Joe DeMayo and guest co-host Jacob Wilkins deliver the latest episode of The Mets Pod, as the Mets wrap a decent May and flip the calendar towards a tougher schedule in June. Jacob and Joe do a deep dive on Carson Benge and A.J. Ewing, and all that's happened for the top prospects since the guys called their action in previous Spring Breakout games. They also look at the continued struggles of the offense, the loud noise that the bullpen is quietly making, and the state of the starting staff.  The show also goes Down on the Farm to see where things stand with slugging prospect Ryan Clifford, and answers Mailbag questions about the MLB trade deadline, Mike Tauchman, A.J. Ewing leading off, and more. Be sure to subscribe to The Mets Pod at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.
