Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber continue the Mets conversation by debating whether the team’s young players are a real reason for hope or simply a product of injuries and circumstance. The guys weigh the excitement around A.J. Ewing and Carson Benge against the Mets’ ugly record, their distance from contention, and the frustration fans feel after another season filled with setbacks.

The discussion then turns to Anthony Volpe, whose return to the Yankees brings back familiar questions about expectations, confidence, and whether he still fits in the team’s plans. Evan argues that Volpe should no longer be viewed as a top prospect or locked in starter, while the group debates whether he will stay on the roster once Jose Caballero is ready to return.
