In the much-anticipated return of The Put it in the Books Show, your favorite quartet of Mets aficionados - Farace, Rodriguez, Keith, and the ever-elusive Producer Joe (who we're pretty sure exists, as noises do occasionally emanate from behind the wall) - dive headfirst into the swirling vortex of pre-season predictions, armed only with their wits, a questionable crystal ball, and an unwavering devotion to the New York Mets. Episode One of Season 7 kicks off with the ceremonial unveiling of the Mets' final roster for Opening Day, a moment so charged with anticipation that even Producer Joe might lean into the mic (no promises, though). Our hosts will painstakingly dissect each selection, combining hard-hitting analysis with the kind of dry humor that suggests they've been hit in the head by too many foul balls. From there, the crew will venture into the treacherous waters of MLB predictions for 2024. Expect division winners to be crowned with the certainty of someone guessing the number of gumballs in a jar, World Series winners to be declared with the confidence of a weatherman forecasting next month's weather, and award winners to be announced with the precision of a dart thrown at a board... in the dark. Will Farace's predictions finally break his streak of being spectacularly wrong? Can Rodriguez predict something other than "Mets win everything"? Will Keith manage to stay on topic for more than five minutes? And will Producer Joe make a sound, confirming his corporeal form? Tune in to the Season 7 premiere of The Put it in the Books Show for all this and more, including special segments like "Guess That Injury" and "Where in the World is Yoenis Cespedes?" It's going to be a season opener filled with more hopes, dreams, and dry wit than a Mets fan's diary. Remember, in the world of baseball predictions, the only guarantee is that we'll all be wildly, hilariously wrong together. Let's get it started - put it in the books! #PiitB #Mets

Welcome back to “The Put it in the Books Show” Spring Training Special #5! The gang's all here - Farace with his ever-optimistic Mets forecasts, Rodriguez, who's been known to snooze when Producer Joe gets too technical, Lares with his stats that feel like spoilers, and of course, Producer Joe, the man who's inadvertently turned the mute button into a running gag. This episode, we're diving headfirst into the crystal ball for the 2024 season, delivering our boldest predictions for the Mets' individual players. Will Senga's fastball outspeed the 7 train again? Can Alonso hit more homers than there are pizza joints in Queens? We’re laying it all out, folks! As we dissect the upcoming season, keep an ear out for Producer Joe’s “technical difficulties” – they're so infamous, even Rodriguez’s snoring can’t drown them out. Will Joe finally master the soundboard, or will his fumbling be the sleeper hit of the episode? Either way, it’s sure to add an extra layer of entertainment! So, grab your favorite Mets cap, a snack (maybe something quieter than chips, for Rodriguez's sake), and settle in for an episode filled with laughter, wild predictions, and maybe a nap or two. It’s the “The Put it in the Books Show,” where Mets magic and mishaps meet! #PiitB #Mets

Welcome back to "The Put it in the Books Show," the ultimate Mets podcast that's more loaded with insights than the Mets bullpen is with fastballs! Here we are at '24 Spring Training Episode #4, where we mix up the Mets magic with a pinch of humor and a sprinkle of our signature dry wit. First up, we're tackling the MLB Network's latest top 10 list. Which Mets made the cut at each position? We'll analyze, scrutinize, and maybe even fantasize about our players climbing the ranks. Then, dive into the swirling rumors of the Mets potentially snagging JD Martinez. Is it a home run move or just another swing and a miss in the rumor mill? We’ll dissect the chatter and see if JD could be the missing piece or just another "what if." Our Mets pitchers are looking like aces in Spring Training, but the big question looms: Can they carry this firepower into the regular season? We're breaking down whether they can keep the heat or if we're just enjoying the calm before the storm. Starling Marte's future is on the agenda, too. Will he be stealing bases or is it time to steal away to new opportunities? We’ve got theories, and not all of them involve baseball! Sending out a heartfelt shoutout to Darryl Strawberry – the Mets legend is in our thoughts after his recent heart attack. Here's to a speedy recovery, Straw! And oh, the hot topic: Does MLB have a free agency problem? We're peeling back the layers on this one, debating if the system's a hit or if it’s striking out with players and fans alike. Of course, we can't proceed without poking a bit of fun at Producer Joe, our very own master of the soundboard... when he remembers how it works, that is. Will he hit the right buttons today, or are we in for another episode of "Guess That Unintended Sound Effect"? So, grab your headphones, a hot dog, and maybe a scorecard to track how many times Joe accidentally mutes himself, and join Farace, Rodriguez, Lares, and the ever-unpredictable Producer Joe for an episode filled with laughs, insights, and all things Mets. "The Put it in the Books Show" is where Mets fans come to enjoy the highs, lows, and everything in between – no mute button required! #PiitB #Mets
