Flushing is Burning: We’re so Bo-ack

The Mets have been able to pivot from one big free agent to another.

Grace is back, recovered from yet another illness, to talk about the latest in baseball. First she gets into the Mets, who lost quite a few long time Mets while adding some big name free agents. They also have some big news brewing potentially with the Hall of Fame results imminent.

Next, she speed runs the league's free agency news, trying to cover all of the big moves, especially the biggest move of Tucker. Then she once again comments on the "character clause" of the Hall of Fame qualifications, and the misuse of it to punish only what is perceived as bad for baseball and not actual major character flaws (and often crimes).

Finally, she does an irreverent trans comedy as a movie minute, but it turns into a double movie minute when she realizes that movie is not currently widely available to the public.
