Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo drop an all-new episode of The Mets Pod presented by Tri-State Cadillac, as Ronny Mauricio has dropped in on the Mets with flair as September statements must be made for the future of the organization. Connor and Joe examine the big league beginnings for Mauricio, a power surge for Pete Alonso, whether or not DJ Stewart has a Mets future, the return of Brett Baty, and the continued success of Kodai Senga. Later, the guys go down on the farm for a status check on prospects Drew Gilbert, Luisangel Acuna, Ryan Clifford, and Jett Williams. Finally, the show dives into the Mailbag to answer questions about a potential 2023 return for Edwin Diaz, how a 2024 rotation would fill out if the Mets sign Yoshinobu Yamamoto, and what current pieces of the bullpen could have a role next season.
