Full Show: Sal Admits the Mets Have Finally Broken His Spirit

Sal opened the show with a fiery monologue, declaring that for the first time, he feels in his gut that the Mets will not make the playoffs. He pointed to the team's ongoing pitching woes as the primary reason for his pessimism, highlighting how the staff is a "house of cards" with no reliable starters, forcing the team to "piggyback" pitchers. Sal was particularly critical of the decision to let rookie Jonah Tong start the most important game of the season after his last meltdown. He also touched on the absurdity of Mets fans blaming Juan Soto for the team's struggles, calling it an absurd take given his MVP-caliber season. He argued that the entire organization's pitching philosophy is in "shambles" and is the main culprit for the team's inability to put opponents away.
