Summary

BT put the blame squarely on Mets manager Carlos Mendoza for the team's latest loss, calling out his "scared" and "gutless" managing. The critical error, according to BT, was pulling a well-pitching Kodai Senga with 93 pitches, a move that BT believes was a clear sign of a manager lacking trust and conviction. This decision, combined with Mendoza's repetitive and uninspiring postgame interviews, is symptomatic of a larger issue within the team's coaching staff, which is failing to properly lead a talented but underperforming roster.
