Summary

Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo are back with a new episode of The Mets Pod presented by Tri-State Cadillac, as the Mets are off to a nice start, with positive signs, and plus pitching. Connor and Joe look at the starters who have been solid, the relievers who have been superb, and the lineup which has been uneven but showing off potential pop – including heroics from Francisco Lindor, Juan Soto, and Pete Alonso. Later, the guys go Down on the Farm to check in on the return to the mound of pitching prospect Matt Allan, do another round of The Scoreboard bets, and answer Mailbag questions about Pete Alonso’s contract, the future at second base, and the potential big league future for Double-A pitching prospect Nolan McLean.
