Tim and Ted praise Buck Showalter's attention to detail and knowledge of the rule book after it pays off against the D-backs. Also, the Mets starting pitching has been better than advertised even without Jacob deGrom. The guys discuss filthy pitching, the Giants series and a listener question for Jeremy Heffner.

After the Mets bullpen gives up leads in back-to-back losses on Sunday and Monday, is it time to blame Buck Showalter or just chalk it up to a small sample size of bad luck? Tim and Ted look at the bullpen but also look at some silver linings including Carlos Carraso's solid start and an offense that looks formidable.

Listener question: What would Jacob deGrom need to do in four months to win a Cy Young Award this season?

Plus, the guys share some book recommendations. That's a full episode of content!

Tim and Ted are fast forwarding through Spring Training. Max Scherzer looks ready to go and the Mets traded for starter Chris Bassitt, but is the club not doing enough to keep up with the rest of the National League East. Also, is there still a chance Michael Conforto returns to Queens?

This week's question from @NycPauly19: Pretend you could make a three-team trade between the 2000, 2006 and 2015 postseason teams to bring each team to the promised land?

Tim and Ted check back in because the lockout is still going on. They discuss when this may end and why the heck it's still going on. They also think back to November and remind Mets fans that this team did a lot to improve before the lockout and they explain what's left to do if baseball returns.

Steve Cohen opened up his wallet again and again and again over the last week and Ted and Tim react to the Mets spending spree. Is an older Max Scherzer worth the overspend? How will the outfield shake out with the additions of Marte and Canha? How are you feeling about the club finally spending big?
