Hour 1: "Can't Trust 'Em": The Mets' Rotation Crumbles

Sal delivered a fiery monologue, declaring that his gut now tells him the Mets are going to miss the playoffs, citing a series of recent games and the team's overall lack of pitching. He's lost confidence in the team's ability to get over the hump, particularly with the rotation in shambles and a young, untested pitcher like Jonah Tong on the mound for a must-win game. Sal sees a stark contrast between the Mets' struggles and the Yankees' recent offensive explosion, highlighting a "tale of two teams" as the season winds down. He expressed frustration with the team's reliance on hoping for the best, arguing that their poor play has allowed the dangerous Diamondbacks to close in and put them in real peril.
