A brand-new episode of The Mets Pod, sponsored by Tri-State Cadillac, is released by Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo as the Mets and MLB continue to follow Yoshinobu Yamamoto’s lead.
As Yamamoto’s decision looms and threatens to topple the dominoes for the remainder of the offseason, Connor and Joe discuss the latest developments in their pursuit of the star pitcher from Japan. The guys discuss money, having dinner at Steve Cohen’s house, what the Yankees and other teams have to offer, when they think the news will be released, and their expectations for the terms of the contract.
Later, the show calls in to the bullpen to talk about Yohan Ramirez’s addition and David Stearns’ overall relief pitching approach thus far. At last, Connor and Joe open the Mailbag to address queries regarding Brandon Woodruff, other free agents’ multi-year contracts, and the general craze surrounding Yamamoto’s free agency.
