Good Wednesday morning.

0:20.2

Exciting news for Mets fans overnight, late last night. Luis Robert

0:24.4

Jr. is your new center fielder, a name that was talked about at the trade deadline last year.

0:31.2

Instead, they got Cedric Mullins. It was a total bust, but Luis on Helacuna goes to the White Sox, another prospect out to the White Sox,

0:39.8

and Luis Robert Jr., an elite defender, and a man who has at least one spectacular

0:46.1

offensive season under his belt, is going to be the center fielder, so that's exciting.

0:49.6

David Stearns continues, and John Harboy yesterday that press conference was everything you expected it to be.

0:55.6

It was awesome. It was exciting. You saw him and all his Harbawness, which is exactly what we knew we were going to get.

1:03.5

I saw Evan Teke and Sean's interview with him. Afterwards, Sean, what they could not. He just smiled ear to ear the entire time, and I'm imagining that most giant fans were doing the same thing. Good morning, Boomer. How are you? Yeah, I'm doing all right, gee, and you're right. It was exactly what we thought it was going to be. I mean, I thought Joe Shane was a little out of breath. Yeah, it was a very strange thing there. I was nervous. I felt like he was nervous. But why would, like, you're right. He was nervous, and that's probably what was going on.

1:44.4

It's another four wins. And everybody's asking him why you should still be the general manager, why Brian Dable got fired. And this is like the exciting one. You got it done. You're here. You're the man. You're staying. And then that's why he was out of breath. It was weird. It was very strange. It was kind of strange. And then, of course, because this is New York and because everybody has to know everything and everybody has to kind of understand the pecking order over there at the Quest Diagnostic Center. You know, the questions now start, you know, who's got the final say? Who's got this? Who's got that? I mean, this is like, you know, John Harbaugh probably

2:18.8

doesn't realize it, but now he does realize it, that this is New York, that everybody's going

2:24.4

to question everything that you're doing, how you're doing it, who reports to the owner, who

2:28.7

doesn't report to the owner? In the building over there, it really doesn't matter much, as long as

2:33.8

they collaborate.

2:34.9

The one thing I will say for John Harbaugh to sign a five-year, $100 million deal,

2:40.0

he's the one wielding all the power if you care about that kind of thing.
