Episode Notes

New York Mets shift focus to 2027 as trade deadline strategy takes center stage. Are blockbuster moves on the horizon, or will key arms like Luke Weaver and Clay Holmes stay put?

Ryan Finkelstein spotlights the Mets’ pursuit of top minor league prospects over positional needs, their creative approach to fortifying a thin farm system, and the challenge of building a contender amid a weak free agent class.  

Key discussions include trade chips—A.J. Minter, Brooks Raley, Luis Robert Jr.—rotation questions surrounding Kodai Senga, and the ongoing infield puzzle beyond Francisco Lindor.  

Plus, Ryan Finkelstein tackles the latest on Lindor and Juan Soto’s relationship, dispelling media speculation about clubhouse chemistry.  

Can the Mets overcome their current struggles and set the stage for a turnaround in 2027?
