Juan Soto Is Back...Can He Actually Save the Mets’ Season?
Podcast: Evan & TikiPublished On: Wed Apr 22 2026
Description: Juan Soto’s return from injury brings a much needed spark to a struggling Mets team, but questions remain about whether it is enough to turn things around. After a brutal stretch, the spotlight shifts to how quickly one superstar can impact a lineup that has been searching for consistency and identity. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber react to Soto’s recovery, revisit their predictions on his return timeline, and debate whether urgency influenced the decision to bring him back. They also break down the Mets’ ongoing issues, the ripple effect of elite hitters on a lineup, and pivot to the NBA playoffs with thoughts on the Knicks, the unpredictability of early series results, and whether the current format still delivers the same intensity as years past.
