The Band - The Last Waltz

Flushing is Burning: There are still reasons to watch the Mets Aug 09, 2023

Show notes

After an eventful sell-off, the Mets do not seem motivated to continue competing. But Grace and Christian spend a lot of time figuring out reasons to continue watching, even if a last-place finish in the division remains a reality.

They also say goodbye to Mark Canha and reflect on his time in New York and his impact on MLB clubhouses. New York's loss is Milwaukee's gain, and they'll always remember the big, beautiful ally fondly.

Lastly, they examine what the heck is going on with New York's other baseball team, and Grace finally convinces Christian to watch a movie. And it's even on Peacock!

This week, we begin by discussing the remaining trades that happened since we recorded last week: the Justin Verlander trade, the Tommy Pham trade, and the shuffling of bullpen arms. We talk about Starling Marte’s injury and Brett Baty’s demotion to Triple-A.

In our baseball segment this week, we talk about the Yankees, who are somehow even more embarrassing than the Mets right now. Similarly, the White Sox have devolved further into chaos.

Finally, we wrap things up with Walk-off Wins, where each of us talks about what’s making us happy this week, baseball-related or otherwise.

Flushing is Burning, Episode 15: Well. The Mets sell. Aug 02, 2023

Show notes

Welcome to Flushing is Burning, the latest addition to the Home Run Applesauce family of podcasts, hosted by Grace Carbone and Christian Romo. Flushing is Burning is a weekly podcast examining the Mets, queer issues, and the occasional intersection of the two.

The vibes are rarely good around a team choosing to sell at the trade deadline, but they were especially bad around the Mets this week. The David Robertson and Max Scherzer trades brought impressive prospect hauls, but did they come at a bigger cost? Christian and Grace discuss.

They also look at the realistic options for this team heading into the 2024 season now that 2023 looks lost. But even though the Mets won’t likely win the World Series this season, there still are some fun things to keep track of over the season’s final two months.

And for Grace’s move minute: Last week was Barb-, and this week is -enheimer! Grace said it was anxiety-inducing and overwhelming and also the best movie she’s seen this year. Christian has doubts.

Finally, we wrap things up with Walk-off Wins, where each of us talks about what’s making us happy this week, baseball-related or otherwise.
