00:00I mean, to me, the Mets are without a doubt the biggest loser of the season to me to have
00:05the second highest payroll in Major League Baseball and have to trade all of these players, Joe, at the deadline.
00:11And make no mistake about it, they wish they could trade more.
00:14They wish they could trade more.
00:16They wish they could trade Bichette if they could.
00:18They can't.
00:19They wish they could probably trade one of Lindor or Soto.
00:22They can't.
00:24Polanco maybe was the worst signing of all, Joe.
00:27I think he's owed for 27 or something like that.
00:30I mean, like, the way they, and Luis, oh, Luis Robert hasn't been traded yet.
00:35No one even wants him, probably, Joe.
00:36You know, like, the Mets are probably going to have to send all of Robert's money to somebody else in
00:40the next five minutes just to get anything back.
00:43I mean, it's a disaster of a team and lifeless team, too.
00:48I mean, I don't know if you were watching Sunday's game.
00:50How many times, Joe, did they have second and third or bases loaded and just swinging the hit home runs?
00:56Like, just put the ball in play and score a run.
00:58That's a team that's looking to go golfing in a month and a half or two months.
01:04So I have to give the big L to the Mets this season because they could have never imagined them
01:09being sellers, let alone selling off the entire team.
01:13And, Joe, in the end, did they really get a lot back for any of these guys that they traded?
01:18Probably not.
01:19Probably not.
01:20I mean, these were not great players.
01:21These were, I mean, they're going to do okay, and they're going to get a couple double A and single
01:26A guys back.
01:27And Stearns is really good with that.
01:28So I'm sure that he ended up doing well.
01:30But very dismal, disappointing season for them.
01:34Who's going to a Mets game in August and September now?
