Basic Thoughtonomics


Mar 25, 2020

For this episode I'm joined by Anthony Dicomo who covers the Mets for MLB.com and Mets.com. I ask him his thoughts on COVID-19 and the impact it has had on the game from a baseball, sociological perspective. We also talk and speculate when games will resume, how many games are needed to have a legit season, I ask him about the mindset of a player during this time as well. Then we transition to some Mets talk. I ask about the Noah Syndergaard Tommy John surgery (16:15) and how everything went down. We then talk the Tommy John epidemic that has taken a stranglehold in the game. We talk the legacy of the Mets big 5 starters (Harvey, deGrom, Wheeler, Matz, Syndergaard) and how we will look back on them with all the potential they had. To finish I ask him about his thoughts on Luis Rojas as manager and the outlook for the team this year (if there is a season)
