Hey everyone, it's Boomer and Gio, and if you're into New York sports or you want straight talk about what's really going on in the sports world, Boomer and Geo is your show. We're covering it all. Yankees wins, Giants drama, national headlines, and whatever chaos the day brings on the field and all. No filler, no filters, just real conversation. And believe me, plenty of laughs every weekday morning. We don't hold back and we don't waste your time.

We get to what actually matters.

That's Boomer and Gio and you can listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your pods. The manager of the Mets is Mickey Callaway. Mickey, welcome. How are you? How are you doing? I'm doing well. All right. You're back home. You got a lot of home games coming up. You're in the stretch run right now. Things are kind of stacked against you. What's your message to your team, Mickey? You know, they've been stacked against us before. We've done some special things, getting back into it, getting back into it in the first place. We just got to focus one game at a time. You know, it would have been easy after that really tough loss the other day to come out the next day flat. They didn't do that. They came out, played a great game. Now we've got to get on a role, and you've got to win. I mean, we are in front of our fans. We have no excuses.

And you had a six-run lead. If you don't think you can get three outs with a six runs, I mean, come on. But it didn't happen. And there's been too many of those times. There's not enough reliable people for you to trust down there in that bullpen.

We can't have it happen again.

I mean, we just can't, right?

For us to get to where we want to get, those guys, everybody down there has to perform.

You can't give away one game again.

So we're going to keep on trusting these guys and go from there,

but they got to get it done if we're going to get to where we want to get. So your tact basically is and continues to be, I have to use Familia and Diaz, and if they

don't do it, we're going to go down with them, right? I mean, that's basically it, right?

And you have to because Justin Wilson, Avalon, and Lugo can't pitch every night.

You know, Paul Seawald, Tyler Bachelor, Diaz, Familia, all of those guys are going to have to

get big outs at some point because there's going to be days where Lugo's not

available. And there's going to be days where Wilson and available. And those guys got to step
