00:00uh all right so who did the mets fool at the beginning of the season so you know jack on
00:04my
00:04shows last week everyone is asking me and leaning on me asking me the mets gonna be okay i'm like
00:08yeah it's no big deal six in a row seven in a row eight in a row it's like ah
00:12it's gonna be fine
00:12uh yeah i don't know anymore like like jack the braves went through this last april they never
00:17recovered and i'm starting to feel like this is almost impossible for the mets to come all the
00:23way back from that certainly can they win 75 80 games yeah maybe even a little bit more but where's
00:28the indication of that coming i mean yesterday's loss was a disaster conforto with that hit
00:34i don't know what to make of it i just know that no team that's lost 12 in a row
00:38has ever made
00:39baseball's postseason and can i tell you that that was honestly the first time for me this season that
00:46you can clear cut place blame on carlos mendoza for a managerial situation like the x's and o's leading
00:51to the nico horner sacrifice fly nico horner of the cubs is one of the premier bat to ball guys
00:57in
00:58baseball that guy with runners and scoring position is going to get the job done no matter
01:02what why don't you walk him like that was the first time that i really asked questions about
01:05carlos mendoza the manager of the mets but aside from that this roster's just been bad to be totally
01:11honest with you i like it was a restructured roster this offseason and so many people in
01:16december and early january were sitting here saying what is david stearns doing it is a disaster
01:22class of how to reconstruct a roster over an offseason and then we go into spring training
01:26and all of a sudden they have freddie peralta and bichette and louise robert and we're saying you
01:31know what that's pretty darn good offseason good way to reconstruct it we're going from disaster
01:35class to master class and then all of a sudden now with soto out two to three weeks and then
01:40losing 11 in a row we're saying what was that offseason that was terrible this is a what have
01:45you done for me lately game the narrative can change by june if you are going to lose 11 games
01:50in a row it's better to happen early than late it's like the old structure of the 14 playoff
01:55for the two-team bcs uh national championship in college football right if you're going to lose a
02:00game it better come in week two because you have time to build back up against quality opponents
02:05i was listening to the open of sunday night baseball on nbc last night and they were talking
02:11about the phillies who have also struck mind you and jason benetti asked john cruck why should people
02:17not be concerned about what's happening with the philadelphia phillies and cruck effectively said
02:21we have 140 games left that is what the mets can lean on you can also lean on guys not
02:27being hurt
02:28and out for the season or at least significantly impacted you mentioned atlanta last year austin
02:34riley was hurt on and off pretty much the entire year a couple of guys were hurt on and off
02:38pretty
02:38much the entire year acuna missed about 60 or 70 games a year ago so that's not really the case
02:44with
02:44the mets they're going to have soto play 140 130 games they're going to have everybody else assuming
02:49full health play 160 so the roster is still there just nobody's hitting they got to learn how to hit
02:56in 26
