Kodi Senga may not pitch.

And the Mets apparently are going to ask Kodi Senga to go to the minor leagues. Kodai has to approve of it because it's in his contract. And I can't see any way Kodi Sanga says no. How could Kodi Senga, who's been so bad and even said the other day, Teak, I'll do whatever it takes for this team, refuse a minor league assignment if the Mets requested. So what does it do for the Mets if he goes down to the minors? It gives them a Rasa spot? What do they do? Well, I think the good is... Because Sprode is not on the 40 men, is he? No, but they can add him. It has nothing to do with that. It has to do with trying to get Kodi-Sengel right. Of course, but I'm just saying, like, why would he agree to go down

to the minor league to fix himself when he can just try to fix himself here? Well, the Mets may not want him to. The Mets are in a pedant race. Even though I just described a race that may not exist in a week.

The Mets probably don't want to waste another game with a guy who's been bad since he's come off the IL.

And the Mets have the Trump card here.

Because if Kodai Senga says, a week, the Mets probably don't want to waste another game with a guy who's been bad since he's

come off the IL. And the Mets have the Trump card here. Because if Kodi Senga says no, they can simply say, well, we're not pitching you. You're not good enough to remain in this rotation. So you're going to become a mop-up guy in the bullpen. And it would behoove Kodi Senga and the Mets for him to go to the minor leagues, Trying to pitch well and get back.

Well, as I think of it from Kodi Singhenga and the Mets for him to go to the minor leagues, trying to pitch well and get

back in. Well, as I think of it from Kodi Singa's standpoint, it's just risky because what

happens if they add Sprote to the roster and he's like Nolan McLean and all of a sudden

Kodi Singa becomes expendable. And he never makes it back. I'll tell you why that's not, that wouldn't be a concern amount if I'm Kodai. What's he doing in the minor leagues? You laid out the part where Spro comes up and pitches well. It's low leverage, you know, just get yourself right, learn how to get deep into games, etc. Okay. So is Clay Holmes guaranteed a rotation spot? Is Shoma Naya guaranteed a rotation spot? No. So I don't think like Kodi Senga should be fearful of Brandon Sprode, who may not even be called up to replace him, because remember the Mets were running with a six-man rotation. They don't have to continue with six-man rotation. They can keep the five guys that are in it with Senga going to the minor league. Especially with Senga out. You don't need a six-man rotation.

Correct. So I think that it's a no-brainer. And I like Kodi. I've been a defender of Kodi. He has to say yes. I'm sorry. It is inexcusable if he says no, because you're selfish if you're saying no. I'll just call it like it is.

You said the other day through your translator,

I'll do whatever it helps this team.

If the Metz... I'll just call it like it is. You said the other day through your translator, I'll do whatever it helps this team.

If the Mets are telling you, dude, you haven't been good enough to run out there every six days.

We want to try to fix you in the minor leagues and you can give examples of guys that have been fixed,

whether it's Steve Traxell two decades ago or even Alvarez going down there as a young player.

Like, it can benefit him. Right. He's got to say yes. I think you're right, but I just, I can see how it would be nervous for him. Well, I think that's... If I was him, I'd be nervous. Keep an eye on what Mindy says. I don't know if Carlos will confirm this. He's speaking right now. Right now, Mindy.

So we'll check in and let you know what he says shortly.

I don't know if Carlos will confirm this. He's speaking right now. Mindy. So we'll check in and let you know what he says shortly. I don't know if he'll be asked about it because there was so much it went on in this game. But eventually we'll get an answer. Well, here's what Mendez told us. David Peterson's going to pitch Friday. And he's been up and down, but I don't think he's worthy of pulling out of the rotation. Tong is going to pitch Saturday, TBD on Sunday, which is only Nolan McLean. It's either McLean or Brandon Sproat, but I think since Mania's pitching Monday, you may as well have McLean on his day. And I'll tell you the other reason, and Kendrick and Suffer nailed this in the RICOB email. This is a huge point. The reason that Nolan McLean needs to pitch Sunday has nothing to do with Babe Ruth versus Barry Bonds on Friday night. Has nothing to do with Tom Seaver versus Doc Gooden on Friday night. As cool as McLean versus DeGrom is. Here's what it has to do with. And you all are going to shake your head in agreement. By the way, those were just examples. Evan's confusing people by talking about Babe Ruth. Why, you don't think Jacob de Grom is Babe Ruth? I mean, they are, but people are like, what the hell are you talking about? You don't think Nolan McLean is Roman Reigns? I do. I mean, people have no idea the context of what you're referring to. Bottom line. I was just telling you, those are random examples. What he's talking about is Nolan McLean versus Jacob de Groan.

Dude. context and what you're referring to. Bottom line. I'm just telling you, those are random examples. What he's talking about is Nolan McLean versus Jacob deGrope.
