SNY finally announced today Bob Ojeda will be their lead studio analyst and Chris Carlin will be the new host for pre- and post-game.

ojeda once let me wear his 1986 World Championship Ring, while i waited in line to buy Opening Day Mets tickets at Shea Stadium back in 1999… back then, in the ‘old days,’ fans would line up around the stadium and be moved like cattle from bin to bin, in an orderly fashion, in advance of reaching the ticket window, where you’d lock up tickets… anyway, former players would often work the line, signing autographs, passing out hot chocolate and talking with fans… i miss that experience, as cold as it was

Also, according to the press release, “In addition, SNY will produce a comprehensive post-game show following every Mets game this season – including Mets games on PIX11, FOX and ESPN.  Darryl Strawberry will also be a contributing analyst.”
