Summary

The Mets lost again last night and only got one hit, a solo Soto HR in the ninth. They were swept by the Guardians. Jerry didn’t like Soto’s effort in right field. The Mets are being booed at home, which Boomer can’t believe with a $400 million roster.

It is horrendous.

0:01.9

And I keep hearing from Mendoza talking about how good his team is, how good his team is.

0:07.5

Well, you know, I don't know, maybe when they're practicing or they're meeting, they're good because when they get on the field, they basically look flat.

0:16.2

And I don't know why this team looks flat because we talked about this yesterday with Geo.

0:21.7

They're selling, they're getting big crowds. i'm not selling out every the crowds are great the fans are into it

0:26.5

but for some reason something is missing and i don't know what that is and i know everybody's waiting

0:33.1

for the big outburst i thought they had the outburst over the weekend uh but that, you know, that led the nothing. And then, you know, for this team, and it's embarrassing. I don't care what anybody says, getting one hit. And quite frankly, you know, there was a chance yesterday that when Juan Soto hit that ball, that he might have been thrown out at first base if it doesn't go out of the

0:54.6

out of the building you know because he's loafing out of the out of the box now i don't expect him

0:59.8

to sprint the first base in a situation like this but he watched the whole thing and it gets out

1:06.3

by literally a foot by a foot and it's back in and you know what this to is like a rear guy and he's got a nice smile on his face. You know, like he's laughing. You know, I'm sick of it. I want to see attitude. I want to see, you know, when the Mets had Gary Carter, they had Ray Knight. They had, you know, they had guys that would fight.

1:28.6

You know, they would go on losing streaks, too, like every baseball team does.

1:32.5

But I don't ever, and maybe I'm forgetting things, but there were times where these guys would be fighting each other.

1:39.4

They were fighting with each other.

1:40.5

They were punching Eric Davis in the face on third base.

1:42.5

Right, exactly.

1:43.6

And Cincinnati. And, you know, this team looks, you know, this team looks overpaid and underwhelmed. They look bored. And that's a bad place to be. And I'm glad you brought up Soto. I was going to get to him, but since you mentioned the home run and watching the replay on a closer view, maybe it was more than a foot, it was a three or four feet up. But your point is well taken. Stephen or Andrew, whoever is back at CBS Sports Network, can you, if possible, can you get me the RBI triple by Arias in the sixth inning? Because just to set this up. So David Peterson, who was okay, gave up a couple of, you know, the home runs, made it three nothing. Then he goes out there in the sixth inning and two out, you can't walk't walk a guy with two outs. Wow, we all know that. He walks Carlos Santana, but I don't know. Watch this. Watch Soto on right field. Number one, lallagging to the ball here, fumbles it. Watch this throw. What is that? He gives the guy the extra base making it a triple instead of it.

2:37.0

Like, he says, I just say Arias, basically, Arias was the MVP of the series.

2:43.9

But to your point about Soto, like, he's not even the lob throw in.

2:50.2

It's a base. I don't want to say there's no effort. There's not much effort on that play. I want to say this, and I'm going to say it again, there's not a player worth 765. No, there's not. I mean, you know, maybe show you atollone because he does so many different things, and he basically steals bases, you know, and I know Juan has stole some bases this year,

3:09.1

but, you know, is he a leading, like your highest paid player, whether it be Aaron Judge or Joey O'Tani,

3:15.9

or in this case, Juan Soto, has to lead the team.

3:18.8

Yep, I agree.
