Episode Notes
Did the New York Mets pay too steep a price for Freddy Peralta—or will moving top prospect Jett Williams haunt their future?
Host Ryan Finkelstein and prospect expert Aram Leighton break down the blockbuster Mets-Brewers trade, weighing the value of arms like Brandon Sproat against the loss of dynamic talents such as Williams.
The show tackles whether Peralta can be New York’s missing ace and how Tobias Myers factors into the big league roster, while questioning if David Stearns made the right call pushing prospects to win now.
The discussion heats up with a head-to-head comparison of Jett Williams and AJ Ewing, diving into advanced metrics, positional value, and each player’s ceiling for the Mets’ future.
Insights on Jacob Reimer, Ryan Clifford, Jack Wenninger, and Carson Benge give listeners a full rundown of the team’s farm system depth.
Plus, rapid-fire predictions on Francisco Alvarez, Brett Baty, and Mark Vientos highlight how the Mets’ young core will shape the upcoming season.
