Later, the show looks back at London, an overall solid week that was for the Mets, plus the urgency to turn things around before the season becomes a sell-off. Connor and Joe also examine the situation at catcher with Francisco Alvarez coming back, the forthcoming return of Edwin Diaz, and recent moves made by David Stearns and Carlos Mendoza that may be on the margins, but are clearly sending messages for the future of the organization. Finally, the guys wrap things up with more Scoreboard predictions, and a dip into the Mailbag to answer questions about potential Pete Alonso trade returns, the Mets museum at Citi Field, and possible selections for the Mets with the 19th overall pick in the upcoming MLB Draft.

On the latest episode of The Mets Pod presented by Tri-State Cadillac, Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo take stock of the Mets offense, bullpen, and the fate of the season. The guys recap a week where the offense got better, the bullpen got worse, and the Mets continued to barely tread water. Connor and Joe discuss the underperformance of veterans, how the Mets need a strong June to convince the front office not to sell everything in July, the woes of the bullpen, a huge opportunity for Mark Vientos moving forward, and the hopes tied to the return of Francisco Alvarez. The show then does a Mailbag version of Down on the Farm, with questions answered about Mets minor league affiliates in cold-weather locations, pitching prospects Mike Vasil and Dom Hamel, plus lesser-known names Stanley Consuegra and Jack Wenninger. Later, Connor and Joe do another round of bets on The Scoreboard before opening a regular Mailbag to tackle questions about unlucky hitters and what a post trade deadline Mets lineup could look like.
