Ep. 95 - Where's a Southpaw When You Need One?!

The Rising Apple Report rolls in on a weekend to discuss all things New York Mets! Sam Maxwell hosts, with Site Editor Danny Abriano joining him for the 95th Episode!

The lefty situation, or lack thereof, has dominated the chatter the last few days, with Josh Edgin having to decide between rehab and Tommy John Surgery and the rest of the options in camp now performing up to par. Many Mets fans believe this could have been avoided, though Sandy claims there was not "right fit" out there. We'll discuss whether or not he could have done more to shore this issue up.

Zack Wheeler has been scratched from his next start with elbow tendonitis. We'll talk about how concerned we should be regarding the right-handed pitcher, whose success is such a key to this next Mets era.

Players have been singing the praises of new hitting coach Kevin Long, especially his old Yankee partner Curtis Granderson. We'll discuss his impact so far, and whether we can really tell how positive of an impact he has had this early in the year.

So, join us for the newest edition of the Rising Apple Report!
