Hey as long as they win they can put who ever they want in studio…Ben Stein and Guiseppe Franco would be fine with me as long as they are reporting on us running away with the division…cruising thru the playoffs and dominating the world series!!!

As far as MLB Network: if you have digital cable, you will have the network FOR FREE. Right now, matt is watching the previews in a TEST market…several communities around tri state area have that (not everyone).

Network is exciting because it will literally be 24 hours baseball…

I think its available in 50 million homes…no other cable channel in HISTORY has opened that large…

I could see Ron Darling leave SNY. He’d be the only one I can picture leaving for greener pastures.

Gary and Keith aren’t going anywhere unless Keith goes on an epicly awesome tirade or something.

Well, for the pre-games it looks like I will just turn on WFAN and listen to Eddie Coleman.

Wow, I couldn’t disagree more. That’s one of the things I loved about Yalloff. that he was clearly a Mets fan, and that those painful losses hurt him, too. You could tell.

The only problem I have with Loudmouths is that it should be called Morons. I don’t usually watch post-game stuff, and Carlin will turn the “usually” to “virtually never”. He’s obnoxious, pompous, and really, really dumb. He’s like Franscesa, except less pompous and possibly dumber.

Can someone PLEASE explain this one to me? Not about Maz being replaced, but about Matt Yalloff… I loved him in that role. What about him needs to be replaced? He was a true Mets fan, it was obvious. He would always make me feel a little better after a loss, especially a tough one, as you could tell it bothered him as well. Plus, he was honest and funny about it.

Carlin’s a wet blanket. He just likes to be negative, even when others are excited. When the Mets were playing really well at one point, when they took over first place even, he would keep telling callers not to get excited, and he would have his diatribes about not getting exciting, that fans should be cautious in their optimism, since the pen is still horrible, even if they had been pitching well that particular week. And sure, he was right, but did he have to be a wet blanket to every excited caller? Did he have to try to take away any fun fans were having when the Mets were finally doing well, were finally winning? What, he didn’t think we were all too painfully aware that we still had the worst bullpen of any contending team? Of course we knew this. But in the meantime, we just took two out of three from the Phillies, after our pen had just blown the opening game (for example).

I am sorry. I just don’t see it. I mean, not only are they replacing someone I REALLY liked in that pre-game/post-game role, but they are replacing him with someone I REALLY could do without. And I just don’t get it. Sure, Carlin’s fine on Loud Mouths, but I don’t want to see him doing the Mets games, not one bit. It wouldn’t bother me as much if he wasn’t replacing Yalloff, though. Ugh!
