The Mets roller coaster rolls on, starters go up and down, Juan Soto is on fire
Description
On the latest episode of The Mets Pod presented by Tri-State Cadillac, Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo cover another crazy week for the Mets as the September stretch run begins. The guys start with a week of highs and lows, which included exciting performances from young hurlers Nolan McLean and Jonah Tong, and uninspiring performances from older hurlers Sean Manaea and Kodai Senga. Connor and Joe also discuss the red-hot Juan Soto, the idea of calling up pitching prospect Brandon Sproat, and also answer Mailbag questions about the rules surrounding September call ups and the future of second base and center field.
