00:00Well, let's go over to another organization that's on the other end of that, Bobby.
00:04David Stearns came out and had a press conference, and he was talking about, boy, we are just not in
00:10a great place.
00:10The New York Mets, the Mets mess.
00:13What should he do as they get closer to the August 3rd trading deadline?
00:17In your opinion, what do the Mets do next?
00:22Well, again, I don't think that that's about talent necessarily, even though it doesn't seem like talent mixes very well.
00:30You know, attitude filters down, and somehow the wrong attitude is getting into that clubhouse.
00:35And no matter what kind of talent you have, you can't overcome a bad attitude.
00:43So you think this is more internal, Bobby, that it needs to have an adjustment when it comes to the
00:48culture in the locker room and inside the clubhouse,
00:51that you need a manager or someone to go in there and change that attitude and culture?
00:57Yeah, I don't know.
00:58Oh, it's the manager.
00:59I don't know if it's a player.
01:01You know, it's an entire feeling.
01:04And that feeling is, it germinates.
01:10You know, it's organic.
01:12It's not implemented by outside forces, unless those outside forces actually put the entire group together.
01:23You know, playing the game isn't about who's hitting a home run and who's throwing 100 miles an hour.
01:29When are we going to start to figure that out?
01:32Look at the Tampa Bay Rays.
01:34What it's about is having guys contribute when they're asked to contribute.
01:40And that's a three-hour sequence during the game.
01:44And, you know, the little things matter.
