A Pod of Their Own, Episode 229: PTBNL? Terrible pop time.
Episode Description
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 injuries to Francisco Alvarez and Jeff McNeil and what that means for the Opening Day roster - namely that the Mets probably should go acquire a catcher outside the organization and also that Brett Baty and Luisangel Acuña are both making the team.
We also talk about how the Mets will set up their rotation to begin the season with Clay Holmes named as the Opening Day starter. We also chat about the Spring Breakout game and give our bold predictions for the season.
In our baseball segment this week, we chat about the uncertain future of the Tampa Bay Rays and the upcoming Tokyo Series.
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.
