On the latest episode of The Mets Pod presented by Tri-State Cadillac, Connor Rogers and Joe DeMayo welcome Mets VP of Amateur Scouting Kris Gross to the show to recap the team’s selections in the 2024 MLB Draft, and then the guys look ahead to the second half of the season. Leading off, Gross talks about Carson Benge, Jonathan Santucci, Nate Dohm, and many other picks the Mets made in the draft, and also discusses how he came to the Mets and got into scouting. Later, Connor and Joe reveal some other names to know from the later rounds, look back at the wins from the week before, look ahead to ideas for the MLB Trade Deadline, while also hitting on Brandon Sproat in the Futures Game, Pete Alonso in the Home Run Derby, and the return of Kodai Senga to the Mets rotation. The guys then wrap the show by opening the Mailbag to take on questions about prospect JT Schwartz, the future at first base for the organization, and the process behind projecting pitching prospects.
