The New York Mets are shaking up their rotation with top pitching prospect Jonah Tong set to make his MLB debut. This episode of Locked On Mets breaks down Tong's dominant minor league performance, his electric fastball-changeup combo, and what his promotion means for the Mets' playoff push. 

Host Ryan Finkelstein analyzes how Tong fits into a fluid rotation picture alongside Kodai Senga, Sean Manaea, and fellow rookie Nolan McLean. With the Mets still eyeing the NL East crown, Tong's debut adds intrigue to a critical series against the Marlins. Will the 22-year-old Canadian sensation force his way into the Mets' postseason plans? 

Tune in for expert insight on Tong's arsenal and how his call-up impacts the Mets' pitching depth heading into September.
