- 36:00They

- 36:05then
- 36:05Harper
- 36:05and
- 36:05Castianos,
- 36:06you
- 36:07could
- 36:07see
- 36:07every

- 36:09he
- 36:09was
- 36:10grinding
- 36:11that
- 36:11bat
- 36:11harder
- 36:12and
- 36:12harder,
- 36:13trying
- 36:14to
- 36:14hit
- 36:14a
- 36:14five
- 36:15run
- 36:15home
- 36:15run
- 36:15the

- 36:16And
- 36:16the

- 36:17lineup
- 36:17did
- 36:17nothing.
- 36:18And
- 36:18the
- 36:18Mets
- 36:18just
- 36:19really
- 36:20just
- 36:21kept
- 36:21beating

- 36:24out
- 36:24of
- 36:24Philadelphia.
- 36:25Agreed.
- 36:26And
- 36:26I
- 36:26think
- 36:26that
- 36:27they

- 36:34of
- 36:35the
- 36:35Mets
- 36:35that
- 36:35day.
- 36:36And
- 36:36I
- 36:36think
- 36:36one
- 36:37of
- 36:37the
- 36:37budding
- 36:37superstars
- 36:38who
- 36:38cannot

- 36:39lineup
- 36:39is
- 36:40Mark
- 36:40Vientos.

- 36:49to
- 36:49quit
- 36:49no
- 36:49matter
- 36:50what
- 36:50the
- 36:50situation
- 36:51is.
- 36:51The
- 36:52problem
- 36:52could
- 36:52be,
- 36:52though,
- 36:53John,
- 36:53is
- 36:53some,
- 36:54you
- 36:54know,
- 36:54you
- 36:54do
- 36:54that
- 36:55too
- 36:55many
- 36:55times
- 36:55and
- 36:56eventually
- 36:56you
- 36:56just
- 36:56can't
- 36:57crawl
- 36:57yourself
- 36:58back
- 36:58out
- 36:58of
- 36:58that
- 36:58hole.
- 37:00Yep,
- 37:01totally
- 37:01agree.
- 37:02At
- 37:02some
- 37:02point,
- 37:02they're
- 37:02going
- 37:02to
- 37:03have

- 37:19in
- 37:19a
- 37:19three
- 37:19game
- 37:20series
- 37:20is
- 37:20obviously
- 37:22crucial.
- 37:23Even
- 37:23in
- 37:23a
- 37:23five
- 37:24game
- 37:24series,
- 37:26you
- 37:26want

- 37:27off
- 37:27to
- 37:27a
- 37:27good
- 37:27start
- 37:28because
- 37:28it
- 37:28is
- 37:28a
- 37:28short
- 37:29series.
- 37:29In
- 37:30a
- 37:30seven
- 37:30game
- 37:30series,
- 37:31you

- 37:33try
- 37:33to
- 37:33get
- 37:34one
- 37:34of
- 37:35the
- 37:35first
- 37:35two.
- 37:36But
- 37:37the
- 37:37reality
- 37:37is,
- 37:38in
- 37:38all
- 37:38of
- 37:38these
- 37:38series,
- 37:39seven
- 37:39game
- 37:39series,
- 37:40it's
- 37:41not
- 37:41really
- 37:41a
- 37:41series
- 37:41until
- 37:42you
- 37:42lose
- 37:42your
- 37:42first
- 37:42home
- 37:43game.
- 37:43The
- 37:44Mets
- 37:44can
- 37:45breed
- 37:45a
- 37:45little
- 37:45bit
- 37:45here,
- 37:46which
- 37:46they
- 37:46have
- 37:47not
- 37:47had
- 37:47the
- 37:47ability
- 37:48to
- 37:48do
- 37:49really
- 37:49in
- 37:49the
- 37:49last
- 37:50month.
- 37:51So
- 37:52Flaherty
- 37:52hasn't
- 37:52been
- 37:53great
- 37:53for
- 37:53them,
- 37:53you

- 37:54ra
- 37:54in
- 37:55a
- 37:55post
- 37:55season,
- 37:55not
- 37:55great
- 37:56in
- 37:56the
- 37:56regular
- 37:56season.
- 37:57Funny
- 37:58that
- 37:58he
- 37:59actually
- 37:59talked
- 38:00a
- 38:00little
- 38:00bit
- 38:00about,
- 38:01you
- 38:01know,
- 38:01him
- 38:01coming
- 38:02to
- 38:03watch
- 38:03the
- 38:03Mets
- 38:04play
- 38:04the
- 38:04Dodgers
- 38:04back
- 38:05in
- 38:052015
- 38:05when
- 38:06DeGrom
- 38:06and
- 38:06Syndegaard
- 38:07were
- 38:07pitching.
- 38:09You
- 38:09know,
- 38:09he's
- 38:10their
- 38:10one
- 38:10guy.
- 38:10And
- 38:11then
- 38:11Bueller
- 38:12could
- 38:12pitch
- 38:13two,
- 38:13could
- 38:13pitch
- 38:13three.
- 38:14And
- 38:14then
- 38:14after
- 38:15that,
- 38:15really,
- 38:16it's
- 38:16Yamamoto.
- 38:17And
- 38:17I
- 38:18think
- 38:18the
- 38:18Mets
- 38:19are
- 38:19going
- 38:19to
- 38:19get
- 38:19a
- 38:19bullpen
- 38:20game,
- 38:20whether
- 38:20it's
- 38:20game
- 38:20two
- 38:21or
- 38:21game
- 38:21three.
- 38:23Starting
- 38:24pitching
- 38:24edge
- 38:24therefore
- 38:25goes
- 38:25to
- 38:25New
- 38:26York.
- 38:26You
- 38:26think
- 38:26so?
- 38:27I
- 38:28think
- 38:28so.
- 38:28Just
- 38:28with
- 38:28the
- 38:29depth
- 38:29of
- 38:29what
- 38:29they
- 38:29have.
- 38:30But
- 38:30again,
- 38:31the
- 38:31Dodger
- 38:31bullpen
- 38:32has
- 38:32been
- 38:32excellent.
- 38:33They've
- 38:33had
- 38:3425
- 38:34consecutive
- 38:35scoreless
- 38:35innings.
- 38:35Right
- 38:36now,
- 38:36the
- 38:36Dodgers
- 38:37as
- 38:37a
- 38:37pitching
- 38:37staff
- 38:38going
- 38:38into
- 38:38the
- 38:38second
- 38:39and
- 38:39here.
- 38:39So
- 38:40their
- 38:40bulletin
- 38:41was
- 38:41very
- 38:41good
- 38:41against
- 38:42San

- 45:29Yeah,
- 45:29I
- 45:30agree
- 45:30with
- 45:30you,
- 45:30Chris,
- 45:30and
- 45:30I
- 45:31think
- 45:31they're
- 45:31on
- 45:31two
- 45:31different
- 45:32planes.
- 45:32I
- 45:33think
- 45:33that
- 45:34when
- 45:34you
- 45:34look
- 45:34at
- 45:35the
- 45:35Yankees,
- 45:35I
- 45:36do
- 45:36think
- 45:36it
- 45:36would
- 45:36be
- 45:37a
- 45:37disappointment
- 45:38if
- 45:38they
- 45:39don't
- 45:39get
- 45:39there.
- 45:40I
- 45:40think
- 45:40that
- 45:41the
- 45:41path
- 45:42to
- 45:42the
- 45:42World
- 45:42Series
- 45:42was
- 45:43kind
- 45:43of
- 45:43laid
- 45:43out
- 45:44for
- 45:44them,
- 45:44having
- 45:45to
- 45:45only
- 45:45go
- 45:45through
- 45:46the
- 45:46AL
- 45:47central.
- 45:47When
- 45:48you
- 45:48look
- 45:48at
- 45:48the
- 45:48Mets,
- 45:49it's
- 45:49a
- 45:49little
- 45:49different.
- 45:50They
- 45:50were
- 45:50the
- 45:526th
- 45:52seed,
- 45:53got
- 45:53in
- 45:54on
- 45:54game
- 45:54161,
- 45:56probably
- 45:57was
- 45:57not
- 45:57favored
- 45:57against,
- 45:58they
- 45:58were
- 45:58not
- 45:58favored
- 45:58against
- 45:59Milwaukee,
- 45:59not
- 46:00favored
- 46:00against
- 46:00Philadelphia,
- 46:02not
- 46:02favored
- 46:03here
- 46:03against
- 46:03LA.
- 46:04So
- 46:05it
- 46:05will
- 46:06be
- 46:07disappointing
- 46:08if
- 46:08the
- 46:08Mets
- 46:09don't
- 46:09get
- 46:09there.
- 46:10To
- 46:10me,
- 46:11it's
- 46:11disappointing
- 46:12versus
- 46:12a
- 46:13disappointment.
- 46:15But
- 46:15I
- 46:15agree.
- 46:15I
- 46:16think
- 46:16the
- 46:16talk
- 46:16of
- 46:17it
- 46:17has
- 46:17to
- 46:17be
- 46:17Mets,
- 46:18Yankees.
- 46:18I
- 46:18think
- 46:19that's
- 46:19more
- 46:20just
- 46:20for
- 46:21talk
- 46:21radio.
- 46:22I
- 46:22think
- 46:22that's
- 46:22more
- 46:23for
- 46:23the
- 46:24tabloids
- 46:25in
- 46:25the
- 46:25city.
- 46:26But
- 46:27at
- 46:27the
- 46:27end
- 46:27of
- 46:27the
- 46:27day,
- 46:28whatever,
- 46:29two
- 46:29teams
- 46:29are
- 46:29the
- 46:29last
- 46:30two
- 46:30standing
- 46:30for
- 46:30the
- 46:30World
- 46:31Series,
- 46:31those
- 46:31are
- 46:31the
- 46:31ones
- 46:32that
- 46:32deserve
- 46:33to
- 46:33get
- 46:33there.
- 46:34The
- 46:34Mets
- 46:34obviously
- 46:35have
- 46:35their
- 46:36work
- 46:36cut
- 46:37out
- 46:37for
- 46:37them
- 46:38versus
- 46:39Los
- 46:39Angeles,
- 46:39and
- 46:39I
- 46:40would
- 46:40say
- 46:40the
- 46:40same
- 46:40throughout
- 46:40the
- 46:41Yankees
- 46:41with
- 46:41Cleveland.
- 46:42Yeah,
- 46:43we're
- 46:43going
- 46:43to
- 46:43talk
- 46:43in
- 46:44two
- 46:44weeks,
- 46:44and
- 46:44at
- 46:44that
- 46:44point,
- 46:45the
- 46:45World
- 46:45Series
- 46:46champion
- 46:46will
- 46:47have
- 46:47been
- 46:47decided.
- 46:50But
- 46:50I
- 46:50think
- 46:51at
- 46:51that
- 46:52point,
- 46:52people
- 46:53will
- 46:53probably
- 46:54be
- 46:54up
- 46:54in
- 46:54arms
- 46:54as
- 46:55to
- 46:55which
- 46:55team
- 46:55was
- 46:56better
- 46:56at
- 46:56that
- 46:56time
- 46:57as
- 46:57opposed
- 46:57to
- 46:57just
- 46:57crowning
- 46:58a
- 46:58champion
- 46:58and
- 46:58moving

- 47:03walking
- 47:04another
- 47:04batter.

- 47:05get
- 47:05somebody
- 47:05up
- 47:06in
- 47:06the
- 47:06bullpen.
- 47:06But
- 47:06I
- 47:06think,
- 47:07John,
- 47:07that
- 47:07hurts
- 47:07our
- 47:07chances
- 47:08moving

- 47:16in
- 47:16your
- 47:16bullpen
- 47:17really
- 47:17bad.
- 47:18Yeah,
- 47:19I
- 47:19would
- 47:19probably,
- 47:20the
- 47:21thought
- 47:21was
- 47:21that
- 47:21they
- 47:22were
- 47:22going
- 47:22to

- 47:25I
- 47:25would
- 47:25probably
- 47:26consider
- 47:27getting
- 47:28Tyler

- 47:31An
- 47:32inning
- 47:32with
- 47:32Danny
- 47:32Young
- 47:33and
- 47:33then
- 47:33start
