Gary Cohen joins the show, as the Mets continue the race to October

Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo drop Episode 24 of The Mets Pod, as SNY’s Gary Cohen drops by the show! Connor and Joe talk to Gary about what makes this year’s team different from Mets teams of the past, how the new additions to the organization this season have impressed, and memories from the special 1999 season as well as the events surrounding the closing of Shea Stadium. Gary also shares what it’s like working with Keith Hernandez and Ron Darling, chats about his bobblehead giveaway at Citi Field, and discusses the energy at the ballpark when Timmy Trumpet played live for an Edwin Diaz entrance. Later in the show, Connor and Joe talk about the inconsistent offense, the look of the lineup with Luis Guillorme and a red-hot Eduardo Escobar, and the long-awaited big league debut of Mark Vientos. The guys wrap the episode with the Mailbag, featuring questions about MLB rule changes and Jeff McNeil’s spot in the batting order.
