Social Media, Analytics and Life on the NYR Beat with Vince Mercogliano

The Rangers came out of the All-Star break with two solid wins against lowly Detroit, but couldn't keep it rolling against Dallas. Despite a mediocre record, there are legitimate reasons for optimism for Rangers fans, as the team has been playing much better over the last couple of months. The crew breaks it all down, and then Rob and Becky chat with the first ever guest on the podcast, NYR beat reporter Vince Mercogliano. Vince dives deep into the current state of the team and covers some hot button issues, such as which players are active on social media (looking at you, Tony DeAngelo), how the organization uses analytics, and what the Rangers will do before the February 24 trade deadline.Make sure to give Vince a follow on Twitter (@VZMercogliano) and read his work at lohud.com.Blueseatblogs.com is your always-on home for the Rangers, from news and opinion to video analysis and more.
