Welcome back to A Pod of Their Own, an all-women led Home Run Applesauce podcast where we talk all things Mets, social justice issues in baseball, and normalize female voices in the sports podcasting space.
This week, we begin by discussing the latest Juan Soto rumors and are giddy with anticipation that we are approximately a week away from this all being over - for better or for worse.
We discuss the moves the Mets have actually made, including signing Frankie Montas and trading for José Siri, the latter of which we have some misgivings about.
We also talk about Jared Porter’s first public comments about the sexual misconduct that led to his firing by the Mets, the fact that your team can sign contracts with deferred money just like the Dodgers, Francisco Lindor continuing to be underrated, and more.
Finally, we wrap things up with Walk-off Wins, where each of us talks about what’s making us happy this week, baseball-related or otherwise.
