The Mets Pod continues its offseason preview series with Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo looking at the lineup, as Episode 31 puts the focus on offense in honor of the other big Mets number 31 that hangs in Citi Field. Connor and Joe talk about the big decision on Brandon Nimmo, how it might be time to put Francisco Alvarez behind the big league plate, and where the current pieces under contract still fit the team. The guys also dig deep on potential targets from outside the organization, like Trea Turner, Carlos Correa, Aaron Judge, Shohei Ohtani, and more. This week’s Mailbag also takes some big swings, with questions answered about options at designated hitter and in free agency overall.
