On the latest episode of The Mets Pod presented by Tri-State Cadillac, Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo have the perfect diversion from the struggling Mets - an exclusive interview with Mets legend David Wright! The guys talk to Number Five about stories from his number retirement day, behind the scenes tales from the production of his SNY documentary, the 2015 trade deadline, his thoughts on the current team, his choice of the best Mets uniform ever, and all the details of the Battle of the Badges Game between the NYPD and FDNY that David is hosting at Citi Field on Sunday August 17th. Later, Connor and Joe dive down deep (and low) to talk about the current mess that is the Mets, including the pitching problems, the hitting problems, and all the other problems. The show also goes Down on the Farm to reveal what’s behind the recent success of Brandon Sproat, and opens up a loud Mailbag to let the listeners let it all out as well. Be sure to subscribe to The Mets Pod at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.
