Explore the New York Mets' strategic approach to the MLB free agent market as they navigate potential signings for their 2025 starting rotation.  

With reports suggesting the Mets might bypass top-tier pitchers like Max Fried and Corbin Burnes, the episode questions whether they can still build a formidable rotation.  

Host Ryan Finkelstein examines the potential of signing Walker Bueller, a pitcher with a history of excellence, and discusses the implications of recent signings like Frankie Montas.  

The episode also touches on the Mets' interest in the potential shift of Clay Holmes from reliever to starter. Can the Mets rely on reclamation projects to bolster their pitching staff, or do they need a true ace to compete?
