OPPOSITION TERRITORY: New York Mets

On this week’s OPPOSITION TERRITORY pod, we’re diving into the New York Mets and what their upcoming 2025 season may look like as one of the Phillies rivals in the NL East. Juan Soto is slated to bring big results to the Mets’ offense. But how might their pitching hold up this season - both in the starting rotation and the bullpen? This week, Allison McCague from the “A Pod Of Their Own” podcast over at HomerunApplesauce.com joined us for a great discussion!
Topics Allison and Jeff dove into:
- Is there actually a floor for Juan Soto’s offense that we should keep in mind?
- Can Pete Alonso get back to the kind of offense the Mets will need from him?
- The backend of the starting rotation could be a big issue here in 2025 unless the depth steps up.
- The biggest strengths and weaknesses heading into the Mets 2025 season.
All of this and much more during this week’s pregame preview show!
