It didn't feel like this day would come in 2020, but MLB is set to kick off their season, and the Mets 60 game sprint is finally upon us. Unfortunately the black cloud of Flushing has already started raining on Citi Field as Marcus Stroman is injured, and our rotation is looking thin right out of the gate. Is it a big deal? Who knows, but any missed time is huge in this abbreviated season. This will be the first Opening Day in history where fans won't be in attendance, but the cutouts are waterproof, Juan Lagares is back, Matt Harvey won't be, it's #WomenInBaseballWeek, and more. Catch up with Pete McCarthy and Darren Meenan from the Citi Field parking lot.

An "Orange and Blue Thing" is something that Mets fans can relate to, so that's what we talk about.
This might also be curtains for OABT. It's been a fun 7 years, but this might very well be the final episode. We've had a lot of laughs along the way and we thank you for joining us each week. With that, we chat about our favorite moments running this show, and look to a few important things coming up for Mets fans.
The Mets announced that they're creating a tenured system for their season ticket holders, and a lot of fans are pretty upset about it. Even after this disappointing season, some prices are going up, while some special perks (like Opening Day tickets and postseason strips), are going away for select plans.
We're back from Minnesota after hanging an L on T7LA's calendar. An unnamed Mets staffer said to Darren in Starbucks after the game "hope you had a good time before we shit the bed". We're borrowing a segment from SNY's Off Day Live show and Joe DeMayo joins us. Plus, who snubbed Darren for a selfie at the airport?
