The 2022 Mets reach the end of the road

There’s no joy in Metville as the 2022 Mets ended their wild ride with a loss in the Wild Card round, but Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo are here for a baseball therapy session with Episode 28 of The Mets Pod. The guys go all in on the season and the way it went, recalling the ups and downs of a 2022 campaign that saw 101 wins and a disappointing end. Connor and Joe break down everything that happened in the series against the Padres, and look at where the organization stands moving forward, including what the team needs to do to take the next step. The Mailbag is always taking another step however, featuring questions about Buck Showalter’s ceiling as a manager, player development, the Joe Musgrove drama, and the future at catcher. Of course, the pod will roll on through the offseason, so be sure to subscribe to The Mets Pod at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.0:00 Welcome to the show4:31 Processing the end of the season8:25 Changes coming to the Mets10:28 Game 1 recap14:15 Francisco Alvarez18:18 Padres vs Mets: Big picture23:04 The Joe Musgrove situation26:34 Padres stepping out every pitch30:29 Mailbag: Is this as good as it gets with Buck Showalter?33:40 Mailbag: Mets player development issues38:16 Why didn't the Mets copy the Padres' delay tactics?41:12 Trade James McCann?43:15 Closing thoughtsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
