Jesse Spector joined the show to chat about the New York Mets and the upcoming series with the White Sox. Could Chrystal have answered all of these questions, considering her dual fandom? Yeah. But what is the fun in that?

Here is what they talked about:

• What’s new with the Mets?
• Hot April, cold May
• Juan Soto has had a slow start, and Pete Alonso has been streaky at best
• Will the Rockies lose 122?
• Grading the offseason
• Thoughts on how the season will go for the Mets
• Anything other than going to at least the NLCS will be boring
• Adrian Houser was so bad with the Mets
• Pitching matchups
• Chrystal is a Tylor Megill apologist
• The biggest threat to the White Sox
• Keys to winning the series
• Fears heading into the series
• Around the league: Red Sox City Connects, the Orioles, ranking ballparks, Dugout of History podcast

You can find Jesse on Bluesky and look for Casual Diehard, especially Dugout of History, wherever you listen to podcasts.
