Rising Apple Report, Ep. 20 – Terry Collins & Marlins Preview with a Maniac

Sam Maxwell — Tue, 30 Apr 2013 19:04:07 +0000

Prior to last night’s eye-roller, Rich Sparago and I hit the airwaves to discuss the debacle of a weekend sweep to Phillie in the Citi. Though the chatter included Ruben Tejada and his long-term stature, Terry Collins and his ever-evolving status (as far as us fans are concerned) ended up being the majority of our Mets talk (Rich pointed out Collins’ demeanor in the Sunday postgame press conference, an interesting topic nobody else has really discussed.)

In between all of that, a Marlin Maniac named Alex called in to debrief us on the (now) 7-19 team.

So, spend a half-hour of your afternoon catching up with the latest edition of the Rising Apple Report!

Rising Apple Report, Ep. 19 – Dodgers Series Wrapup & Phillies Preview with Ted

Sam Maxwell — Fri, 26 Apr 2013 16:55:15 +0000

Yesterday evening, I was happy to be joined by staff writer Will DeBoer for the first time since the inaugural episode of the Report. We discussed the likes of Jordany being Jordany, Terry Collins’ status, the starting pitching down on the farm and the odd men out when they arrive in Flushing. (more…)

Rising Apple Report, Ep. 18 – Nats Wrapup & Dodgers Preview

Sam Maxwell — Tue, 23 Apr 2013 17:09:21 +0000

Unfortunately, after postponing the podcast last Monday because of the bombings, we attempted to produce Ep. 18 on Thursday prior to the Nats series. The fates didn’t apparently want us to get any podcast done last week, for a minute before we went on the air, Blog Talk Radio informed us of technical difficulties they were having, and on cue, each of our voices came through choppy on the line.

FINALLY, though without Hayden from Rox Pile who will join us when the Rockies come to town, we were able to get Episode 18 on the air on Monday at 6:30PM EST.

Andrew from District on Deck called in to talk about things such as the Nats defensive woes, Ryan Zimmerman‘s bum shoulder and whether there will be a bullpen shakeup anytime soon.

And Scott from Lasorda’s Lair called in to preview the Dodgers before they roll in this evening for a 3-game set (which included plenty of talk about Carlos Quentin and the Zack Greinke injury.)

Danny and I also briefly discussed Rafael Montero (who I couldn’t stop calling Rafael Soriano with the Nats talk still fresh in my head) and Brandon Nimmo, who are each dominating their respective minor league levels.

So, fill a little more than a half-hour of your afternoon with the Rising Apple Report, the best Mets talk on the internet airwaves!
