There’s Mets baseball things happening in Florida, so here’s your Mets fix

Mets pitchers and catchers and more are in action in Port St. Lucie, as spring training is here and Episode 49 of The Mets Pod is ready for baseball. Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo chat with Jeff Bellone of The Mets Fix newsletter for a deep dive into various statistical projections for the 2023 Mets, how the World Baseball Classic will actually affect the preparation for the season, and the competition for playing time at the hot corner and DH. Later, Connor and Joe share their early thoughts about the early sights and sounds of spring training, then wrap the show by unwrapping the Mailbag and taking on questions about confidence in the bullpen, competition for roles on the pitching staff, the success and style of pitching coach Jeremy Hefner, the state of the offense, and which ace starter gets to start on opening day. Be sure to subscribe to The Mets Pod at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.
