Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo drop the latest episode of The Mets Pod presented by Tri-State Cadillac, as the Mets bring Adam Ottavino back to the bullpen, and the offseason starts to wind down. Connor and Joe look at other relief pitchers the team might still sign in free agency, and start to accept the idea that the Mets are unlikely to use free agency to sign a new DH. The guys go long on the idea of Mark Vientos getting a real long look as the designated hitter in 2024, before going down on the farm to see when offense might come to the Mets from the likes of position prospects Drew Gilbert, Luisangel Acuna, and Jett Williams. Finally, the show opens the Mailbag for questions about bounce-back season candidates, pitchers holding runners, more one-year deals for relievers, and the “quiet” offseason across all of MLB.
