This week, we begin by discussing the Mets’ improved run of play in the month of May, mostly driven by the youth movement, and what it would take to believe again. We also talk about the sacrifices that needed to be made the injury gods to make it happen. Next, we talk about the messy ex-Mets, particularly Edwin Díaz’s cockfighting ring. 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.

A Pod of Their Own, Episode 273: Upgraded from sell to don’t buy
2w ago01:12:41Tap to summarizeWelcome 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 Mets’ play in May, which has been a bit better, but still not good enough. But as we were recording the episode, the news broke that the Mets are shaking things up by promoting AJ Ewing, so we also talked about that pleasant surprise, which saved this from being an even bleaker episode. In the second half of the show, we discuss the extramural activities of a certain former Mets pitcher with a receding hairline, the dismissal of Gabe Alvarez due to harassment allegations, and the glossing over of Bobby Cox’s domestic abuse when discussing his legacy. 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.

A Pod of Their Own, Episode 271: Pathetic, wretched, and unsatisfactory
4w ago00:59:55Tap to summarizeWelcome 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, the Mets snapped their 12-game losing streak only to turn around and start a brand new one in which they got swept by the Rockies, scoring one run total across a doubleheader. In the aftermath of the Red Sox clearing house, we wonder how much longer Carlos Mendoza will keep his job. We also talk about roster and injury updates, including Francisco Lindor’s injury, Christian Scott’s brief appearance in the big leagues in his first start back from Tommy John, the designation of Tommy Pham for assignment, and how lost Kodai Senga continues to look. Our only consolation is that the Phillies are just as bad as the Mets are. With that coping mechanism, we wrapped things up with Walk-off Wins, where each of us talks about what’s making us happy this week, baseball-related or otherwise.
