On the latest episode of The Mets Pod presented by Tri-State Cadillac, Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo recap another tough week for the Mets, while looking ahead to the Brewers at Citi Field and the second round of this season’s Subway Series. First things first, the guys go through the team’s struggles hitting with runners in scoring position, how much the hitting coaches should or should not be to blame, as well as the multiple issues with the starting rotation. Later, Connor and Joe go Down on the Farm to check in on Francisco Alvarez, Brandon Sproat, Nolan McLean, and Jonah Tong - while also addressing which prospects they would be willing to include in potential trades. The show then wraps up by announcing the winners of the Mets Pod hat giveaway, and then answering Mailbag questions about the return of injured Mets, the potential of trading for Byron Buxton, and if the Mets offense can flip the switch back to “on!” Be sure to subscribe to The Mets Pod at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.
