a line-up. Guys from France. Yeh the UCONN kids. And the big guy from Purdue. But there was a time when the 1st Round of the NBA Draft were household names. Huge stars of College Basketball that every team coveted. No really big star last night. More Wings than a Hooters. Women's College Basketball with Caitlin Clark did better in the ratings than Men's basketball. South Carolina v Iowa drew 17 million viewers. 6 million more than the NBA Finals games.... With Lebron in his final moments maybe a Great NY Knicks team will save the NBA..
Yankees, like the Mets, need young, new blood. It's how you build a champion (Brewers, Orioles, Reds, Rays, Mariners ....). Stop buying old free agents looking for one last big payday. Volpe has carried this team and starting to get burnt out. DJ has historically been over-used. Judge will follow Stanton on the IL soon, as will Soto. It's all about youth.
Pitchers need to put judge on his ass or worse. Imagine if Alonso had close to 30 home runs? Pitchers would be aiming at his head every other at bat, and Alonso would already be on the DL
METS PITCHERS GOT LUCKY THEY WERE TERRIBLE THEY NEED A ACE PITCHER, ONE OF THE PITCHER WAS AIMING THE BALL, I KNOW THE METS ARE PAYING FOR OTHER TEAMS ACE PITCHERS, BUT THEY NEED ONE THEMSELVE
Enjoy your little 2 game sweep what's it really mean in grand scheme of things. Yankees will be cruising to October. Mets barely at 500. Or under and golfing. I don't put much credence into these two games.
The Yanks are spiraling, Cashman has better earn his keep, although many of these issues are not his problem. But Stanton does what he ALWAYS does which is be hurt, Rizzo & LaMehieu look WASHED, and Torres skills are lost in space. Let's not even talk about all these NO NAME relivers who are going to be problematic moving forward. The Yanks have serious issues.......
How are many of the yanks issues not his problem?! He is the one who builds an incomplete line up every year , he is the one who keeps replacing hurt players with garbage and dfas from other teams . He is the one who build a team with terrible bench players . He is the damned GM . How is he not responsible for this
My Red Sox aren't going anywheres this season. Whenever that happens, I always root for my second favorite team. My second favorite team is anyone but the yankees. Go whoever plays the yankees!
Look at the standings bro , they currently are tied for the past wc spot . I never said they would make the playoffs for sure , just dont count them out yet . And this is coming from a yankees fan
I'm not sure if I should be political on this channel but I'm going to and it's ok if anyone disagrees with me. Having Cashman as a GM and Boone as a manager for the Yankees is equally as bad as having Joe Biden as a president! None of those guys should be qualified at their respective jobs and shows they can't do their jobs! The Yankees are falling apart under Boone and Cashman and America is falling apart under Biden! Boone and Cashman need to FIRED from this team just like Biden needs to be FIRED as president! It's a disgusting world we live in right now we can't have anyone good to run the Yankees or this country!

The Godfather of sports talk.
Mets have Pride 😅
So happy we get to hear Mike more often. Most of the time his opinion is straight on. These other hosts should take a lesson.
Breath of fresh air listening to Mike. Someone with knowledge not just saying nonsense to get people to call in.
Thank you !!! It’s all about gimmicks with these so called radio personalities. That goes for all shows , Michael Kay, arcan and tiki and the rest of them !!!
Oh, stop. Mike stopped following sports years ago. He makes mistakes all the time.
Like Pete Hoffman on Saturday nights! He said the Mets should trade Alonso to the Yankees! Insanity!!
Thanks Mike. Great podcast!

Mike do a current state of the country/politics/election podcast!!
Haha he calls Cole Cone LOL
Mike is still king
The Villanova men changed that culture. RJ did a good job when he was here.
Does OKC or San Antonio have salary cap space to take Julius?
As a lifelong diehard Mets Fan.
Judge is hands down the scariest hitter on the planet, he's so good right now I wouldn't pitch to him period.
If I was him, I would have signed with San Francisco to be close to family
Look like late 90s Mets
They're not getting rid of Randle!!

Julius kind of reminds me of Willis.
Knicks need scorers Mike!
Big A’s closer Miller is the right man.
I don't watch the NBA much anymore, but 14 and 4 is worth a max deal in this league now?
Nobody cared about an abominable NBA postseason and Finals and now we’re going in-depth on the 2024-2025 Knicks? Absolute waste of time.
And the Mets are doing this with a struggling Pete Alonso and Jeff McNeil , no Marte JUST IMAGINE😢

This is typical with the Yankees in the Hal/Cashman era.... They're not winning any World Series this year.
I knew that before the season started
Nothing like old Mikey Francesa talking NY sports. Nobody does it better.

Yankees are clearly a playoff team with an early exit. If you disagree with me, you clearly have not watched the Yankees in the Boone era

I see more of the Chicago Bulls comparison, because of the Bulls length lead by Mike and Scottie including Horace and D.Rodman.
Saying Randle doesn’t fit is such utter nonsense. Everything about his game fits the rest of the team perfectly.
Mike Yankees are 52 and 30. Mets are barely at 500.come back to us. Mike thinking this fugazi Met streaks is real is comical like the shoe wont drop.
