From a starting rotation standpoint, they have not gotten what they expected out of their rotation.

And that scares me for them because that's a big part of that team.

Even though they may have a little bit better built out bullpen, their pitching has been really bad all around.

They can't lean on anything right now.

And I think the Mets can.

So I think if the Mets find a little bit better offense, which they're not going to be last in offense all year.

So if they find a little bit of offense, I think that team is a better shot right now of winning games.

And to me, I just I put a little bit more trust in that.

Yeah, I mean, a big surprise.

Look, I think I thought the Padres would be competitive.

I did not think the Padres would be where they are right now.

I thought they had enough, you know, kind of, well, just,

stick with where we're at.

We'll kind of see how the season goes.

You know, we've got the same rotation.

We lost an arm here.

We lost an arm in the bullpen there.

We lost a position player here.

For some reason, they're playing really well right now.

I love, I'll be honest, I think a lot of people are surprised by the Reds.
