Mets Offseason Preview: Juan Soto, Pete Alonso and more ways to build the 2025 team

The Mets Pod

On the offseason preview episode of The Mets Pod presented by Tri-State Cadillac, Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo kick off a stretch of shows that will be there every step of the way covering the construction of the 2025 New York Mets. The guys start things off by going through the current players on the team that face free agency or team option decisions, including a long talk about the long-awaited market for Pete Alonso. Later, Connor and Joe go Down on the Farm to discuss prospects that can help as soon as next season, chat about the coaching staff, and then drop some interesting trade ideas that could be options for Mets president of baseball ops David Stearns to pursue. Finally, the show wraps with free agency and the conversation that everyone has been waiting for, Juan Soto, and the pitch that Soto is the true target that owner Steve Cohen has been “waiting for.” Be sure to subscribe to The Mets Pod at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.
