On the latest episode of The Mets Pod presented by Tri-State Cadillac, Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo stay on the rollercoaster with the Mets - a mix of wins, losses, and a Cowboy riding into town. First up, Connor and Joe cover the big league debut of the Artist formerly known as Cowboy Ohtani, as Nolan McLean dazzled on the Citi Field mound to help the Mets to victory. The guys also review the state of the starters, the shaky relievers, and the offense showing signs of breaking out. The show goes Down on the Farm to see how things are going in the early Triple-A days of top prospects Jonah Tong and Jett Williams, then dives into the Mailbag to answer questions about possible September call ups and more. There’s also a big announcement, The Mets Pod will be live at Citi Field on Tuesday August 26th at 5pm, right by the Home Run Apple near the Rotunda. Stop by and say hello!
