  • Gregg Jefferies on on Pressure, Injuries & Growing Up a Met
    2025/11/04
    Two-time All-Star Gregg Jefferies joins Jay Horwitz to talk about breaking into a championship Mets clubhouse as a 17-year-old phenom, replacing Wally Backman, the hamstring injury that ended his career early, and why he turned down MLB coaching and broadcasting jobs to be with family. Jefferies opens up about his unique pool-drill training from his father, why “old-school baseball” still works, thoughts on Shohei Ohtani’s insane talent, his feelings about MLB’s new rules, and the emotional Shea Stadium ovation when he returned years later. This one’s part Mets history, part hitting masterclass, and all heart. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
