All right, we say we do this on a Tuesday morning.

0:01.8

The Eddie Scissary, the days are short that we're going to be saying that, but it's nice to see you across to me. He's still got his MET hat on, and I appreciate that. Al Dukes, what's up? Good morning, Jerry. Well, the Mets are back in action tonight against the Washington Nationals. I will tell you, if they don't put up like eight runs tonight. But we know they're not.

0:22.8

Well, this, but the guy they're facing gets lit up every time it goes to the mound this season. You got to go out there and score some runs tonight. Well, this is his, and what he's thinking tonight is. As the Mets. Yeah, I get lit up every time I go out here. Thank God I got the Mets to get me right here today. You might be right. You know, we'll get an in-between game. Yeah. The Mets will score three runs, not bad, not great. And for him, not bad, not great. And then the game will be tied in the eighth or ninth. And then Devin Williams will blow it. blow it. Well, we didn't get Carlos Mendoza fire just today, so I guess that was,

1:11.1

I don't know if that's a positive or a negative. I guess depending on where you stand with this type of stuff. It seems like they are going to stay with him for another series, at least. I wonder if it's like, remember when Conan O'Brien first took over for David Letterman many years ago?

1:11.3

Sure.

1:13.9

And nobody knew who Conan O'Brien was.

1:18.5

He was getting four-week contracts, something like that.

1:19.4

Like, really?

1:19.7

Yeah.

1:23.8

They just kept renewing them like a month at a time because they didn't know what was going to go on. That's like Carlos Mendoza now, if he doesn't put together a group of winning

1:31.2

series and he loses two series in a row, he's back on the hot seat and it's only April 28th.

1:38.6

Well, he's on the hot team back on it. I know he's on the hot seat, but I'm saying like if they're

1:42.5

going to give him another series. Yeah.

1:44.4

So even if he wins this series against the nationals and then drops the next two series, he's back on the hot seat.

1:50.6

Until you get this team playing consistent baseball, like winning baseball.

1:54.7

Yeah, he's on the hot seat for sure.

1:56.1

Like, what are the chances that this guy manages a game wherein John Harbaugh has his regular season debut with the Giants.

2:04.5

That's a great question. Is he still the manager in September? I don't think so.

2:08.9

Well, I mean, yeah, I mean, you'd need to see signs of them coming out of it.

2:13.0

Like really consistent signs. I'll give you a better question. They get blown out tonight.

2:17.0

Is he the manager tomorrow? Like, I feel like that's where we're at, you know, and I, this Nationals lineup is, is young,

2:24.9
