SNY host is in a ‘bad dream’ after revealing she was part of layoffs

Former SNY host Niki Lattarulo said she was one of the “unlucky ones” let go in last week’s layoffs at the network.

The Post confirmed that SNY, the sports network that broadcasts Mets games, canceled its shows “SportsNite” and “Baseball Night in New York” on Friday and laid off a majority of its editorial staff.

“Unfortunately, I was one of the unlucky ones let go from SNY,” Lattarulo wrote Monday in an X post. “While I still feel like I’m living in a bad dream, I’m incredibly grateful that this opportunity brought me back to my home market and allowed me to work with the BEST people. Onward and upward!!”

Lattarulo reacted to the layoffs on Saturday, writing on X, “Dark day at SNY. Sending love to all my people.”

Lattarulo joined SNY in June 2023 after previously working as a sports anchor and reporter for WSMV in Nashville, Tennessee.

SNY will continue to produce its pregame and postgame shows for the Mets and Jets, among other programs.

“As part of our regular review of our business, operations and programming, SNY has decided to cease broadcasting ‘Baseball Night in New York’ and ‘SportsNite,’” a spokesperson for SNY told The Post.

“We are grateful to those team members that helped bring these programs to fans for many years. Ongoing coverage of the Mets and New York sports are at the heart of SNY’s business, and we remain focused on continuing to deliver high-quality content to our passionate fans.”

A source told The Post that “changes are coming to the website to focus more on scheduling information and promotion.”

As of Monday, SNY has removed past articles and editorial content from its website.

Both the “Mets Hot Stove” show and “The Carton Show” WFAN simulcast reportedly were unaffected and will continue to air.

Chelsea Janes, Ian Begley and Connor Hughes will remain as in-air contributors with the network, per The Athletic.
