About this episode
New York Mets fans are buzzing about Sean Manaea’s drop in velocity during spring training—could this spell trouble for the left-hander?   With his fastball averaging just 88.8 mph, will Manaea find a way to bounce back or risk losing his spot in the starting rotation? Ryan Finkelstein breaks down Manaea’s recent outings, examining pitch command, the effectiveness of his secondary offerings, and the impact of the Mets’ pitching depth.   Key discussion points include Carlos Mendoza’s comments on Manaea’s health. Can Manaea regain his form and solidify his role, or is New York poised for a shake-up?   This episode offers a thorough look at the Mets’ strategy as Opening Day approaches.
