Ep. 140: 7x All-Star & Mets' Captain David Wright

Seven-time All-Star third baseman David Wright, one of the most respected players of his era, joins us for this episode to reflect on his 14-year career spent entirely with the New York Mets, where he became known for his leadership, disciplined preparation, relentless work ethic, and being an exceptional teammate—qualities that earned him the role of team captain. David shares his youth sports journey, including being underestimated early on and using that motivation to outwork everyone around him, the influential role his parents played in his development, and what being a great teammate truly means. He also offers fun stories from his time in the dugout with Frenchy, thoughtful perspectives as a dad and youth sports coach, and valuable advice for young athletes and parents.
