Listen "Office Etiquette: Dead. Long Live the Scavenger Hunt!"

Episode Synopsis

BT & Sal kick off a fiery segment by discussing the death of office etiquette after Sal left three boxes of vintage baseball cards (including an '88 Score Mattingly!) in a community area, only for them to vanish without a trace in under two hours. Tierney confesses he, too, swiped a few packs "just in case Santa forgets" but was shocked to find the entire haul—and even the boxes—gone on his return. The hosts rail against the "every man for himself" mentality that dominates the station's communal space.

The discussion pivots to the MLB free-agent market, where Sal details Marc Feinsand's top starting pitcher rankings, including Ranger Suarez, Framber Valdez, and Michael King—all of whom the Mets and Yankees are pursuing. Sal expresses frustration over the Mets missing out on Max Fried last year, arguing that he was a better and more proven "true ace" than the high-priced, potential-based pitchers available now. Tierney highlights the defensive concerns, noting Valdez's extreme ground-ball rate and the Mets' shaky infield defense (especially at 3B/1B).
