The Mets have butchered retired numbers from day 1. Cohen had a chance to make it right but instead just made it worse.
Retiring a manager’s number is ridiculous. We did it twice. And neither of them are our winningest manager. Retiring Mays devalues all retired numbers. Retiring 8 for Carter would be as dumb as retiring 4 for Lenny.
What a terrible game. Mets have been playing sloppy for a while. It bit them today.
Recent winning aside I still think the manager and his shitty coaches need to go.
Makes no sense. It was 11-6. Which is only a 4 run lead with the free runner. Hard, but not impossible. If the inning played out like it did, they would have had the tying run on deck.
There were at least two baserunners picked off while putting on the oven mitt. That’s inexcusable. Make your runner call time. Put on the glove. Then take your lead.
