0:00.0	Welcome to the Mets Pod. On today's show, the Mets go back into a spiral. We'll break it all down.
0:05.9	So subscribe to the show at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, wherever you get your podcast.
0:14.6	What's up, everybody? Welcome to the MetsPod. I'm your host, Connor Rogers, joined as always by my co-host, Joe DeMail, and a one and six stretch for the Mets since the last podcast. Joe, all of the hope they've built up just quickly washed away.
