A future with more Mark Canhas

Welcome back to A Pod of Their Own, a show by the women of Amazin’ Avenue where we talk all things Mets, social justice issues in baseball, and normalize female voices in the sports podcasting space. 
This week, we begin by discussing the updates on various injured Mets and the impending return of Max Scherzer to the rotation. We also talk about the 13-pitcher roster rule coming into effect and Tommy Hunter’s return to the major leagues as the feel-good Mets story this week.

We also point to Megan Rapinoe as another example of what LGBTQ+ allyship looks like in sports.
We also discuss the new “no politics” policy being implemented at The Athletic.
