A fun start for the Mets, with full eyes on the new guys

Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo are talking real baseball on an all-new episode of the The Mets Pod! The guys take a look at Freddy Peralta, Bo Bichette, Carson Benge, all the other new Mets through the first few games of the schedule, go Down on the Farm to ponder contract extensions for prospects, and launch a new season of the Scoreboard with new twists, turns, and stakes! Later, Connor and Joe open the Mailbag to answer questions about a role for Mark Vientos and the overall state of the bullpen.
