Mets prospect Kevin Parada stops by & trying to make sense of the Mets season | The Mets Pod | SNY
53Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo are back with the latest episode of The Mets Pod presented by Tri-State Cadillac, as the guys are joined by Mets top prospect Kevin Parada for a chat, and Connor and Joe also try to make sense of the Mets sinking season so far. The show starts with an examination of the present, as the guys break down the pitching staff, the overall problems of the team, and debate what the organization should do as the MLB Trade Deadline approaches. Later, there’s a deep dive into the Mailbag with questions answered about Steve Cohen, David Stearns, bullpen usage, and adjusting MLB’s blocking the plate rules. Finally, Connor and Joe turn their eyes to the future by talking with Kevin Parada about getting drafted in the first round, his development so far at the plate and behind it, working with pitchers Blade Tidwell and Tyler Stuart, and his experiences playing in Brooklyn.
