On a new episode of the “Amazin’ But True” podcast with Jake Brown and Nelson Figueroa, the guys open the show reacting to the Mets losing two of three games to the Padres. They discuss Max Scherzer’s rough outing and debate whether the Mets should trade him before the deadline. They also get into DJ Stewart being in Sunday’s lineup, Buck Showalter’s bad challenge, the 1st inning struggles and whether the Mets should consider firing pitching coach Jeremy Hefner. They grade the first half of the season, look ahead to the All-Star break, the second half and whether the Mets can turn it around to get to the playoffs.
