Why Is Cody Bellinger “Cheap”? Craig Carton Debates Yankees Deal, Mets Moves & Fixing Baseball
Podcast: The Carton Show with Craig Carton & Chris McMoniglePublished On: Wed Jan 21 2026
Description: Craig Carton and Big Mac take a deep — and hilarious — dive into the Cody Bellinger contract as callers question why the Yankees landed him for “only” $32.5 million per year compared to massive deals for Kyle Tucker, Bo Bichette, and Luis Robert Jr. The discussion spirals into Bellinger’s wildly inconsistent career, whether the Mets should have pursued him harder, and why some Mets fans are cautiously optimistic while others remain furious. From Venezuelan winter ball and Savannah Bananas gimmicks to Craig’s radical idea to save baseball with 6:00 PM first pitches, spring training plans in Tampa, and classic Carton storytelling, this segment delivers pure WFAN chaos, baseball passion, and nonstop laughs.
