  1. Mmm, Juan Soto

    13 HR. AGO

    Mmm, Juan Soto

    Grace is back, and so is baseball! In the first couple weeks of spring training, nothing monumental has happened, but Juan Soto has hit a few homers for the Mets already which is a welcome sight. The Mets have also had a few injuries, but Grace argues that it's not quite time to hit the panic button. Next, Grace gives her thoughts and predictions on the above the line Oscar categories. Actress is definitely the most interesting and beguiling, but there are a few other question marks and interesting races elsewhere. Finally, Grace has a movie minute full of lower-key Oscar nominees this year. The top billed, major contenders are (mostly) great, but there are some other gems in the list of films with only a few nominations, and Grace highlights some.

    Vibes by Alex

    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 celebrating the return of Pete Alonso, whose contract is really a win for all sides. We also discuss the return of Ryne Stanek, who is yet another player who mentioned family as a reason for signing with the Mets. We then talk about the unfortunate news that Frankie Montas has a high grade lat strain and will be sidelined for at least 6 to 8 weeks. It is a blow to the rotation, but as we get into, the Mets still have quite a bit of pitching depth to draw from.  We also discuss the state of baseball heading into spring training, particularly in the AL East, which will likely be the most competitive division in the American League with the Red Sox having added significant pieces, including Alex Bregman. Linda also gets her first look at the upsetting visual that is Devin Williams without a beard and we talk a little bit about Marcus Stroman reporting late to spring training.  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.  You can listen or subscribe to all of our wonderful Home Run Applesauce podcasts through Apple Podcasts, where we encourage you to leave a review if you enjoy the show.

    We're (and Pete's) So Back

    Grace is back (after some technical difficulties) With a bit to talk about. She discusses the Pete re-sgining, the Bregman deal, and some other odds and ends before spring training. She also talks about the Hall of Fame voting results and the new Mets jersey. Then, she talks about the Oscar drama of the past few weeks, the tweets of Best Actress nominee Karla Sofía Gascón. There's the crazy tweets, but there's also the dilemma: do you disqualify her and create a slippery slope, or do you leave her be and create the (however miniscule) chance she can get up on stage and accept the Oscar? Finally, Grace does a movie minute highlighting some of her favorite movies that were completely shut out at the Oscars this year. Comedies, dramas, and everything in between, there's plenty of great films from outside the Oscars.

    For the sake of the kids

    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 in the Pete Alonso saga, including the brutally honest comments Steve Cohen made at Amazin’ Day about the negotiations. We also recount our own personal experiences at Amazin’ Day and talk about the A.J. Minter and Ryne Stanek signings. We then discuss accusations against Hall of Famer Mariano Rivera and his wife Clara of covering up child sex abuse.  We also congratulate Rylee Pay for becoming the first full-time female broadcaster in Triple-A. We also talked about the offseason, the current free agent market, and labor issues - what the deal is with Pete Alonso’s free agency, whether the Dodgers are good or bad for baseball, Laura’s 2025 predictions, 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.  You can listen or subscribe to all of our wonderful Home Run Applesauce podcasts through Apple Podcasts, where we encourage you to leave a review if you enjoy the show.
