Welcome back to A Pod of Their Own, an all-women led Home Run Applesauce podcast where we talk all things Mets, social justice issues in baseball, and normalize female voices in the sports podcasting space.
This week, we begin by discussing the Devin Williams signing, the state of the Mets’ bullpen, and whether Edwin Díaz will end up back in Queens to pair with Williams as a 1-2 closer punch.
Next, we chat about what’s brewing at this week’s Winter Meetings. The Mets haven’t done anything major yet (as of this recording), but there are Mets-related rumors regarding Kyle Schwarber, Pete Alonso, the starting pitching market, Michael King, and more.
We also talk about the realization of Steve Cohen’s Metropolitan Park dream and Bryce Harper’s weird pseudoscientific offseason pursuits.
Finally, we wrap things up with Walk-off Wins, where each of us talks about what’s making us happy this week, baseball-related or otherwise.
