Playing the Mets blame game, trying for a turnaround, and stopping by Citi Field
Episode description
Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo record the latest episode of The Mets Pod presented by Tri-State Cadillac at Citi Field, as the guys mingle with Mets fans in the Cadillac Club in right field as the Mets try to get right on the field. Connor and Joe play the blame game for the Mets problems, dishing it all out to Buck Showalter, the front office, and the players. They guys also look at the continued poor performance of the starting rotation, go down on the farm to check in on Mike Vasil and Kevin Parada, and go long on the Mailbag with questions answered about Jose Quintana, the MLB Trade Deadline, the future of the organization’s starting pitching, the MLB Draft, the Eduardo Escobar trade, and so much more.
