What are the highlights of the Yankees' opening day?
It's the Boomer and Geo podcast from WFAN. And we're coming to you live from the Build 4 Tough Studio. Boomer Esaias and Greg Giottati. It's Boomer and Geo. On the fans, simulcast across the country on CBS Sports Network. And wherever you are, the free Odyssey app. Good Friday morning. It is a feel-good Friday. There may be some Catholics out there that say Good Friday can't be a feel-good Friday. And that's what they believe. But here at Boomer and Gio, we are non-denominational. And we have Feel Good Fridays on every single Friday of the year, even when the Mets lose again and look worse than they have the entire year. Last night in San Francisco, David Peterson. Not great. Offense still really bad. Yes, it's early, but it's just annoying, especially when you come off the last couple of months of the 2025 season where this team was absolutely atrocious.
But we've got happiness today out in the Bronx. Yankees opening day. And that's going to be a lot of fun for Yankee fans as their team continues to roll all good vibes around the New York Yankees. Plenty more to get to throughout the course of the morning. Good morning, Boomer. How are you? Oh, I'm doing great, G. Thank you very much on this good Friday. I would say that as a Met fan, I'm not very happy and rightfully so. As a human being, I'm sick, and I feel worse today than I did yesterday. Yeah. As you can tell. But, you know, I'm going to power through this because it is opening day for the New York Yankees at 5-1, and they are rolling, man, and they look great. And all I can say to us Met fans is, man, it is early.
We got a long way to go, and we are a long way from opening day. When we thought when we came in here the next day, wow, this is going to be some lineup when you see it in –
Why are Mets fans frustrated with the team's performance?
in real time and what they did and how they fight off pitches. But, you know, David Peterson did not have a good start last night and watched the highlights this morning. Obviously did not stay up and watch the game at all. But it just seems like they just cannot get the key hit. Again, runners in scoring position, oh, for three this time. And they only had five hits in this game. Yeah, I mean, they get out to a lead, but obviously it doesn't last very long, and you had a combination of David Peterson getting smacked around the park and then sloppiness as well as he makes an error trying to cover first. You got the miscommunication between Luis Robert Jr. and Marcus Simeon that leads to a ball dropping that shouldn't have.
So, yeah, it was just a bad one, and it normally wouldn't matter as much if we didn't. See the same things that have befell them the last couple of games, which is bad offense after bad offense after bad offensive game. And also, it was a long offseason. It was a long June, July, August, September last year watching them play terrible baseball. When you finally get yourself past some of the things maybe you disagreed with in the offseason, even though I didn't disagree with much, and then you come out and that first game, as we talked about, the lineup's long and it feels like this team is disciplined at the plate. Everybody's got the eye of Juan Soto. To turn that into what we've seen here, which is just absolutely anemic offense, is frustrating.
You just hope that it doesn't continue. It's not like the San Francisco Giants are some sort of juggernaut. I mean, it's also annoying that you see the Yankees essentially shut down the Giants like they were a Little League team. And then when the Mets play them, you know, seven runs in that first game. Yeah, that's a little bit annoying as well. But, of course, I mean, all the old adages continue about April and this and that. It's just that... this is the time you're supposed to be excited about the team and it's supposed to be fired up. Like Yankee fans right now, that's what I want to be feeling. I want to be feeling that 5-1 feeling going to Yankee Stadium for opening day and seeing this team continue to play well.
And instead we got a 3-4 team that was mentally checked out two days ago, is sloppy in the field and can't get a big hit.
