00:00Do you respect that Mets team, uh, and how dangerous they've started looking in terms

00:08of the playoffs?

00:09Well, I think you have to, Scotty, considering they started off the year on six, they would

00:14double digit games under the 500 mark.

00:16And they played brilliantly in June and kind of put themselves in a position to be in position.

00:22Now I'd be a little concerned about the bats since the all-star break.

00:27They've been very feast or famine.

00:29You see him go score 10, 11 runs, and then you see him score one or two runs.

00:34They had that terrible series against Anaheim, give them a lot of credit.

00:37They had a fly to St. Louis, weird travel, bizarre situation.

00:42And you get the brilliant game out of Sean Mania.

00:45You're going to Colorado this week, Scotty, with the schedule they have coming up at the

00:49end of this month, where they're going to get San Diego, where they're going to get

00:52Arizona.

00:53You can't mess around with a team like the Colorado Rockies.

00:56You got to score consistently in these games.

00:58And I think that will be the determining factor in whether or not the Mets are a playoff

01:03team.

01:04I don't love their rotation.

01:05It's just not deep enough.

01:07Their bullpen kind of is what it is.

01:09Can they do it consistently offensively?

01:12Not even to the level they were in June, but close to that.

01:15If the answer is yes, I think they're playing playoff baseball.
