OMG, the Mets have hits on the field and the airwaves, plus the Meet at the Apple crew stops by the show

The Mets Pod

On the latest episode of The Mets Pod presented by Tri-State Cadillac, Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo talk Mets big hits on the field, both of the baseball and the music variety, plus Vito Calise and Jonathan Baron from the Meet at the Apple podcast stop by the show. First up, Connor and Joe recap a crazy week that featured a Subway Series sweep of the Yankees, Jose Iglesias performing OMG at Citi Field, the Mets offense rolling, and a bunch of bullpen misadventures against the Astros and Nationals. The guys also look at the return of Christian Scott to the rotation, go Down on the Farm to look for reliever options, and break out the Mailbag to answer questions about prospect rankings, the trade value of Brett Baty, and MLB trade deadline scenarios. Vito Calise and Jonathan Baron from the Meet at the Apple podcast also join the show for a chat about Mets podcasting, the full stories behind Grimace and the Jose Iglesias OMG performance, and the exciting scene that Citi Field has become on game day.
