In this episode of the "Giant Mess" podcast, New York Mets fan Neal Lynch recaps the first half of the Amazins' 2024 season, from the maydays of May to the June boom to climbing above .500 at the All-Star break. Plus, Neal gives his thoughts on how much the Metros missed El Troll Francisco Alvarez, Francisco Lindor and Brandon Nimmo getting left off the All-Star team, Pete Alonso's All-Star and Home Run Derby appearances, Jose Iglesias' hit song OMG as Candelita, the Grimace Era, the Rally Pimp, the power of positivity and more.

ABOUT NEAL LYNCH:

I'm an Irish-Italian-American who graduated from 1) a Catholic high school (even though I'm not Catholic), and 2) a college known for producing doctors and lacrosse players, then became neither. I was a former 4th string college quarterback and middle relief pitcher who thought an overpriced film and media studies degree was a smart choice. Now, I'm a single dad who likes to blog, vlog, podcast, write, edit, optimize, strategize, and over-analyze.
