The Mets might be 5-1 or 6-0.
And if that were the case, we would be having a completely different pod right now.
And he just hasn't hit.
And that's really what it comes down to.
Other guys have had struggles.
You know, Luis Robert got off to a really strong start.
And then he's kind of slowed down a little bit.
Brett Beatty had that great over-the-head...
nightmare O'Neal Cruz moment in Game 1.
Since then, he hasn't hit much.
Mark Vientos did hit a double, but he hasn't played much.
Carson Bench had a home run in his first game, and he hasn't hit much.
So it's been a trying time, but I really do think... I don't want to put everything on Bo Bichette, but I think if we were in Game 67 instead of Game 6, and he were feeling more settled in the season...
We'd just be having a different vibe.
If Bo Bichette struggles for the entire season, this is going to be a long and depressing year, I think.
I mean, Bobachet was getting booze in game two.
And that's, you know, that's New York.
That's Mets fandom.
I think you got to, you know this well, and I know this really well.
It's 40 years this year, man.
