Welcome to From Complex to Queens, Home Run Applesauce’s podcast focusing on the Mets’ minor league system. Because it is the anniversary of Bernie Madoff’s arrest, Steve, Lukas, and Ken start off the show by discussing some of the biggest contract heists in Promote, Extend, Trade.
Following that, they go over the results of the 2025 MLB Draft lottery, which took place on Tuesday, December 10 at the MLB Winter Meetings. The Washington Nationals will be making the number 1 overall pick, while the Mets will be making their first selection with the 38 overall pick.
After, the guys discuss who the Mets gained and lost in the major league and minor league portions of the annual Rule 5 Draft.
