## Resource

With Spring Training less than two weeks away, it’s time for a full reality check on the New York Mets. On this episode of Straight Outta Flushing, Dexter Henry is joined by Mets content creator Tony Metro to break down the roster heading into the 2026 season and evaluate whether this offseason truly moved the needle. Dexter & Tony dive into: • Grading the Mets’ offseason • Bo Bichette’s impact on the lineup • Carson Benge’s opportunity in center field • The state of the starting rotation and Freddy Peralta • Bullpen expectations • Biggest risk factors on the roster • How projections view the Mets • What “success” really looks like in 2026 Is this team built to contend or are there still major questions heading into camp?
