Home Run Applesauce: A New York Mets podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

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 tenuous hold the Mets have on playoff contention, in part because the Braves cannot be killed. We also discuss Francisco Lindor’s case for NL MVP, whether David Peterson is in fact Good, Francisco Alvarez being ruined by Eric Chavez, Liz Benn leaving the Mets, and more.

Grace is back after a pretty busy Trade Deadline. The Mets made several moves, and Grace breaks them down. She talks both what the Mets got (quite a bit) and what they gave up (not that much). And she talks about the players not only now but in the months and, in certain cases, years to come. Next Grace gets into the rest of the major deadline moves. The good ones, the not so good ones, and the ones that appear to be heading towards possible disaster. And she breaks down what they mean for teams in the playoff hunt and in certain cases, players themselves. Finally, Grace's movie minute is not just a movie, but an experience. 4DX has never been utilized better, and Grace recommends taking advantage of a newly announced rerelease at the end of the month for a very fun time.

Welcome back to A Pod of Their Own, a show by the women of Amazin’ Avenue 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 lack of pitching depth and how the Mets could seriously get a leg up on their competition by signing Dallas Keuchel. Next, we talk about a controversial sign that was displayed in the Wrigley Field press box that was an incredibly tone deaf move by the organization.  We introduced a new segment this week where we answered some emails, one of which suggested a lyric change in “Meet the Mets”. 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.

Welcome to UnforMETable, a new show from Amazin’ Avenue that looks back on less heralded, more obscure, but quintessential Mets players from the past This week, Rob Wolff travels back in time to the late 80s to look at the hyped prospect background and brief Met career of David West.  Relive his Met debut in a rare era of unbridled Met fan optimism until the formerly “untouchable” prospect was deemed very touchable as the 1989 team tried to replace an injured Dwight Gooden for a playoff push, landing West in Minnesota, where he would eventually earn himself the World Series ring we wish he got in 1988.

Welcome back to A Pod of Their Own, a show by the women of Amazin’ Avenue 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 Mets’ hot start, and working out some lingering trauma from the 2018 disaster. (1:00) Next, we each pick “our guy” for 2019 - an undersung Met we love to watch and think will make a big splash. (10:50) And we discuss the incredible article from Newsday about Suzyn Waldman, the harassment she experienced as the first female radio commentator, and how much further we still need to go. It’s a must-read for all sports fans. (19:47) 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.
