WEBVTT - Mets Destroyed by Phillies, Freddy Peralta Awful, David Peterson Disaster | 579 0:00:09.039 --> 0:00:09.479 What Is Up? 0:00:09.480 --> 0:00:11.480 Mets fans, Welcome back to another episode of the Mets 0:00:11.560 --> 0:00:15.080 Up Podcast. Mets did not sweep the Phillies, not back 0:00:15.120 --> 0:00:19.279 in They lost two of three, and it's just so bad. 0:00:19.440 --> 0:00:22.360 It's so so bad. We tried to be positive and 0:00:23.160 --> 0:00:26.320 didn't work. Didn't work at all. No, the positivity, it's 0:00:26.360 --> 0:00:28.040 only for the next It's not for the New York Mets. 0:00:28.080 --> 0:00:29.560 We won't be talking about the next in this episode, 0:00:29.560 --> 0:00:31.200 as much as I'd love too. It's gonna be all Mets. 0:00:31.720 --> 0:00:35.199 David Peterson, Freddie Peralta. Remember remember when we won Game 0:00:35.240 --> 0:00:37.040 one on Thursday and then had an off day? I 0:00:37.080 --> 0:00:39.960 mean then the MLB had the coolest down the World Cup. 0:00:39.960 --> 0:00:42.440 Didn't want to see the Mets get hot, because boy, 0:00:42.479 --> 0:00:44.320 oh boy, did they do the opposite of get hot. 0:00:44.320 --> 0:00:46.760 They played some really awful baseball to end the series 0:00:46.800 --> 0:00:49.120 in Philadelphia.

James looking at the notes. 0:01:06.760 --> 0:01:09.040 A lot of ass and not the good kind. It's 0:01:09.080 --> 0:01:10.240 just a lot of ass. 0:01:10.200 --> 0:01:12.959 No, lots of negativity. This is one of those two 0:01:13.000 --> 0:01:16.959 game stretches where you watch your favorite team play baseball. 0:01:17.120 --> 0:01:18.760 You know they don't belong on the field to the 0:01:18.760 --> 0:01:20.959 team on the other side of them. And that's a 0:01:21.000 --> 0:01:23.399 team that just got hot, just got over five hundred, 0:01:23.440 --> 0:01:25.120 still a very good team in the Phillies. But this 0:01:25.200 --> 0:01:28.480 is you weren't even competitive in these two games. You 0:01:28.600 --> 0:01:31.319 had theoretically your best or second best pitcher on the 0:01:31.319 --> 0:01:33.319 mound in one of them, and you couldn't even sniff 0:01:33.319 --> 0:01:35.480 the other team. Again, you were going up against two aces, 0:01:35.480 --> 0:01:37.520 two of the five to the three or four best 0:01:37.560 --> 0:01:40.680 pitchers in the entire National League. You didn't have a 0:01:40.760 --> 0:01:42.880 chance for a second in either of these games on 0:01:42.920 --> 0:01:45.800 Saturday or Sunday, not even a moment. No, it's pretty impossible. 0:01:45.840 --> 0:01:48.760 When Freddy Prault comes out the gate and just gives 0:01:48.840 --> 0:01:52.040 up a bomb to Bryce Harper, gets absolutely tattooed. Two 0:01:52.040 --> 0:01:54.800 and two thirds innings, ten hits, ten earned runs. It's 0:01:54.800 --> 0:01:57.680 gotta be one of the worst pitching performances of his career, 0:01:57.680 --> 0:01:59.560 one of the worst pitching performances we've seen for the 0:01:59.600 --> 0:02:01.000 Mets in quite some time. 0:02:01.240 --> 0:02:03.400 That was the worst game of his career, definitely the 0:02:03.400 --> 0:02:07.680 worst game of his career. Runs. He drives me fucking crazy. 0:02:07.720 --> 0:02:10.200 I'm sure Freddy's a great guy, but he does not 0:02:10.280 --> 0:02:13.080 got the fucking balls or the dog to pitch for 0:02:13.120 --> 0:02:15.359 the New York Mets, which sounds insane because the Mets 0:02:15.400 --> 0:02:17.680 aren't even a playoff team, so there's no pressure whatsoever. 0:02:17.720 --> 0:02:20.040 They should be Freddy Perltz should be auditioning for every 0:02:20.040 --> 0:02:22.480 team in Major League Baseball and hopefully a team that's 0:02:22.520 --> 0:02:25.200 good wants him. Who's who's gonna be trading for this guy? 0:02:25.200 --> 0:02:27.840 He's he's double fucking us. He's keeping us out of 0:02:27.840 --> 0:02:30.600 the game with the standings. And then he said, oh, 0:02:30.600 --> 0:02:32.320 by the way, you know how you're gonna trade me 0:02:32.360 --> 0:02:34.480 because we're out of it because partially I've been pitching 0:02:34.520 --> 0:02:36.760 like dog shit this year. Well, it's gonna get even worse, 0:02:36.919 --> 0:02:38.520 so you're gonna get even less back. 0:02:38.960 --> 0:02:39.520 It's gonna go. 0:02:39.720 --> 0:02:41.880 David Stearns, I don't know how he's done it, but 0:02:41.919 --> 0:02:44.239 the trades on paper feel so good, and they have 0:02:44.400 --> 0:02:48.840 all magnificently been disasters, absolute disasters. 0:02:49.000 --> 0:02:51.440 Wasscar Brass Bond's the best trade he ever made, one 0:02:51.440 --> 0:02:53.560 of the best trades anyone's ever made. But that's also 0:02:53.600 --> 0:02:55.720 why I don't know, because there's so much there's so 0:02:55.840 --> 0:02:58.480 much talk in Mets world baseball media, everything about the 0:02:58.560 --> 0:03:00.320 job of David Starns and where this he may is, 0:03:00.360 --> 0:03:03.160 where this team's going, all of that, it's very hard 0:03:03.360 --> 0:03:05.720 to blame the guy for acquiring Freddie Pralton. Freddy Prawltz 0:03:05.760 --> 0:03:07.320 decides to pitch by far the worst he ever has 0:03:07.360 --> 0:03:09.399 in his career, so much the conundrum've been saying about 0:03:09.400 --> 0:03:11.640 Boba Schett, where that one even looked worse on paper 0:03:11.680 --> 0:03:14.240 than acquiring Freddie Peralta. Still for the Packers, the Met 0:03:14.240 --> 0:03:16.079 gave up with Freddy Perlta. I still didn't even feel 0:03:16.080 --> 0:03:18.560 bad about the trade. Again from a process standpoint, But 0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:21.360 all you could do is put these guys in the 0:03:21.360 --> 0:03:22.720 team together and hope they can go out and play, 0:03:22.800 --> 0:03:26.120 especially Freddy Peralta, where everything is is so much worse 0:03:26.160 --> 0:03:28.440 this year, way worse. It's so much worse. And again 0:03:28.440 --> 0:03:32.239 he wasn't even pitching that poorly until this most recent start, 0:03:32.360 --> 0:03:34.440 of course, like his era was still in the low 0:03:34.480 --> 0:03:38.120 for his high threes. Now it's like, yeah, Anthony Como 0:03:38.200 --> 0:03:39.760 has been running with the line a few times that 0:03:39.800 --> 0:03:42.680 he has I think the fifty eighth highest era of 0:03:42.720 --> 0:03:45.880 sixty five or sixty six qualified us good qualified pitchers. 0:03:45.920 --> 0:03:47.839 Now it's really good. But then even just like when 0:03:47.840 --> 0:03:49.320 you look under the hood, like it's easy to be 0:03:50.200 --> 0:03:52.360 it's easy to take the stance like, Okay, he will 0:03:52.400 --> 0:03:54.000 not continue to be this bad, because of course he 0:03:54.040 --> 0:03:56.720 can't continue to be this bad. But this is frustrating 0:03:56.720 --> 0:03:58.480 that the guy like Freddie drops his arm angle. He's 0:03:58.480 --> 0:04:00.840 getting slightly different movement in all of his pitches. The 0:04:00.840 --> 0:04:02.840 fastball has a little bit less ride, way less up 0:04:02.920 --> 0:04:05.880 cut on it, and nothing's performing as well. And again 0:04:05.880 --> 0:04:07.720 I don't even feel like going deep into Freddie Prolton 0:04:07.800 --> 0:04:10.320 numbers on this, but you're watching pitching like, oh, that's 0:04:10.320 --> 0:04:12.400 a guy who just not doesn't look like he's equipped 0:04:12.400 --> 0:04:13.680 to get after it right now. 0:04:13.840 --> 0:04:16.039 No, he's not someone who is ready to be a 0:04:16.040 --> 0:04:18.360 major league pitcher. And there's a lot of guys on 0:04:18.400 --> 0:04:20.960 this roster who are not capable of being major league 0:04:21.000 --> 0:04:23.760 pitchers despite being major league pitchers in the past. And again, 0:04:23.839 --> 0:04:26.400 like I give Mendoza a lot of flak for a 0:04:26.400 --> 0:04:28.159 lot of the struggles for the New York Mets this year, 0:04:28.279 --> 0:04:30.239 I'm also going to give Justin Willard in the pitching 0:04:30.279 --> 0:04:34.600 staff a lot of flak because nobody is seemingly pitching 0:04:34.680 --> 0:04:38.000 better than we really expected it. Shaman I, I mean, 0:04:38.320 --> 0:04:41.080 I guess it took him three months a while, and 0:04:41.160 --> 0:04:44.839 even still it's like not great, it's. 0:04:44.720 --> 0:04:47.159 Not pretty good. Now he's right now, I think Shelman 0:04:47.200 --> 0:04:48.679 I is pitching like a quality three. 0:04:48.880 --> 0:04:51.000 Shamany is the best picture on this team right now, 0:04:51.000 --> 0:04:51.799 which is the problem. 0:04:51.839 --> 0:04:54.000 No McClain ratio. But again, like if you have those 0:04:54.040 --> 0:04:56.120 two guys in average Freddy, if you have this current 0:04:56.200 --> 0:04:58.160 version of and I, the current version of maclain, an 0:04:58.200 --> 0:05:00.920 average version of Freddy Peralta, the current of Christian Scott, 0:05:00.960 --> 0:05:02.520 like we said that would have been a good I'm 0:05:02.839 --> 0:05:04.640 I'm leaving out the fifth star because we'll get to 0:05:04.640 --> 0:05:06.680 that in the second of God. God, it makes me mad, 0:05:06.800 --> 0:05:09.200 but it's just even like going through the rest of 0:05:09.200 --> 0:05:11.800 that game. Besides Fridday, Peralta, that was that was one 0:05:11.839 --> 0:05:13.480 of the worst baseball game has ever been played in 0:05:13.520 --> 0:05:15.640 the field if you leave for the Mets. Yeah, it was. 0:05:16.000 --> 0:05:19.520 It was an incredibly excruciating watch, which is saying a 0:05:19.560 --> 0:05:21.479 lot in twenty twenty six for the New York Mets, 0:05:21.480 --> 0:05:25.240 but for the offense to perform like it did. I know, 0:05:25.320 --> 0:05:27.920 Christopher Sanchez is really good. Mark Viento's cut the lead 0:05:27.960 --> 0:05:30.479 the forty, which was of course the classic Mark Fiendo's 0:05:30.600 --> 0:05:34.640 It's crazy. He owns Christopher Sanchez absolutely owns his ass. 0:05:34.800 --> 0:05:37.680 And only Christopher Sanchez pisched against Mark Vento's for every 0:05:37.720 --> 0:05:39.080 at bat, he'd be a Hall of Famer. 0:05:39.279 --> 0:05:41.280 I was gonna say, think about Vento's his batpath, the 0:05:41.279 --> 0:05:44.400 sinker ball or lefty like that's time's the ideal matchup 0:05:44.400 --> 0:05:47.360 for him. Yeah, he's Evan Brady go down there and 0:05:47.400 --> 0:05:49.760 get that one. But had a great tweet here from 0:05:49.800 --> 0:05:52.800 Sarah Langs that with Bryce Harper and Kyle Schwarber, the 0:05:52.800 --> 0:05:55.919 Phillies are the second team MLB history with players with 0:05:56.000 --> 0:05:59.159 a cycle and a three homer game in the same game. Jordan, wait, 0:05:59.200 --> 0:06:01.400 can I ran real quick? Actually finish your staff forge 0:06:01.520 --> 0:06:03.080 sins this. I have two couple of stats about that. Then, 0:06:03.080 --> 0:06:04.479 we're rant about that. We'll go up and down with this. 0:06:04.560 --> 0:06:07.600 But the last time that happened was June third, nineteen 0:06:07.680 --> 0:06:11.480 thirty two Yankees at the Philadelphia Athletics. Tony Lazari hit 0:06:11.480 --> 0:06:14.360 for the cycle. Luke Garrick had his four home run game. 0:06:14.880 --> 0:06:18.839 That was also in Philadelphia. What that's crazy. That is crazy. 0:06:18.839 --> 0:06:21.400 That's absolutely saying you know, it's even crazier. Yeah, how 0:06:21.440 --> 0:06:25.080 fugazi Bryce Harper's triple was. That is not a triple. 0:06:25.120 --> 0:06:27.120 That's never been a triple in the history of baseball. 0:06:27.320 --> 0:06:30.040 That's not a cycle. That is the most ego stroking 0:06:30.080 --> 0:06:32.680 triple I've ever seen in my life. One book, Yeah, 0:06:32.720 --> 0:06:34.839 home book. The dude was on second base when the 0:06:34.839 --> 0:06:36.440 short song called the ball to throw it at home. 0:06:36.600 --> 0:06:39.000 He advanced on the throw. I don't care if the 0:06:39.160 --> 0:06:42.160 entire way Bryce Harper was looking for triple. That's not 0:06:42.240 --> 0:06:45.039 how the game of baseball scored. The Mets still got 0:06:45.080 --> 0:06:49.200 their ass absolutely trounced, so whatever doesn't really matter. But yeah, 0:06:49.240 --> 0:06:51.359 that's a that's a That cycle should have. 0:06:51.360 --> 0:06:53.120 An asterix next to it. That was not a triple. 0:06:53.240 --> 0:06:54.720 You wind up with the cycle next to the asterisk 0:06:54.760 --> 0:06:57.200 that we got about fifteen to three. Yeah, yeah, you 0:06:57.240 --> 0:06:58.839 guess fine, you could do that to I might have 0:06:58.880 --> 0:07:00.480 lost a fantasy game because of cycle. 0:07:00.680 --> 0:07:02.520 Oh he put up ninety points for me in one 0:07:02.520 --> 0:07:04.960 of my fantasy leagues. It was one May the league week. 0:07:05.200 --> 0:07:07.560 I was gonna say, leagues that have cycle bonuses. Yeah, 0:07:07.560 --> 0:07:10.080 I played against Bryce Harper. Our league has a cycle bonus. 0:07:10.120 --> 0:07:13.840 I lost by fifteen points. Yeah, you dontally now that. Now, 0:07:14.720 --> 0:07:17.320 now pissed about the cycle, Let's get every major league scoring. 0:07:17.400 --> 0:07:19.360 Let's get rid of that cycle. It's all banded together. 0:07:19.640 --> 0:07:22.480 Undo that cycle by Bryce Harper. But again, hometown scoring. 0:07:22.480 --> 0:07:24.960 You're winning by fifteen. You had you with a twelve batter, 0:07:25.120 --> 0:07:27.840 eight run inning. Kyle Schwarper had two home runs in 0:07:27.840 --> 0:07:28.360 the same inning. 0:07:28.520 --> 0:07:30.640 How about just the idea that Bryce Harp Yeah, I 0:07:30.640 --> 0:07:33.120 mean that's crazy. Just again, I kind of glanced over 0:07:33.160 --> 0:07:35.000 that two home runs in one inning. How about the 0:07:35.000 --> 0:07:37.640 idea that the Phillies felt so in control and like 0:07:37.680 --> 0:07:40.080 they were playing with the ball, that Bryce Harper had 0:07:40.080 --> 0:07:42.480 the audacity to go to third base on that ball 0:07:42.480 --> 0:07:46.680 when the shortstop was catching it. The Phillies embarrassed the 0:07:46.720 --> 0:07:49.160 Mets this weekend in a series that the Mets won 0:07:49.240 --> 0:07:51.440 a game. They started the series off one and oh 0:07:51.720 --> 0:07:54.480 Sean and I gotta win. And the Phillies this weekend 0:07:54.760 --> 0:07:57.480 absolutely embarrassed. The Mets showed everyone in Major League Baseball 0:07:57.480 --> 0:07:59.720 because these games are naturally televised. 0:07:59.200 --> 0:07:59.800 Both of them. 0:08:00.040 --> 0:08:02.760 This team is a fucking joke. This organization is a joke, 0:08:03.000 --> 0:08:05.960 and this team stinks. They don't deserve to even come close. 0:08:05.760 --> 0:08:08.280 To the playoffs. Dude, both of Schwarber's home runs at 0:08:08.280 --> 0:08:10.040 anyone four hundred and fifty feet. I did the quick 0:08:10.120 --> 0:08:12.560 snack cast check for I tried to get home runs 0:08:12.600 --> 0:08:14.040 in the same inning that both went four to fifty. 0:08:14.080 --> 0:08:15.880 I didn't find anything, so I don't think this happened 0:08:15.920 --> 0:08:17.280 stack cast era, but it could have been a little 0:08:17.280 --> 0:08:19.680 hazy on my search. And that was the fifth three 0:08:19.680 --> 0:08:23.080 homer game of Schwarber's career. That's a lot. That's a 0:08:23.200 --> 0:08:25.080 ton for a guy who hasn't had four, and he 0:08:25.160 --> 0:08:27.640 all different pictures. He also instantly hit the home run 0:08:27.800 --> 0:08:31.400 today so Sunday, so it's like he's got thirty homers. Yeah, 0:08:31.400 --> 0:08:33.240 he's got I mean Bryce Harper also has over twenty 0:08:33.240 --> 0:08:35.400 homers already. He's on pace for almost forty. Great bouts 0:08:35.440 --> 0:08:39.160 back by how elite Koshwarper had almost fifteen hundred feet 0:08:39.200 --> 0:08:41.920 of home runs and five at bats. That's insane against 0:08:41.960 --> 0:08:44.080 the Mets like it. Also, this is another tweet. I 0:08:44.160 --> 0:08:46.080 just was going through trying to find as many embarrassing 0:08:46.080 --> 0:08:49.240 stats as I could since the start of the MLB season. 0:08:49.240 --> 0:08:51.600 This Rons and whatever they're probably gambling. I didn't want 0:08:51.600 --> 0:08:53.360 to look in to see what he even said. Their 0:08:53.440 --> 0:08:56.439 name sleep it, bleep it, I'll bleep it a forty 0:08:56.480 --> 0:08:59.839 I'll believe. Well, Yeah, the Mets have more losses by 0:09:00.120 --> 0:09:03.480 twelve runs than the Knicks have of twelve points since 0:09:03.520 --> 0:09:06.760 the baseball season started. That's an It's impossible. How is 0:09:06.800 --> 0:09:08.160 it even possible. 0:09:07.880 --> 0:09:10.959 That the Mets have more twelve run losses than the 0:09:11.000 --> 0:09:12.920 Knicks lost by twelve points? 0:09:13.240 --> 0:09:15.960 The Knicks probably have only had seven or eight losses 0:09:16.000 --> 0:09:18.000 since the start of the omb season. Nicks just won 0:09:18.080 --> 0:09:22.160 championship with three total losses. That's enough to that. That's insane. 0:09:22.200 --> 0:09:25.920 This team is so bad and like Freddy Peralta completely 0:09:25.960 --> 0:09:29.040 shipped down his leg, showed everyone that he's a child 0:09:29.080 --> 0:09:31.160 and amongst men like he's got nothing. 0:09:31.200 --> 0:09:34.000 I'm out on Freddy, trade him tomorrow. There's no hope. 0:09:34.000 --> 0:09:35.679 He's not gonna be a good New York met ever, 0:09:35.720 --> 0:09:38.280 and I'm sorry, Freddy, great guy wasn't gonna work. But 0:09:38.280 --> 0:09:40.640 then CNL prez comes in and he fucking sucks. He's 0:09:40.679 --> 0:09:41.640 got absolutely nothing. 0:09:41.679 --> 0:09:43.920 He's the mop up guys, last kind of pen shocker, 0:09:44.040 --> 0:09:46.040 the guy that the Orioles who have no good bullpen 0:09:46.160 --> 0:09:48.880 arms didn't want, couldn't get it done. And then one 0:09:48.880 --> 0:09:52.760 good bullpen arm, one bullpen oh Rico Garcia. 0:09:52.880 --> 0:09:55.800 Yeahah, of course, how dare you what this team would 0:09:55.800 --> 0:10:00.160 be without? With Rico Garcia? Tobias Meyers, because again, who 0:10:00.240 --> 0:10:03.760 what's his role? We'll never find out.

Aj 0:11:09.480 --> 0:11:12.199 Minter told her Mets relievers had a competitive tally going 0:11:12.240 --> 0:11:14.520 of who can throw a Clay inning that's an inning 0:11:14.800 --> 0:11:17.800 inspired by Clay Holmes with fifteen or fewer pitches. Zach 0:11:17.840 --> 0:11:20.200 Short did that in the eighth inning on Saturday. Yes, 0:11:20.440 --> 0:11:23.400 Zach Short, Agay, this Met's bullpen right now is working 0:11:23.400 --> 0:11:25.200 with so much magic. Anyone can step out there and 0:11:25.240 --> 0:11:27.400 do well, and we're wasting A great bullpen could you. 0:11:27.400 --> 0:11:30.640 Believe that Kyle Schwarber hit three home runs in this game, 0:11:30.640 --> 0:11:33.240 Bryce Harper hit for the cycle and they didn't get 0:11:33.280 --> 0:11:35.760 any of those hits off of the short stop, the 0:11:35.800 --> 0:11:38.320 starting shortstop for the New York metswo pitcher of this game, which, 0:11:38.360 --> 0:11:41.319 by the way, why the fuck are we going back 0:11:41.320 --> 0:11:44.000 to this weird lefties can't face the leftiest thing Zach 0:11:44.080 --> 0:11:46.320 Short and Luise Terrenz in the same lineup on the 0:11:46.320 --> 0:11:51.640 same day. That's that's like a punishment that talk about antagonizing. Also, 0:11:51.880 --> 0:11:55.120 Zach Short one for four, three strikeouts. Enough of Zach Short, 0:11:55.120 --> 0:11:56.080 How do you get back here? 0:11:56.559 --> 0:11:58.600 The last time the Mets released Zach Short that win. 0:11:58.640 --> 0:12:02.080 The most magical run in franchise is push that don't 0:12:02.080 --> 0:12:04.240 bring back Hosea Glasias I come back. Also set me 0:12:04.280 --> 0:12:06.480 in hitting clean up, Wagonman hitting fifth like it was. 0:12:06.559 --> 0:12:09.960 I mean, it's fucking brain dead man paint whoever is 0:12:09.960 --> 0:12:12.439 doing it. I'm because at this point I gotta think 0:12:12.720 --> 0:12:15.560 that couldn't have been Mendoza, right, Surely, anybody who's ever 0:12:15.600 --> 0:12:17.760 watched baseball would never make this lineup. 0:12:18.000 --> 0:12:19.840 I could definitely see David Sans be like a new 0:12:19.880 --> 0:12:23.520 Wagman fifth spot, But Also, it does suck that the 0:12:23.559 --> 0:12:25.160 guys who were supposed to hit the lefties either are 0:12:25.200 --> 0:12:27.400 injured horror hitting them either, Like that's a painful thing. 0:12:27.559 --> 0:12:29.319 We're beginning season, We're like, oh, we're gonna get over 0:12:29.360 --> 0:12:32.360 this horrible lighter vers lefties thing because we have Bobashett 0:12:32.440 --> 0:12:35.559 lefty crusher. Jorge Polaco was very good as a righty. 0:12:35.600 --> 0:12:37.600 He pretty even splits out of Whitch Ether and Louis 0:12:37.679 --> 0:12:39.920 Roberts just, you know, always been good to get hitting lefties. 0:12:40.120 --> 0:12:43.839 Francisco Lindor just that shortstop fanciscoal stuff is interesting right now. 0:12:43.880 --> 0:12:46.800 The fact he's going to play Wednesday almost guaranteed it's crazy, 0:12:46.880 --> 0:12:49.360 does feel pretty nuts considered. He say he's very tired 0:12:49.440 --> 0:12:51.560 after the game today. I mean, he said he's gonna 0:12:51.559 --> 0:12:53.840 get a simulated the game tomorrow and off day Tuesday 0:12:53.880 --> 0:12:55.360 and saying back in the lineup. But I don't know 0:12:55.360 --> 0:12:57.360 if it's just they think that he's totally ready, because 0:12:57.360 --> 0:12:58.520 that's the kind of guy he is. I don't know 0:12:58.520 --> 0:13:00.920 if this is pure desperation by them, But like the 0:13:00.960 --> 0:13:03.520 fact that he's just playing the games around New York 0:13:03.520 --> 0:13:05.640 and like only this would say the first nine in 0:13:05.640 --> 0:13:07.800 any game, but the second one, like he's yeah, first one, 0:13:07.840 --> 0:13:10.680 I think this has been incredibly short rehab assignment for 0:13:10.679 --> 0:13:13.520 a player who was out for two full months with 0:13:13.400 --> 0:13:17.320 a with a pretty big injury, buge injury. Yeah, two 0:13:17.320 --> 0:13:23.120 minor league rehab games. I also, man, I love Louise Frends. 0:13:23.160 --> 0:13:26.040 We love Louise Frends elite backup, but like when you 0:13:26.080 --> 0:13:28.560 do see like a five eighty ops and then the 0:13:28.559 --> 0:13:31.319 fact that we gave him a two year contract seemingly 0:13:31.440 --> 0:13:33.800 kind of for no reason does feel a little bit 0:13:33.840 --> 0:13:37.000 stupid because now you kind of stop any sort of 0:13:37.160 --> 0:13:40.440 possible mobility there. And then also he catches back to 0:13:40.480 --> 0:13:43.160 back games for a team that can't score offensively. 0:13:43.600 --> 0:13:44.480 I don't know. 0:13:45.360 --> 0:13:48.200 The process is broken. You can't trust the process. If 0:13:48.200 --> 0:13:50.800 Philly ever taught us anything, you can't trust the process. 0:13:51.200 --> 0:13:53.360 It does seem like we're moving a little bit more 0:13:53.440 --> 0:13:57.800 to again this pro defense lineup or a more regular basis 0:13:57.840 --> 0:14:01.000 much work. Yeah, But honestly, with how hitters around this team, 0:14:01.040 --> 0:14:06.360 I'm fine with dhing Alvarez because who's who think about this? 0:14:06.360 --> 0:14:08.880 Because you're beinghe Wagerman, You're basically I mean, I think 0:14:08.880 --> 0:14:10.840 he does the h good be play third like Saturday, 0:14:10.840 --> 0:14:11.840 play right field. 0:14:12.040 --> 0:14:14.800 On Saturday, he played right field and third base. But 0:14:14.840 --> 0:14:16.120 then here's the crazy thing. 0:14:16.080 --> 0:14:19.760 Is like like if he if he can play third base, 0:14:19.800 --> 0:14:21.560 then just put him at third base, but Bobash at 0:14:21.560 --> 0:14:23.680 his shortstop, Like we don't need to have this and 0:14:23.760 --> 0:14:26.360 let let aj Ewing, who's been one of our better hiders, 0:14:26.360 --> 0:14:28.720 which is insane because he's twenty one years old, instead 0:14:28.720 --> 0:14:30.960 of forcing Zach Short into the lineup. 0:14:31.440 --> 0:14:34.240 Yeah, this act short thing was weird, but again, these 0:14:34.280 --> 0:14:36.040 are these are the things that I'm happy that you 0:14:36.080 --> 0:14:39.200 have the stomach to get after them still because I've 0:14:39.320 --> 0:14:42.560 lost my will. I want to go Beningo on people 0:14:42.760 --> 0:14:45.080 you want to go Bengo, have a go Beningo segment. 0:14:45.360 --> 0:14:48.160 Just for you guys at home were We're just go this. 0:14:48.160 --> 0:14:49.720 This is a little bit of like playing it up 0:14:49.760 --> 0:14:51.280 for the Twitter clip here because we want to sly 0:14:51.280 --> 0:14:52.600 if we can get this to go viral? 0:14:52.640 --> 0:14:54.240 How do we How should I start it? What should 0:14:54.240 --> 0:14:56.760 I be? Uh? You have to think if you want 0:14:56.760 --> 0:14:58.720 a true Beningo clip, you have to do some kind 0:14:58.720 --> 0:15:03.600 of tagline that's like really demonstrative and forceful and like obvious, 0:15:03.880 --> 0:15:05.560 like you know, the new York Mets have given up. 0:15:06.280 --> 0:15:08.640 The New York Mets are a garbage baseball team and 0:15:08.680 --> 0:15:11.120 a garbage yeah some shit like that. Yeah, I'll start 0:15:11.160 --> 0:15:12.400 it all right, Here we go, Here go. 0:15:12.880 --> 0:15:15.960 The New York Mets are a garbage team. They've given 0:15:16.040 --> 0:15:18.000 up on the season. You watch this team play every 0:15:18.000 --> 0:15:21.080 single day. There is no one playing hard. Nobody is inspired. 0:15:21.200 --> 0:15:25.400 The pitching stinks, the bullpen stinks, the lineup stinks. They 0:15:25.440 --> 0:15:28.200 can't score any runs, they can't let up any runs 0:15:28.240 --> 0:15:31.640 because we focused on defense this season. The defense is horrible. 0:15:31.680 --> 0:15:33.680 We have one of the worst defensive second basemen in 0:15:33.720 --> 0:15:36.160 the entire league. Mark Fientos doesn't know how to play 0:15:36.160 --> 0:15:39.240 first base. Our catching is switching every single time. We 0:15:39.320 --> 0:15:41.720 have guys in the outfield who've never played the outfield before. 0:15:41.880 --> 0:15:44.560 And yet the Mets still, with all this great defense 0:15:44.600 --> 0:15:46.880 and the new pitching and all these new bats, they 0:15:46.920 --> 0:15:49.440 still get outscored in a series by one hundred and 0:15:49.520 --> 0:15:52.040 they look embarrassed on a national stage. 0:15:52.120 --> 0:15:53.800 And what's Carls Mendoza doing. 0:15:53.920 --> 0:15:56.360 He's sitting there in the dugout with the same stupid 0:15:56.360 --> 0:15:57.560 fucking face he's add on. 0:15:57.760 --> 0:15:59.160 For the entirety of his career. 0:15:59.320 --> 0:16:02.800 Twiddling his thumbs, and the Mets continue to do nothing 0:16:03.000 --> 0:16:05.760 but sit on their hands and expect something to change, 0:16:05.960 --> 0:16:08.040 despite seeing like two hundred games of bad. 0:16:07.800 --> 0:16:10.400 Play scene good Beno. 0:16:10.080 --> 0:16:12.080 Clip, Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, gosht 0:16:12.160 --> 0:16:14.200 off ft people clipping that we appreciate you guys for 0:16:14.240 --> 0:16:14.760 any think out. 0:16:14.800 --> 0:16:16.800 Thank you guys all. But it is kind of how 0:16:16.840 --> 0:16:19.320 it feels you're series like this. I was gonna get you. 0:16:19.640 --> 0:16:21.000 I was gonna get you in the bullpen's things. I 0:16:21.000 --> 0:16:22.200 was gonna get you on that one. I didn't want 0:16:22.200 --> 0:16:23.440 to interrupt. I want to ruin the clip. I was 0:16:23.440 --> 0:16:25.040 gonna get you on that one. That's just for the clip. 0:16:25.040 --> 0:16:28.000 The bullpen has been the least of our issues. Can 0:16:28.040 --> 0:16:30.160 we talk about our favorite thing to talk about right now? 0:16:30.240 --> 0:16:32.800 The non clarity of pitching roles on this team. It's 0:16:32.800 --> 0:16:36.000 the best, yeah, please, because we talked about it in 0:16:36.080 --> 0:16:39.600 the the big blowout, the two big blowouts to go 0:16:39.640 --> 0:16:42.200 now three big blowouts to go now technically Monday against 0:16:42.200 --> 0:16:44.400 the Reds, but the Mets are kind of out of 0:16:44.440 --> 0:16:46.960 pitching and they're losing a game by double digit runs, which, again, 0:16:47.000 --> 0:16:48.600 does that have it down familiar? Did you watch the 0:16:48.600 --> 0:16:50.320 Mets on Saturday night as well, did you watch them 0:16:50.320 --> 0:16:53.400 on Tuesday too? And David Peterson comes in as the 0:16:53.400 --> 0:16:55.640 mop up guy. You basically had the choice between Luis 0:16:55.720 --> 0:16:58.520 Terenz and David Peterson as who's going to pitch when 0:16:58.520 --> 0:17:01.280 a game is over, and then you get to Sunday, 0:17:01.600 --> 0:17:04.639 a rubber game against your division rival. As a series 0:17:04.760 --> 0:17:08.920 victory would be so incredibly important to kind of the flow, 0:17:09.000 --> 0:17:11.600 and like we even talked about on the positive episode, 0:17:11.640 --> 0:17:14.399 like winning the series, sweeping Smet, the Phillies, wol have 0:17:14.400 --> 0:17:17.520
