00:00You and I both spent a lot of time in Port St. Lucie in spring training. I think we both
00:04thought
00:04like the Mets, this team would, they had some explosive possibilities to be bad, but we didn't
00:09think they'd get to bad. And we certainly didn't think they'd get to 17 under 500 by the time you
00:13were in Philly for the All-Star break. You want to sum it up where you think they're at and
00:18what
00:18you think it means moving forward? Yeah, I mean, it's a disaster. No question about that. I mean,
00:23we had Steve Cohen on. He said that David Stearns is staying. But, you know, if you really listen
00:28to the whole thing, you know, he isn't thrilled. He said that he's failing, which, you know,
00:33is a nice way of saying that they are failing together. So it is not working. They are obviously
00:39giving David Stearns this year for sure, I would say, based on how I read the comments. You know,
00:47I know the fans are bloodthirsty. I get it. It's been two bad winters in a row. It was a
00:52bad trade
00:53deadline last year. They need a better trade deadline this year. They need to sell, obviously.
01:02They are terrible. I think if people listen to the show religiously, we had high hopes,
01:10but I think we both said that it could go either way. We felt that the Yankees were,
01:14you know, the Yankees win every year, at least have a winning record. So, you know, it wasn't a
01:19great prediction to say that they're going to be good. We thought the Mets could go either way.
01:24That said, in my predictions, I did have them winning the division. That's not too good. They're
01:28a very bad team. Soto was here alone at the All-Star game. That's the way it should be. If
01:36you
01:36want to look for another bright spot, I mean, it was probably Holmes was great until, unfortunately,
01:42broke his, got his leg broken on a line drive. Weaver has been great as well, but he's a middle
01:48reliever. So they got one All-Star, and that's all they deserved. And Stearns gets an F for this year.
01:56He's going to need an A-plus to turn this around.
