1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:01,280
Speaker 1: William Sets.

2
00:00:01,639 --> 00:00:04,680
Speaker 2: Here's the pitch swing on a fly ball to right field.

3
00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:07,400
Speaker 1: Pretty well hit Fraelik back at the wall, he jumps.

4
00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:12,040
Speaker 3: Thanks gone, Hate Hate that paid Alonzo with the most

5
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:17,680
Speaker 3: favorable home run of his career. Let's go yes finally,

6
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:20,680
Speaker 3: Oh my god, it's February fifth when we're recording this.

7
00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 3: Pete Alonzo re signs with the New York Mets two

8
00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:26,239
Speaker 3: year deal fifty four million dollars with an opt out

9
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 3: after the first year. He's getting paid thirty million dollars

10
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:31,200
Speaker 3: in twenty twenty five. And guess what, I don't care.

11
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 3: We got forty home runs back in this lineup to

12
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:35,920
Speaker 3: hit right behind want Soto. James, of course, is in

13
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:38,320
Speaker 3: Vietnam for this one, because there was never a shot

14
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:40,400
Speaker 3: in the world that this news was gonna break when

15
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:42,839
Speaker 3: we were both in New York. James, how is it

16
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 3: feeling in Vietnam waking up to the news.

17
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:48,239
Speaker 4: It's a beautiful morning from Saigon, A super happy Pete's back.

18
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:49,960
Speaker 4: I feel like this news didn't hit me with the punch,

19
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:51,599
Speaker 4: maybe as a lot of Mets fans, because, as I've

20
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:53,159
Speaker 4: said in this podcast, I never wavered.

21
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:54,560
Speaker 2: I always thought for sure he.

22
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,040
Speaker 4: Was coming back at one second. You did have one

23
00:00:57,040 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 4: second we knew the pivot was never a pivot. The

24
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 4: pivot to two Millele reliever and the DH making eight

25
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 4: million dollars is never actually pivot. The away from for

26
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,959
Speaker 4: the Homer first baseman, and lots of credit for everyone. Honestly,

27
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 4: this negotiation for Pete Boris Stern's Cohen because everyone just

28
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,160
Speaker 4: stared at each other until the deal that was okay

29
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 4: with everybody, and Mark Fine stands reporting this deal is

30
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 4: very similar to the ones that Matt Chapman, Blake Snell,

31
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:18,400
Speaker 4: carls Krey have been signed the last few years, the

32
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 4: other Boris clients who stretched out, And I think it's

33
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 4: a really big deal. This was kind of something we

34
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 4: thought the whole time that Pete didn't want to let

35
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:25,640
Speaker 4: this go to the spring training. Pete didn't want to

36
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 4: let this last. He let this last a little bit,

37
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 4: but it's really nothing compared to what those other guys

38
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 4: did into March, which were really really happy it didn't happen.

39
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:34,759
Speaker 4: And I also think it's really just super clear that Pete,

40
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,040
Speaker 4: no matter what which we said the whole time, wanted

41
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 4: to at least definitely absolutely positively.

42
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 2: Be on the Mets. This season is going to be

43
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:42,639
Speaker 2: a chance to be a special season.

44
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 4: He wants to play with one, so though he wants

45
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:45,960
Speaker 4: to get back in the market without the qualifying offer,

46
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 4: this is fucking awesome for everybody.

47
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:49,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm so happy to have the Polar Bear back.

48
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 3: Like I said, I wavered for one second. There was

49
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 3: one one moment where I thought maybe he'd be at

50
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 3: Toronto Blue Jay, and then it went back to he

51
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 3: has to sign back with the Mets. There's nowhere else

52
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 3: that makes sense that is actually going to give him

53
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 3: the money that he wants. I think technically thirty million

54
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 3: dollars next year makes him the highest AAV first baseman

55
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 3: ever for a single season. I think mcgau Cabrera technically

56
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,679
Speaker 3: made thirty one million in twenty fourteen, but he was

57
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:14,919
Speaker 3: playing third base the prior year, but then he played

58
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 3: first base that season. Whatever, he got one of the

59
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 3: highest AAV contracts ever for a first baseman.

60
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 2: That's a check.

61
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 3: I think that's something that he wanted to knock off

62
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 3: his list here in free agency.

63
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 1: I think something that's underrated too. And I'm already going

64
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 1: to just mention this quickly.

65
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 3: This does give both Pete Alonso and Mets the opportunity

66
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 3: to continue to talk throughout the year if let's say

67
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 3: Vlad Junior signs an extension early in spring training or

68
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:38,519
Speaker 3: at any point with the Blue Jays. So I like

69
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:40,119
Speaker 3: that as well, that he has to be in house

70
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 3: if we want to continue to this relationship going further.

71
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 4: And the fact that this was thirty million dollars dollar

72
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 4: deal this year with ten million dollars signing bonus next

73
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 4: year jumps down. I believe Mark Finze said to twenty

74
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 4: four million dollars, twenty two million dollars something like that, that's

75
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,080
Speaker 4: really not that bad all in terms of what you

76
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 4: want for next year. In turn, if you do want

77
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,359
Speaker 4: to negotiate and have a guy again, I've sared my

78
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 4: messag don't want is We're gonna say really quickly. A

79
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 4: big part of this deal was the ability to be

80
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 4: in play via merger Drew your next offseason. And if

81
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,079
Speaker 4: you have pe Alonso won a one year, twenty four

82
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 4: million dollar deal, that's very fine to be an elite

83
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 4: DH or again him to the mix of first base,

84
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 4: him having a one year deal. If you want to

85
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:14,880
Speaker 4: sign another guy to a series long term deal, it

86
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 4: won't stop them at all, And I do think that

87
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,080
Speaker 4: underscored this entire negotiation. I think that was a huge

88
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 4: deal's part of this because that might be a reason

89
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 4: that Pete doesn't want to opt out next year, Like

90
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 4: he might have a great year, but do you want

91
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,080
Speaker 4: to compete with this first baseman who you know the

92
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,640
Speaker 4: team you're currently on also wants that first baseman.

93
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 2: Probably not.

94
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 4: That might not be a good business when you saw

95
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:32,120
Speaker 4: what the market looked like this year for you. So

96
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:33,680
Speaker 4: I don't know what's gonna hapen. I don't know if

97
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 4: this actually will be a one year deal like a

98
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 4: lot of people speculate, but at the end of the day,

99
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 4: two years, fifty four million, like this is a complete

100
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 4: David Searns masterclass. This is exactly what he wanted when

101
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 4: he set out this offseason. It was never going to

102
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 4: be a seven year deal, was never going to be

103
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 4: a five year deal, was never going to be a

104
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 4: four year deal, And turns out was never going to

105
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:49,480
Speaker 4: be a three year deal because pe Alonzo said no

106
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 4: to a three year deal. The Met's gap peep the

107
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 4: option of two or three, and he said no, give

108
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 4: me the two, which I think is also funny because

109
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 4: We said that exactly two weeks ago in this podcast,

110
00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 4: saying that no way Pete wants a three year deal.

111
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 4: He'd rather be a free agent at thirty one, thirty three.

112
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 4: If he has to be a free agent again, if

113
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 4: he's not getting the five, it has to be one

114
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 4: or two. So it's just it was just a complete

115
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 4: staring contest. And I give Mets fans a lot of

116
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 4: credit for dealing with this. This was a hard, difficult negotiation.

117
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 4: It was kind of nuts for a little while. Didn't

118
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 4: again publicly didn't feel like shot Andy Martinez that the

119
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 4: Mets he was gonna come back, the public pivot. The

120
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:19,520
Speaker 4: Mets are moving on without him.

121
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 1: He's over to the off season on the big boys.

122
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 1: He said so too.

123
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 3: They got no Shot signed within hours, said the Mets

124
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 3: were pivoting off Peede Alonso.

125
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,040
Speaker 1: He's back on February fifth, So.

126
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:29,040
Speaker 2: That's a great that's really great.

127
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:32,040
Speaker 4: The second we started respecting Martino, he immediately just disc

128
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 4: earned that respect where he's distrusted again. But it's just

129
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 4: everything feels like it's complete equilibrium.

130
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:38,799
Speaker 2: Back of the world. I feel very safe and comfortable

131
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 2: where this mess roster is.

132
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 3: I'm gonna sleep so well tonight, Like it just feels

133
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,039
Speaker 3: so much better having Pete Alonso on this lineup, because

134
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,920
Speaker 3: now when you look at this lineup one through five,

135
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,360
Speaker 3: one through six, some real real players. Right now, you've

136
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 3: got Francisco Lindor leading off. You got one, so hitting two,

137
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 3: you're probably either gonna go Pete or Viento's hitting three

138
00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:58,040
Speaker 3: and four.

139
00:04:58,160 --> 00:04:59,720
Speaker 1: Those two are gonna be three, four back to back.

140
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 3: Where where it is five Brandon Nimo, six, a combination

141
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 3: of Winkers Starling Marte and then seven, eight nine. You

142
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 3: can go Jeff McNeil, you can go h Francisco Alvarez,

143
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,599
Speaker 3: you can go Jose Sirie, Tyrone Taylor, maybe Ronnie Mauricio,

144
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 3: maybe Luis an Helocunya. Like the Mets now have so

145
00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 3: much it's gonna sound crazy, but like, because we now

146
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 3: know what this roster and lineup looks like and where

147
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 3: guys are playing, we have the flexibility now to get

148
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 3: creative with these middlem field guys with the outfield guys

149
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 3: and start mixing and matching a little bit more.

150
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 1: Because we just added forty home runs back to this lineup.

151
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 4: No now becomes a team with supreme depth, Whereas before

152
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 4: a team would like there's probably one or one ish

153
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:35,280
Speaker 4: spot where we don't exactly know what's going to happen.

154
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:35,960
Speaker 2: That was their base.

155
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 4: Now the biggest question mark in this team, honestly is

156
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 4: if Jeff McNeil can bounce back and if Mark Fiento's

157
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,279
Speaker 4: can actually play the fields, play third base, like that's

158
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,159
Speaker 4: really all we're at down Those are those are a

159
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 4: good spot to be. Those are first world problems where

160
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,040
Speaker 4: before we had third where he had you know, there's

161
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:50,600
Speaker 4: different problems where it's I don't know who's gonna play

162
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 4: their bass, I don't know who's gonna be out of

163
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 4: the power back, the.

164
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:54,719
Speaker 2: Fact that it's f Lindor.

165
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:58,440
Speaker 4: So though Alonzo Vianto's Nemo went through five, it's awesome.

166
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 4: Third best one through five and baseball fourth you.

167
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 3: Had Dodgers one, Braves two and who am im forgetting

168
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 3: who Rangers them? Yeah, Rangers probably are up there as well.

169
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 3: They have a pretty disgusting one. Like I think the

170
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 3: Mets Rangers very comparable in that lineup, and we definitely

171
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:16,840
Speaker 3: have the best player, probably the two best players as well,

172
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:17,840
Speaker 3: out of those lineups.

173
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,359
Speaker 1: So it might even be the Mets ahead of them.

174
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,600
Speaker 4: No, I also wonder now, like, what if the Mets

175
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 4: are actually done, like the seas rumors are still kind

176
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 4: of percolating a little bit. I don't I don't know

177
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 4: if I see them as being realistic at all, but

178
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,440
Speaker 4: I just wonder. I don't know now, because now it

179
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:33,599
Speaker 4: does feel like without Pete, it felt like, all right,

180
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 4: if you get a front lighte pitcher, we go from

181
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 4: you know, like an eighty five one team to an

182
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,280
Speaker 4: eighty eight win team. Now with Pete, I feel like

183
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:39,719
Speaker 4: we just went to maybe an eighty five win to

184
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 4: an eighty eight win team. All the projections of Fangress

185
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 4: came out yesterday. They have the Mets as a huge

186
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:45,919
Speaker 4: spread basically between eighty eight, eighty three and eighty eight wins.

187
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,160
Speaker 4: Playof file, it's form about forty to eighty percent, which

188
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,160
Speaker 4: is basically about where we thought they were. Everything we're

189
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,360
Speaker 4: gonna slipe up now with Pete. But now when you

190
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 4: look at this lineup and you look at the fact

191
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:55,880
Speaker 4: that how many game breakers are in it if you

192
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 4: do get that one guy, that one pitcher, and you

193
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 4: guys heard of our pitching epsode last Price asking about

194
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 4: earlier this week some interesting reactions to that about the

195
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 4: people to calling Lance and Mets hater when related is

196
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 4: just like a just a prospect guy in general, but

197
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 4: just understanding that these pitchering prospects aren't all going to

198
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 4: be aces, and it's stupid to expect them all to be.

199
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 4: But now when you look at this team and you

200
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,960
Speaker 4: look at this roster, you do throw one pitcher pitcher

201
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 4: on top of the lot. Now it's like we can

202
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 4: we can fuck around and be anybody.

203
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, you mentioned the fangrafts projections. Pakoda came out with

204
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 3: their projections a couple of days ago, and as of

205
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 3: right now, before Pete Alonso, they projected the Mets for

206
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 3: eighty eight point seven wins and a playoff percentage of

207
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 3: seventy three point nine percent.

208
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 1: Surely that's going to.

209
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 3: Get bumped up as well tomorrow when they update it

210
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 3: for adding Pete Alonzo to that roster. And you mentioned pitching,

211
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:42,120
Speaker 3: that is that is the last spot I think the

212
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 3: Mets really will even take any looks at right now.

213
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 3: I don't think there's really any reason to be looking

214
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 3: at any other positions offensively or in the bullpen. Maybe

215
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 3: you just take a couple of flyers and some bullpen

216
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 3: guys here and there. But does this make I mean,

217
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 3: Brett Baidy is now a lot more expendable because this

218
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 3: spot's kind of taken. Does this make Ronnie Marie feel

219
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,600
Speaker 3: more expendable? Does it make Luisan Helicunyam works? Does it

220
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 3: make all these different players more expendable? And I think

221
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 3: it does. And I think now that should be Mets

222
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 3: fans and the front office's focus is how can we

223
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 3: take these kind of backup depth players for a guys

224
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 3: Triple A almost MLB ready players and make a trade

225
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 3: to go out and get that front line starter. Because

226
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 3: if we can do that, all of a sudden, you

227
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 3: are looking over at the Dodgers and you're saying you're better,

228
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 3: but we're beatable.

229
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 1: This is a team that we could beat.

230
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 4: I also think a part of it, and we mentioned

231
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 4: it briefly last week, and I think it came out

232
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 4: to a little more fooition over the weekend. I do

233
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 4: think the Mets want to move one of these pictures

234
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:38,600
Speaker 4: with no options, and I think that they know that

235
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,199
Speaker 4: Buddo is probably the most valuable, And there was a

236
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,240
Speaker 4: report that came out over the weekend. I also believe

237
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 4: I was from Pat Rigazo that I think this might

238
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 4: have been the last draw before officially getting back to

239
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:47,600
Speaker 4: the table with Pete. And we know that things were

240
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 4: happening the last few days with Pete where it seemed

241
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 4: like the Mets were kind of throwing a feeler to

242
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:55,560
Speaker 4: the Rays about a picture for Yandi DS. Again, there's

243
00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:57,200
Speaker 4: no data on this, no information on this, there's no

244
00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:58,959
Speaker 4: source on this. But I feel like that picture was

245
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 4: probably Jose Budo because Jose Budo is a good picture.

246
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:02,600
Speaker 4: I think it's none of these a good picture. He's

247
00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 4: established quantity that can start the relief and he doesn't

248
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 4: have a minor league option, and I think that was

249
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,240
Speaker 4: maybe their last shot to do it. But again, now,

250
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:10,680
Speaker 4: I think just having p Alonso having a significant piece

251
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 4: back in it makes every other piece a little bit

252
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 4: more movable. It gives you a little bit more flexibility

253
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 4: on this roster. Like I think a lot of people

254
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 4: are like, nice, the Mets offseason is done.

255
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 2: I think we're still gonna.

256
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,240
Speaker 4: See maybe plenty of small moves here, But I don't

257
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 4: think David Stern is ever done by any any degree,

258
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:25,199
Speaker 4: any length of measure.

259
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:25,440
Speaker 5: Ever.

260
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:27,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean the Mets offense was pretty good last year.

261
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 3: Take that lineup and Atuan Soto, it is really good.

262
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 1: This is good.

263
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 3: This is one of the best Mets lineups that we

264
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 3: have seen in our lifetime. He can't can't really argue

265
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 3: that one there at two thousand and six, but even then,

266
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:41,720
Speaker 3: like didn't have one Soto didn't have didn't. I know,

267
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,960
Speaker 3: you had Carlos Peltron who was on That's pretty good,

268
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 3: I know, but Wan Soto man is.

269
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:47,599
Speaker 1: Different and Pete a.

270
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,280
Speaker 3: Lonzo with the Homers and Francisco and Door like the

271
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 3: Mets might have conservatively four players hit thirty home runs

272
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 3: this year, which is kind of nasty.

273
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:02,760
Speaker 6: Geez yeah, holy shit there, and you like you could

274
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:06,080
Speaker 6: get crazy live if Brandon Nimo was healthy all last

275
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 6: year without the foot stuff, thirty home runs.

276
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 4: I passed that you could have six. I can convince

277
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 4: you we have seven players hit thirty home runs.

278
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:15,959
Speaker 3: WHOA, who's the seventh because I think the sixth is

279
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 3: Francisco Alvarez, right, I thought he was the seventh.

280
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:20,679
Speaker 4: I mean, oh yeah, six, I guess. I guess the

281
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 4: DH spot combined if you give winker and and Marte

282
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 4: combined home runs.

283
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,959
Speaker 3: Yes, combined, maybe, and that would be very aggressive. I

284
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 3: think you're almost more likely Alvarez could do it than them.

285
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm including Alvarez, I said, so, okay, yeah, of course,

286
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 4: but I think that that's where this lineup is now

287
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 4: and now again. It takes the pressure off everybody in

288
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 4: this line but takes tons of pressure off Fiano's. That

289
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:40,839
Speaker 4: was a concern, so much pressure I have going into

290
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:42,960
Speaker 4: the seasons and as inside Pete where it's like, oh shit, now,

291
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:44,920
Speaker 4: Mark Fiento's has to be like the protection for Solo,

292
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:46,559
Speaker 4: like the other power hitter. Now he doesn't have to

293
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 4: be that anymore. He could just kind of keep growing

294
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 4: as he's growing again. I think a lot of people

295
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 4: with pressure on Jesse Winker to be like he's our

296
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,160
Speaker 4: new dhe making seven million dollars this year.

297
00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:54,360
Speaker 2: Team used as a part time player.

298
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 4: It's like, let's he starts cold, he's getting cut and

299
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,079
Speaker 4: it was not getting cut. He definitely will be in

300
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 4: the lineup less often like Gallery for squal for is

301
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 4: this is I'm not gonna say it's a pivotal season.

302
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna say's a make or break season for him,

303
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 4: but it's a season we really want to see some growth.

304
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 4: It's a prescision changer totally because like last year, there

305
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 4: was injuries. Last year there was some mental struggles. He

306
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 4: was open about both of those things. How the effected

307
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 4: this game, that's totally fine. Like you're a twenty two

308
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:17,680
Speaker 4: year old catcher, you could take them all again, but

309
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:19,720
Speaker 4: this is a season where you have to you have

310
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 4: to start playing things together. Same with the guy Jeff McNeil,

311
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 4: who last year was bouncing back hard in the second half,

312
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 4: kind of helped the Mets get started on their hot

313
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 4: streak that carried them all the way through October, and

314
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 4: then he got hurt. He was dealing with an injury

315
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 4: early in the season. He ends the season with injury

316
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,560
Speaker 4: as well. It's like everyone gets to take a little

317
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:35,200
Speaker 4: bit of a break now because this is someone that

318
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,520
Speaker 4: is so reliable that we can bank on, that's a

319
00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 4: proven commodity and that we have and we trust and

320
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 4: we love and we appreciate and could be back on

321
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:41,840
Speaker 4: this team.

322
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 2: It's fucking awesome.

323
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 3: I'm just really glad that we haven't seen petere Lonso's

324
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 3: last at bad As the New York Met yet either.

325
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:48,680
Speaker 1: That was like such a bizarre feeling being at some

326
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:49,120
Speaker 1: of those games.

327
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 3: We're like, man, this could be the last time that

328
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,080
Speaker 3: he ever takes in that bat and city field, and.

329
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 1: We don't have that anymore. We got at least one

330
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 1: more year.

331
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 2: Well, I mean I was there.

332
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 4: That was the first at bad in the Dodgers series,

333
00:11:58,160 --> 00:11:59,920
Speaker 4: and he got the standing ovation that he socked it

334
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 4: to run home, and he kept that series going for

335
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 4: another few days, kept that fun going.

336
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 2: That was honestly one of the more fun Mets games,

337
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:05,320
Speaker 2: and went to this.

338
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:06,800
Speaker 4: Year because it felt like all hope was lost and the

339
00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:08,320
Speaker 4: Mets came out and put up on twelve runs and

340
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,040
Speaker 4: three innings. But it just, I don't know, it feels

341
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 4: like this, I don't know, like I'm trying not to

342
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 4: get too excited about the way last year ended and

343
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:17,559
Speaker 4: like all the feelings that were associated with all the

344
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,080
Speaker 4: grims bullshit and like everything, But it feels like there's

345
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:23,319
Speaker 4: some I don't know, get like get little saucer for

346
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:24,800
Speaker 4: a second. Feels like a little some special kind of

347
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:26,120
Speaker 4: got built here, and now it feels like you just

348
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 4: threw wan So on top of it. It's like, let's

349
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:29,440
Speaker 4: fucking play some baseball.

350
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 3: You're telling me we took one of the five best

351
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:32,839
Speaker 3: players in baseball and added to a Rosso was in

352
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,200
Speaker 3: the NLCS last year. I feel pretty good about that.

353
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 3: I mean again, the lineup, like I feel so incredibly

354
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 3: commion about. Now it's all about can they do it

355
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,840
Speaker 3: again on the pitching side, can they wave that magic

356
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:46,000
Speaker 3: wand and say, Frankie Montas good, Clay Holmes, you're a

357
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 3: starter now, Like, can can they do it again?

358
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 1: I believe they can?

359
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:51,400
Speaker 4: I mean truly again, Like that was becoming more of

360
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 4: this an episode episode right in the Penis reaction. But

361
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,719
Speaker 4: like the pitching was good last year, CLIs Sanga didn't pitch,

362
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,280
Speaker 4: and David Peterson you wound up being kind of the

363
00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,439
Speaker 4: best pitcher only pitched half a season. So then you

364
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:01,640
Speaker 4: figured you can get three hundred and fifty innings that

365
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 4: have those two guys combined, you could possibly get more

366
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 4: of second half of an Ayah. And then all that

367
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 4: has to happen is is Frankie Montess and Clay Holmes

368
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,439
Speaker 4: have to just be Severino. Yeah kind of right, Like

369
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 4: that's kind of it because five is rotating most of

370
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,520
Speaker 4: you anyway, and Kantana, like those two guys have to

371
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:17,720
Speaker 4: be Sevrino Katana, which are two guys with eras around

372
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 4: fours for one hundred and sixty hundred seventy innings. That's

373
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:22,959
Speaker 4: not again, that's not to me, that's not a crazy upshot.

374
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 4: I know it's still a lot of downside his pitching staff.

375
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 4: I think the downside is pitching staff is like if

376
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:29,559
Speaker 4: you get matchup with a crazy playoff series against a

377
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 4: crazy good team like the Dodgers exposing him last year.

378
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:33,439
Speaker 4: But I really hope and I think that the way

379
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:35,920
Speaker 4: this poaching staff is insulated themselves and get really well

380
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 4: against the regular season, that we can be in these series.

381
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:39,679
Speaker 4: We can be in these games, you could beat up

382
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 4: on bad teams, and we can be in the fucking

383
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 4: division race all the way until the end. Like, fuck

384
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 4: the Braves. Take that fucking team and never single one

385
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:47,440
Speaker 4: of these projection systems. It was the Mets and Phillies

386
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:48,719
Speaker 4: neck and neck, and it was the Braves about five

387
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,360
Speaker 4: games ahead. They're a really good team. I respect the Braves.

388
00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 4: Fuck them, Let's go take this. We now have the

389
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:55,439
Speaker 4: best player between these two teams. I will say that

390
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:57,600
Speaker 4: fuck around thee junior until they go, shure we do. Yeah,

391
00:13:57,640 --> 00:13:59,680
Speaker 4: But I'm just saying, like, let's fucking go, Like, let's

392
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:03,440
Speaker 4: place in baseball, keep slaying dragons, like, let we beat

393
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:04,839
Speaker 4: the Braves the end of the season last year, but

394
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:06,439
Speaker 4: I don't think it necessarily felt like that dragon was

395
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 4: slain because most of their team wasn't playing. We slayed

396
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:12,680
Speaker 4: the Phillies dragon. Let's go beat dragon Sleighers again. Let's

397
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:14,720
Speaker 4: fuck the Braves up, Let's win the division. Let's go

398
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 4: play some baseball so it pitches catchers point in less

399
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:18,720
Speaker 4: than week. I'm so fucking excited for this.

400
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 1: I can't wait for Opening Day. I'm so excited.

401
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 3: I was already like a couple of days ago, talking

402
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 3: with some friends and just like man, I can't wait

403
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 3: for baseball to be back. Now you add Pete Alonso

404
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 3: back to this New York Mets team, I cannot wait.

405
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:30,040
Speaker 1: For Opening Day.

406
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 3: It's gonna be so much fun, so exciting, and this

407
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:36,160
Speaker 3: Mets team should be really good this year, really good.

408
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 4: And again, just to wrap up on Pete, like happy

409
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 4: for him he's able to get his money. I do

410
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:43,480
Speaker 4: think that he might wind the firing Scott Boris, because wow,

411
00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 4: this definitely did tearn out the way he wanted. And

412
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:47,400
Speaker 4: I'm sure that he thinks every single night when he

413
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:49,280
Speaker 4: puts his head on the Pillow, Like, damn, I could

414
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 4: have signed that month, that monster deal a year and

415
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 4: a half ago and this, but I would be feeling

416
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,680
Speaker 4: a lot better right now. And also, one last shout

417
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 4: out to the Wolpons. One thing they did that like

418
00:14:57,560 --> 00:14:59,520
Speaker 4: won the core of the public approval was let Pi

419
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:02,520
Speaker 4: Alonso play Opening Day in twenty nineteen. Because he got

420
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 4: those extra two weeks of baseball. He got to break

421
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:06,840
Speaker 4: the rookie home run record and we took that from

422
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 4: Aaron Judge. But because he played his extra two weeks

423
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:10,160
Speaker 4: of baseball, we all just had to deal with this

424
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 4: shit for the last four months.

425
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 2: Which sucked ass. That was the party.

426
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 4: Then get from the Wopon's Accidentally doing something nice wound

427
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:17,480
Speaker 4: up being something that was horrible. We just had Peater

428
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 4: for twenty five million dollars for a one year deal

429
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 4: this year without negotiating ever. That would have been super fun.

430
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:24,520
Speaker 4: But you know what, we're all tougher for it. Mets

431
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:26,280
Speaker 4: fans shaty you guys for dealing with this. There was

432
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 4: a lot of patients, some bad comments. We won't talk

433
00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:29,280
Speaker 4: about those.

434
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:30,480
Speaker 1: No, we don't care anymore.

435
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 4: It doesn't matter. A lot of pagents for Mets fans.

436
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:34,160
Speaker 4: This guy's back. Everything's really fucking cool.

437
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:35,320
