The Good Fundies Podcast Presents: ‘A Watched Cold Stove Never Boils’
Brian and Roger spent some time for once talking about another chilly hot stove as a Mets fan, that Shohei Ohtani fella, and everything else.
Available on iTunes obviously. Ditto Soundcloud, Stitcher, Google Play, TuneIn, Player.fm, and Podbay.fm. Here’s the RSS feed.
Roger and Brian chatted about Shohei Ohtani spurning the Mets despite their multimedia presentation (17:30), the Mets continuing to not spend money (19:55), Ubaldo Jimenez (27:25), Carlos Santana (35:30), how getting Ian Kinsler would be such a Mets move (39:05), why the Mets wouldn’t just try to be in on Giancarlo Stanton (44:10), their feelings on Carlos Beltran not getting the Yankees managerial job (47:35), Terry Collins’ new nickname (49:10), Jordany Valdespin’s weird tweet (50:00), Matt Harvey getting tendered a contract (51:00), their preference for who will martyr themselves as the new Mets Santa (54:20), Brandon Nimmo and when in a player’s career umps start giving them close calls (57:00), a possible Jay Bruce return (01:01:50), Bryan Shaw (01:03:20), Dominic Smith and the folly of minor league defensive scouting (01:05:50), and if Dan Warthen was truly to blame for not using technology (01:13:40).
Of course that isn’t it because in the mailbag segment the Good Fundies boys guessed on which Met would be most into Black Friday and Cyber Monday (01:08:50), if Matt Adams should be considered as a Dom Smith stopgap (01:23:20), if a baby should experience their first Mets Opening Day with SNY or WOR (01:25:05), if Shohei Ohtani will have a higher WAR as a pitcher or position player (01:32:45), how devastated they are over not getting Aaron Boone to manage (01:35:00), and if they would trade Robert Gsellman for Whit Merrifield and his 80s actor name (01:38:50).
