Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo drop Episode 5 of The Mets Pod, as Mets pitching coach Jeremy Hefner drops by the podcast! The guys talk to Jeremy all about the combined no-hitter the Mets threw at Citi Field, the impressive work by Edwin Diaz to close it out, and how the coaching staff managed the game as it went along. The crew also covers Hefner’s career overall, his interactions with the various personalities on the pitching staff, how the team incorporates analytics, getting to know Max Scherzer, and what has helped Tylor Megill and Drew Smith make huge improvements so far in 2022. Later in the show, Connor and Joe also discuss the team’s decision to part with Robinson Cano, next steps for a struggling Trevor May, and Mailbag questions about the Mets offense and the upcoming MLB Draft.
