| 0:44.8 | Show we thank you for joining us on this Monday, April 6th, 20, 26, me and you for two. |
| 0:53.8 | Those are the rules of engagement. |
| 0:55.3 | You know the deal. |
| 0:56.4 | And it's the fastest two hours in sports talk radio. |
| 0:59.0 | And the password to be a co-host is 1-800-919-376. |
| 1:06.1 | 1-800-919-39-376. |
| 1:16.8 | So Carlin and Asman just talking about the Dexter Lawrence requesting a trade. |
| 1:23.5 | See what the Giants could get for him. He has not performed all that great over the last couple of years for the Giants. |
| 2:38.9 | He wants more money. The Giants are saying, no, no, we're good. So now he wants to be traded. He's not going to come to any of the offseason workouts. And we'll see what the Giants could get for him. But I wanted to mention that if you want to talk about it. We're more than willing to do it. We're going to do some baseball right at the start. The Mets had a really good weekend in San Francisco. That's what you want. you want to go in and you want to beat bad teams. And the Giants right now are a bad team. So the Mets took three out of four. You take it, you run with it, and then you come back home. So all in all, a four and three road trip. They lost two out of three of the Cardinals.

| 2:43.5 | i feel strongly about this calf injuries are a bear it's a long time to come back from it. Everything works off that part of the body, |
| 2:53.2 | and you just do not want to mess with that. I know that he's probably pressuring the Mets. |
| 2:58.5 | I can play. I could play. But the bottom line is the Mets have to say discretion is the better part |
| 3:05.5 | of valor. So they didn't say what degree it was, what degree the injury was, but they said it was not as bad as it could have been. |
| 3:15.8 | So good, that's knock on wood. |
| 3:17.4 | But that doesn't mean that you put them into the game on Tuesday. |
