Locked On Mets - Daily Podcast On The New York Mets Locked On Podcast Network

The perception is that the New York Mets have to add at least one more starting pitcher this offseason.
Host Ryan Finkelstein examines whether the Mets rotation really needs another addition or if Max Scherzer was enough for them to be set for Opening Day.
Jacob deGrom and Scherzer present more upside than any other duo in baseball, but can the Mets get enough production out of Carlos Carrasco, Taijuan Walker, Tylor Megill and David Peterson to make it through the 2022 season?

After hitting 32 home runs in 113 games, Kyle Schwarber is one of the best sluggers left in free agency.
While the Mets could certainly use his pop in the lineup, does having Robinson Cano on the books prevent them from going after Schwarber?
Host Ryan Finkelstein discusses whether Schwarber can still fit with the Mets and what it would cost to acquire him.

The New York Mets made it clear once free agency started that Marcus Stroman was not a priority for them, as they pursued other free agents like Kevin Gausman and Robbie Ray, before ultimately landing Max Scherzer.
But when Stroman signed with the Cubs, it was for the exact type of contract the Mets based their free agency strategy on, a short-term, big-money deal. If the Mets managed Stroman's free agency better, could they have re-signed him after landing Scherzer?
Host Ryan Finkelstein discusses what went wrong and if the Mets will come to regret not bringing Stro back.

Over the weekend, the New York Mets announced that Glenn Sherlock would be returning to the organization, as he has been hired to be Buck Showalter's bench coach. The longtime coach spent three seasons as the Mets third base coach from 2017 through 2019. What does this hire mean for Showalter's staff in 2022?
Host Ryan Finkelstein discusses the hire and also breaks down the latest news in international free agency, as the Mets signed two of the top prospects available in Simon Juan and Willy Fanas. Ryan talks about what the Mets could have in these two young outfielders and why the Mets farm system is bound to improve greatly over the next few years with the resources that Steve Cohen is pouring into analytics, scouting and player development.
