The Mets PodAbout this episode
On the latest episode of The Mets Pod presented by Tri-State Cadillac, SNY Mets play-by-play broadcaster Gary Cohen joins Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo to talk about the Mets winning ways and the party atmosphere at Citi Field. The crew covers crazy crowds in Queens, the sparkling starting rotation, Brett Baty, Luisangel Acuna, Francisco Lindor, and Gary reveals what it was like calling the Roku game with Joe Girardi and his favorite ballpark to call a game in outside of Citi Field. Later, Connor and Joe look back at another successful week for the Mets, go Down on the Farm to chat about Jonah Tong, Nolan McLean, Matt Allan, and other pitching prospects, and answer Mailbag questions about additional outfield options, potential Mets All-Stars, and pitching possibilities surrounding the MLB trade deadline.
