The New York Mets make a significant bullpen move, signing left-hander A.J. Minter to a two-year, $22 million deal.  

Host Ryan Finkelstein breaks down the impact of this acquisition on the Mets' pitching staff and overall roster construction. He analyzes Minter's track record, including his consistent performance and experience in high-leverage situations.  

The episode explores how this signing affects the Mets' pursuit of other free agents like Tanner Scott and potential internal options for the bullpen. Finkelstein also discusses the team's strategy for balancing veteran presence with opportunities for young players, particularly in the infield.
