From Complex To Queens, Episode 298: Oh right, this is a Mets podcast

1 week ago | amazinavenue.com | Lukas Vlahos |Thomas Henderson

Welcome to From Complex to Queens, Home Run Applesauce’s podcast focusing on the Mets’ minor league system. In case you missed it, there was some other notable major league news on Sunday night; we couldn’t help ourselves and spend our first 20 minutes talking Rafael Devers trade. Our conclusion? Having dumb teams in the league makes it more fun, and we’re glad the Mets aren’t one of them (you’ll have to listen to learn which team we decided was the dumb one here).

Welcome to From Complex to Queens, Home Run Applesauce’s podcast focusing on the Mets’ minor league system. It’s cold out there, but in NYC and across every Met affiliate in the area - in other words, it’s a good time to be a St. Lucie Met.

We also quickly run through the Mets’ affiliate rosters and some early season performances.
