| 0:00.0 | Opened up talking about the Mets continued losing streak and a great one at Yankee Stadium last night. |
| 0:06.5 | One of the things you said earlier was I can't believe we're talking about Carlos Mendoza potentially getting fired, |
| 0:13.0 | but not like I can't believe because it's a silly conversation. |
| 0:16.1 | Just I can't believe that the team after last year has come out and then look this listless and we're |
| 0:21.5 | actually really legitimately having this conversation. And it's not just about the start of this year. |
| 0:26.7 | It's about the end of last year. It's also about the money spent and everything that goes into |
| 0:31.5 | what Steve Cohen and David Stearns are expecting and the way that they have played, which just feels |
| 0:36.8 | lifeless. So. And let's let and the way that they have played, which just feels lifeless. |
| 0:38.4 | And let's not forget that they fired the entire coaching staff. |
| 0:43.5 | That's right. |
| 0:44.4 | And at the time, and I know that other people disagree with me, but when Kai Correa was hired, |

And I'm not saying I would hire Kai Correa as the manager. I'm just trying to get in the head of David Stearns and what he wants. |
| 1:13.7 | So he obviously liked this guy. would hire Kai Correa as the manager. I'm just trying to get in the head of David Stearns and what he wants. |
| 1:13.6 | So he obviously liked this guy enough to go get him from San Francisco and put him as the |
| 1:19.7 | bench coach, which is a very, very important role to a baseball staff. |
| 1:23.8 | You know, the guy that is in the ear of Carlos Mendoza, he's right next to him. |
| 1:28.1 | He's essentially the assistant head coach as the bench coach. |
| 1:32.2 | So that's why I think that he's going to say, this is the perfect guy, we're going to work well together, |
| 1:38.4 | and this clubhouse will police itself, all these things that these guys think, these analytic guys. |
| 1:43.7 | And that's why I think |
