Freddy Peralta meets the Mets, a Craig Kimbrel flier, and the Mets all-time lineup

On the latest episode of The Mets Pod, Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo are hitting the home stretch of the offseason as spring training is in the air. First up, the guys react to the Freddy Peralta introductory news conference and continue the contract extension chatter, share their thoughts on the clubhouse vibes after manager Carlos Mendoza made comments about last season, and look at what may come from the signing of reliever Craig Kimbrel. Later, the guys go Down on the Farm to tell the story of this week's social media sensation Jefry Yan, and answer Mailbag questions about a world where the Mets brought back Pete Alonso and Edwin Diaz, the idea of Brett Baty playing first base, and who they would chose to fill out their all-time Mets lineup.
