The New York Mets went all in this offseason, and the roster Steve Cohen & co built is a World Series contender. Juan Soto, Francisco Lindor, Bo Bichette at third base, Marcus Semien at second, and a six-man rotation headlined by Freddy Peralta and Nolan McClean. But talent on paper doesn't always translate. Lindor is working his way back from hamate bone surgery. Bichette is learning a brand new position. Francisco Alvarez needs to prove last year's second-half surge was real. And the right field job is still up for grabs with top prospect Carson Benge making a serious push to crack the Opening Day roster. We break down the rotation depth, the bullpen questions, whether this lineup can stay healthy long enough to live up to the hype, and if the Mets are the real favorites in the NL East or if they're one injury away from it all falling apart.🔒 Locked In Baseball — New episodes every week📲 Follow us on Instagram & TikTok: @lockedinbaseballmedia🎧 Available on all podcast platforms#MLB #Mets #NewYork #JuanSoto #FranciscoLindor #FreddyPeralta #BoBichette #CarsonBenge #Baseball #MLBPreview #SpringTraining #LockedInBaseball

The Toronto Blue Jays shocked the baseball world last year with a run all the way to the World Series, and now the question everyone is asking is can they get back? Toronto's rotation is one of the deepest in the American League, but will it hold up over a full season or are we due for some regression? We dive into whether losing Bo Bichette will come back to haunt this team, if breakout arm Trey Yesavage can keep up his dominant run or if a step back is coming, and whether the dreaded World Series hangover is a real concern for a club that went on a magical ride last season. The pieces are still there for the Blue Jays to compete, but the margin for error in the AL East is razor thin. We break down the roster, the rotation, and whether Toronto is built to sustain success or if 2025 was lightning in a bottle.🔒 Locked In Baseball — New episodes every week📲 Follow us on Instagram & TikTok: @lockedinbaseballmedia🎧 Available on all podcast platforms#MLB #BlueJays #Toronto #BoBichette #CarsonYesavage #Baseball #MLBPreview #SpringTraining #LockedInBaseball

The Atlanta Braves have been one of the most dominant teams in baseball over the last half decade, but 2025 was a season from hell. Injuries decimated the roster from start to finish, derailing what should have been another deep October run. Now heading into 2026, the question is whether Atlanta can finally stay healthy, and early returns from spring training aren't exactly encouraging, with injuries already popping up again. When this team is whole, few lineups in baseball can match a core built around Ronald Acuña Jr., Matt Olson, and a solid rotation. But can the Braves actually keep it together for a full 162? We break down the roster, the rotation, the injury concerns, and whether this is the year Atlanta bounces back or if the window is starting to close.🔒 Locked In Baseball — New episodes every week📲 Follow us on Instagram & TikTok: @lockedinbaseballmedia🎧 Available on all podcast platforms#MLB #Braves #Atlanta #RonaldAcuña #MattOlson #SpencerStrider #Baseball #MLBPreview #SpringTraining #LockedInBaseball
