## Resource

Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo diagnose more losing baseball on the latest episode of The Mets Pod. The guys go long on all of the Mets' problems, from the front office, through the coaching staff, to the entire roster. Who is to blame, why is it happening, what can be done, and will changes soon be made? Connor and Joe also go Down on the Farm to check in on the literal ups and downs of Christian Scott, and the recent promotion of top prospect A.J. Ewing to Triple-A Syracuse. The show wraps up with a Mailbag to answer questions about lack of hitting development, signing veterans to short-term deals, and a fun but also sad scenario for first base.
