On the latest episode of The Mets Pod presented by Tri-State Cadillac, Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo turn their offseason focus towards the Mets starting rotation. The guys start off the show with their thoughts on the reports that Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal could hit the trade market this offseason, and talk about the Mets new bench coach and Director of Major League Hitting. Connor and Joe then take on a “Mailbag Challenge” and negotiate Mets mock trades for Skubal, Paul Skenes, Freddy Peralta, Joe Ryan, and Sandy Alcantara. The show also goes Down on the Farm to check in on Nick Morabito and Chris Suero at the Arizona Fall League, and answers a Mailbag question about the possibility of the Mets pursuing free agent Cody Bellinger.
