  • What's Wrong with the Mets?
    Aug 12 2025

    Fred Zinkie asks "What's Wrong with the Mets?" He and Jeff Erickson discuss five struggling offenses since the All-Star Break.

    ---

    00:00 Fred Pod 8-12-25

    00:20 Welcome

    01:00 Main Topic - What’s wrong with these teams?

    01:47 These five teams have all ranked among the bottom-10 in OPS, runs scored and wRC+. Should we bench some of their hitters, because we don’t have time to wait for them to turn things around? And should we stream pitchers against them?

    03:15 Mets

    08:30 Rays

    13:25 Cardinals

    19:15 Nationals

    23:30 Rangers

    26:45 Chalkboard

    27:45 News. Plenty of it today.

    28:00 Jose Hader is getting tests done on his shoulder. Uh oh.

    30:30 Cristian Javier earned a win in his return. Is he ready to join fantasy lineups?

    32:10 Shane McClanahan is done for the season, proving once again that injury optimism is not your friend. Grayson Rodriguez also underwent elbow surgery.

    33:10 Cole Ragans threw a bullpen session. He’s sitting on waivers in some leagues and could be back in early September. Worth a stash?

    35:45 Chase Burns is facing an innings limit and the Reds are getting two starters back. Drop him?

    38:50 Devin Williams pitched the sixth inning and is an easy drop. I’m interested to see if he gets a closer’s job in free agency.

    41:00 Corbin Carroll set a career high in homers last night. He has really shifted his fantasy profile and may not steal 20 bases this year. He still has 98th percentile sprint speed.

    43:20 The Tigers just won’t let us have a closer. Kyle Finnegan earned the win and Will Vest picked up the save.

    44:30 Will Warren picked up a win. Take out a couple disasters, and he has been excellent this summer.

    46:20 Kyle Schwarber homered. He’s second in HR and RBI. Sixth in runs. Has 10 steals. Will only be 32 next year. Why can’t he be a first round pick?

They also hit much more across baseball, including Josh Naylor's SB binge, Lawrence Butler's struggles and whether Kyle Schwarber can steal the NL MVP from Shohei Ohtani.

  • Post-Deadline Reactions, Pitchers Since June 1
    Aug 6 2025

    Fred Zinkie and Jeff Erickson share more trade deadline reactions, break down the latest news and discuss the top and bottom 10 starting pitchers since June 1.

    ---

    00:00 Post-Deadline Moves

    00:20 Welcome

    01:00 Fred’s Trade Deadline Reactions

    03:00 Closer Headliners following the deadline

    07:15 News & Notes

    07:20 Aaron Judge is back….. Nothing is going right for the Yankees, including Max Fried, who now has a 5.81 ERA and a 1.52 WHIP since July 1…..And Devin Williams blew another save….

    12:30 Nick Lodolo, to IL……

    15:00 Austin Riley and Tommy Edman

    19:00 Nathan Lukes survived the trade deadline as the Jays leadoff hitter and reached base five times yesterday.

    20:40 Michael Soroka is already on the IL…..Ben Brown relieved Soroka and pitched well, so it’s likely time to add him and then get burned by him…..

    23:00 Roman Anthony is day-to-day. He’s playing great but isn’t doing much in fantasy…..

    26:00 NFFC

    26:45 Let’s look at some of the best and worst pitchers in recent weeks. Because some of the best ones aren’t getting much credit and some of the worst ones are still in lineups.

    27:45 Here are the ERA leaders since June 1.

    28:15 Matthew Boyd 1.69

    31:10 Christopher Sanchez 1.71
