About this episode
Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo welcome Keith Hernandez to an all-new episode of The Mets Pod, SNY’s podcast covering all things New York Mets, as the Mets continue their winning ways and build their lead in the NL East. The guys talk to Keith about the impact of Buck Showalter, the consistent hustle the Mets show on a daily basis, and how the new additions in the offseason have fit so well with the players already here. Keith also talks about the offensive approach of Jeff McNeil, shares the story of how Mets owner Steve Cohen broke the news to him about his upcoming jersey retirement, and reveals his plans for Old Timer’s Day. Later, Connor and Joe open up the Mailbag and answer a question that leads to a long answer on Luis Guillorme.
