Like ask a real question.
Like, yeah, this kid destroyed your bat and you bounce into a double play.
What do you think about that?
What do you think he thinks about it?
Like, I'm just, I'm getting rage baited.
I'm falling for it.
GG's I guess.
Pete's reeling me in right now.
No, I'm just saying the rep- that's what the reporters are doing.
Well, we gotta reel it in 'cause I'm gonna get even more mad about these reporters, but 'Cause I also, actually, on that topic, my bad, let me just keep going.
I thought- Sure the coverage of this tournament is so bad.
I can't stand the announcement booth that had to cover the game last night.
I thought they were god awful.
Just can't stand them.
And so keeping with the theme of Mets in the World Baseball Classic, I mean, we touched on the Dominican Republic, arguably the most stacked lineup ever assembled.
The batting third in that team Dominican lineup was Juan Soto, and he had a solid tournament for the Dominican Republic.
I mean, Juan Soto did Juan Soto things.
He sl- slash line, sorry.
A slash line of 261, 393, 522, two home runs, four RBIs.
So not quite mid-season form because we know just how good Juan Soto can be.
But again, seeing guys in this, quote-unquote, ramp up period, I mean, 261 is respectable.
Two home runs, four RBIs in six games, also respectable.
I mean, if I'm a Mets fan, I mean, I'm getting excited seeing my guys play on this high level right before the season starts.
Yeah.
Mets fans, you can trust me even though I'm a Yankees fan.
I have no hate for Juan Soto.
I think he's a great player.
yeah, and I mean, like you mentioned, this is kind of almost spring training for those guys.
I mean, I know they're playing a little bit harder.
It's obviously not spring training level effort.
They were playing like, USA was playing like it was spring training.
Oh, oh, sorry.
Yeah.
U- USA was, was playing like they- They, they didn't get the memo USA was playing like they took five years off from baseball and decided to try to come back and do it all again.
They looked like us last week in Florida.
Wait.
They're not gonna get the reference, Bob.
They don't know.
For, for context- They don't know we played seven games last week and lost six of them.
Well- And five of those were by run rule we went one and six.
We've had better days, but- it's not, it's not about us.
Welcome to D3, Bob.
It's about Juan Soto, and Juan Soto is ramping it up.
And I mean, like you said, serviceable, respectable numbers.
I only expect these are gonna go up from here
