What's it like being a fan of the New York Mets?

They have the richest owner in all of baseball in Steve Cohen, signed a generational talent in Juan Soto and yet still decide to randomly hit a 10 game losing streak in the first 3 weeks of the season!

It's an absolute roller coaster being a Mets fan, as Gaz finds out this week as he doubles up as therapist for George!

George has been a Mets fan for the past 5 years and even in that short space of time, has experienced the highs of the NLCS run in 2024, to the lows of the one of the greatest slumps in recent memory of 2025.

So join them as discuss what it is like to be a fan of the New York Metropolitans, with some of Boo's finest Hot Takes and some Start Bench Cuts added for good measure!

It's the OG combo meal with extra fries - Cal & Gaz are coming at you with this weeks' Rounders Roundup!

The new City Connect jerseys dropped this past week, with the Braves, Brewers, Reds, Pirates, Royals, Rangers, Orioles and Padres all dropping new threads! Which ones do the BDB team like the most? Find out on this episode!

We also discuss the rise of the Walker (not a Star Wars pun), as Jordan Walker has started this year off hot! 

How hot I hear you ask? 

Almost as hot as Jorge Soler & Reynaldo Lopez were as they engaged in some fisticuffs that no one else on the Angels or Braves wanted a part of!

All of this and more on this week's Roundup!

Saddle up BDB fans - it's time for a British baseball episode!

Joining Gaz & Alan on this one is Taff Mercer from the Plymouth Outlaws - a baseball club based down in the South-West of England!

The Plymouth Outlaws are one of the newer clubs in Britain, founded in 2025 by 3 players who had previously played for the Plymouth Mariners club. They now operate two teams in British Baseball, one at the Division 4 and one at the Division 5 level!

What really sets them apart however is their social media game - with reels and interviews with the team going viral and really helping to drive interest in the game down South!

Plymouth has had a long history with baseball, due to Naval officers from the US bringing the game over with them when they were stationed there (Plymouth has a long proud history as a naval base in the UK)!

Since then clubs have been popping up all over the South West, in places such as Plymouth, Exeter and even Tayport!

So we sat down with Taff to discuss why the game is growing so much locally and what the Outlaws have done to help promote the game! We also discuss the general feeling of the game over here and what we wish MLB would do more of to help promote the game!

If you're interested in learning more about the Plymouth Outlaws, then drop them a follow on Instagram at @plymouthoutlaws - you won't regret it!
