Then, Brandon Sproat joins us to talk about throwing to Francisco Alvarez, bouncing back from Triple-A struggles, growing the most talked-about mustache in camp, and how he's staying mentally locked in on his MLB dream. These interviews were recorded in March, but they're even more relevant now—especially with both prospects making noise in the system.

The Mets are taking hit after hit—literally. Big injuries have knocked out key arms but there’s real reason to believe help is on the way.   In this episode, Vito and Jon go live from PC Richard & Son with a full house of Mets fans to talk through it all: the brutal injury to Griffin Canning, the status of Senga and Manaea, and why the bullpen has been running on fumes.   But it’s not all doom and gloom. The guys highlight the wave of exciting prospects who could be on the brink of making a real impact—from Brandon Sproat throwing gas in Triple-A (with Francisco Alvarez behind the plate), to Nolan McLean’s rapid rise, and the names you probably don’t know yet—like Anthony Nunez, Ryan Lambert, and Dillon Ross—who might end up in Queens sooner than anyone expected.   They also dig into why the offense is bound to break out (the Mets have the best hard-hit rate in baseball), what the front office could do at the trade deadline, and which minor league standouts like Jett Williams and A.J. Ewing are setting themselves up to be part of the next great Mets core. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
