Mets survive the West Coast, can they do more than that back at home?

Joe DeMayo and guest co-host Sal Licata deliver the latest episode of The Mets Pod, as the Mets come home from a west coast trip. Sal and Joe discuss the overall state of the team, the stalled rehab of Jorge Polanco, the emergence of Carson Benge, the slight steps forward for Bo Bichette, and the latest makeup of the starting rotation. Later, the guys go Down on the Farm for a status update on 2025 first-round draft pick Mitch Voit, and answer Mailbag questions about the development of A.J. Ewing, the bar for being buyers at the trade deadline, and the potential trade return for Freddy Peralta if the Mets decide to deal him away.
