In this episode of The Three Inning Fan Show, Britt Ghiroli, Senior Writer for The Athletic, joins Kelley Franco to discuss the state of the Mets under Steve Cohen and David Stearns, roster construction, clubhouse chemistry, Juan Soto’s impact, and the pressure of building a contender in New York. Britt also shares her unique insight on the changing role of MLB managers -- in the wake of the Cora and Thomson firings, why some would-be managers might prefer front office jobs in the future, how analytics are reshaping leadership across baseball, and if managers move to front offices, who manages in the dugout.
Britt also shares her incredible accomplishments as a competitive powerlifter and of course…what’s good to eat while watching the ballgame.
