Inside the Mets Approach with Daniel Murphy

34 minutes

Welcome to The Mets Clubhouse Pass presented by PC Richard & Son, hosted by Andy Martino.

In this episode, Andy gives you a true inside-the-building perspective on the Mets' early season — including why front offices don’t overreact to small sample struggles, what’s real vs noise, and why there’s confidence in this roster.

Then, former Mets All-Star Daniel Murphy joins the show for a deep, analytical baseball conversation you won’t hear anywhere else.

Murphy breaks down:

What hitters actually discuss during early struggles with runners in scoring position

Why situational hitting is everything early in the season

The mental approach elite players use to stay consistent

How hitting philosophy evolves at the highest level

Why “win this pitch” is the foundation of success

Plus, Andy dives into early takeaways from inside the Mets clubhouse — including pitching standouts, leadership tone, and what matters long-term.

If you want real baseball talk from inside the game, this is it.
