00:00Is it the manager? Is it the GM? Is it the owner? Is it the players?
00:05What have you seen during this 11-game losing streak for the Mets?
00:09Well, I think the mistakes, generally the big ones, were made above Mendoza at the front office level.
00:16I do think that generally the general managers have a bigger imprint on teams than managers do.
00:22And in this case, we're talking about a team that not only has lost 11 games in a row,
00:25they've been outscored something like 62 to 20, something like 3 to 1.
00:30You know, the other team has scored three times the number of runs.
00:33So right now, this is not a look like a very talented team.
00:37Doesn't look like a well-constructed roster.
00:40And obviously the Soto injury, that's obviously a negative.
00:44But, you know, all of the beliefs that they had early seem to be falling flat,
00:49that Semien would bounce back offensively,
00:52that Williams and Weaver would do better with the Mets than they did with the Yankees,
00:56that anybody, not that anybody could play in New York,
00:59but that the adjustment wasn't going to be this enormous.
01:02There just seemed to be a lot of front office decisions
01:05that seemed to be falling flat at this moment.
01:07And right now, I would say that David Stearns is the main culprit for what's gone on so far.
