“I said “important,” but only because they need to win some goddamn games, not because it’s the Mets.”

WRT, you said exactly what I was going to say, in exactly the same words.

ditto with what has already been said… just to win games and get the offense going; not because they are specifically playing the mets.

They need to win every game they play. Obviously, that doesn’t mean they will, but that’s the requisite mindset.

If you are asking is it more important to play well against the Mets than other teams, then the answer is no.

I said “important,” but only because they need to win some goddamn games, not because it’s the Mets.
