Stearns' Ice-Cold Business Plan: No Emotion, No World Series
Podcast: The Carton Show with Craig Carton & Chris McMoniglePublished On: Fri Dec 12 2025
Description: BT & Sal dive into the emotional anguish of Mets fandom, debating a caller who fears waiting 50 years for another World Series and wants a win while his father is still alive. The hosts tear into GM David Stearns' perceived lack of emotional connection, arguing that running the team "like a business" without caring for the fans is a recipe for failure. The discussion quickly turns fiery, questioning the deep-seated mistrust Mets fans have for Steve Cohen and whether the Metropolitan Park casino project is the real priority over a winning team. Finally, the talk shifts to the Yankees, where Sal slams Brian Cashman for the "stupid qualifying offer" to Trent Grisham, calling it the major mistake that crippled the Yankees' ability to land Cody Bellinger and other key free agents. They debate the Yankees' appetite for a long-term deal with Bellinger, drawing parallels to the costly, ultimately failed pursuit of Juan Soto.
