Suzyn Waldman Trolls Mets Fans as Subway Series Pressure Builds

Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber open with Suzyn Waldman’s surprising praise of Pete Alonso’s defense, debating whether she was giving fair analysis or taking a subtle shot at Mets fans who doubted him. That leads into a larger Mets conversation about poor challenge decisions, umpire frustration, Carlos Mendoza’s missed chance to fire up the team, and why this roster still feels difficult for fans to emotionally connect with. The guys also dig into the Yankees’ recent struggles ahead of the Subway Series, weighing whether a rough stretch is just normal baseball or the beginning of something more concerning. They discuss Max Fried as the biggest worry, the difference between a true road trip and playing across town, A.J. Ewing’s early opportunity with the Mets, and whether the Nets should be aggressive in trying to trade up for a potential franchise player in the NBA Draft.
