Hello to Juan Soto, now Mets’ eyes turn to Pete Alonso and more pitching | The Mets Pod

On the latest episode of The Mets Pod presented by Tri-State Cadillac, Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo recap the Juan Soto introductory news conference and preview the rest of the offseason.

First up, the guys look back at Soto’s first day in Queens and what it means for the Mets franchise moving forward, then they discuss all kinds of hot stove scenarios featuring different combinations of Pete Alonso, Sean Manaea, Christian Walker, Luis Castillo, Alex Bregman, Walker Buehler, and more.

Later, the show goes Down on the Farm to field a Mailbag question about starting the service time clock on prospects, and then moves to the main Mailbag to hit questions about the future for Drew Gilbert, plus options for the hot corner if Alonso leaves and Mark Vientos shifts to first base.
