Filling out a Mets roster with Max Scherzer, Jacob deGrom, and maybe Francisco Alvarez?

Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo deliver Episode 14 of The Mets Pod, on the day that Max Scherzer delivers himself back to the Mets. The guys cover the return of Mad Max, as well as the rehab of Jacob deGrom, the continued success of Taijuan Walker, and the recent home run binge for Eduardo Escobar. Later in the show, Connor and Joe talk about the promotion of Francisco Alvarez to Triple-A, and examine the timeline for him to make his major league debut. The guys wrap the show with some MLB Draft chatter (with much more to come), and a Mailbag segment focused on second-half “bounce-back” candidates.
