Ep #92 - The Rising Apple Report: 21 Days till Pitchers and Catchers

Let the countdown begin!

Pitchers and catchers report to camp on February 19th, and the first full squad workout is scheduled for February 26th.

Until then, it's time to heave another log into the old Hot Stove.

Michael Lecolant will be hosting tonight's 92nd episode of the Rising Apple Report.  Joining him from the RA staff will be the Converted Mets Fan, Sam Maxwell.

Their guests will include Stephen Keane from KranepoolSociety.com, and John Pielli, host of the Passed Ball Show at JohnPielli.com.

Sandy Alderson still has work to do.  That will kick off the evening's discussion.

If his mind is truly focused on contending in 2015, he'd still be trying to resolve an unsatisfactory situation at shortstop, pursuing another established left-hander for the bullpen, and avoiding a logjam in the starting rotation.

They'll also discuss the appearance of six Mets on Keith Law's top 100 prospects list, and the interview that took place between Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports and Commissioner Robert Manfred regarding the Wilpons financial condition.

The show kicks off at 9:00pm (EST) sharp.

As always, your participation is most welcome.  Please call the Rising Apple Report at 646-929-0337.
