If you don't want to sit through 90 minutes of Rockies bullpen and NL Central prospect list talk in what is supposed to be nominally a Mets podcast, we understand, so we have separated out our very informative chat with Howard Megdal from last week's show. We discuss the history of the Mets finances, why they might be cutting payroll again, and why MLB (and the MLBPA) don't seem to want to do anything about it.
