Should the New York Mets pursue Spencer Torkelson to fill their first base void?  

This episode dives into the Mets' rumored interest in the former first overall pick and explores potential trade scenarios. 

Host Ryan Finkelstein breaks down Torkelson's struggles with the Detroit Tigers and analyzes his hitting profile, including his power potential and weaknesses against off-speed pitches.

The discussion shifts to Max Scherzer's potential return to the Mets, as the team was one of eight to scout the veteran pitcher recently.  

Finkelstein examines how Scherzer might fit into the Mets' rotation plans and compares his potential impact to other options like Paul Blackburn and Griffin Canning.  

The episode also touches on the Mets' signing of Adbert Alzolay to a two-year minor league deal, highlighting the potential long-term value of this move.
