Yankees & Mets Surging at Just the Right Time - Jets v Patriots on TNF - Email Reactions

Mike ur so right about Cole he disgraced the pinstripes

[@maxheadroom1207]

an uttah embarassment

[@veritasinvicta8128]

Because Cole obviously cme up with the idea as opposed to Cashman and the analytics team? And Boone throws him under the bus, something he never does unless it's his and Cashman's ass he's covering. Mike acts like he doesn't know.

[@33moneyball]

Cortes had the perfect response….that’s precisely what you want. He should want to start, he should be pissed he was removed from the rotation, he shouldn’t bullshit about it, and he should do whatever the team needs to the absolute best of his ability. 4 for 4. My estimation of the man went up considerably.

Cole has the temperament of men's singles tennis player.

[@etamommy]

Huh ? Well he is fussy and seems easily flustered. Overthinks things. He to me has not proven himself. Has to do so in post season for that. And that hasn’t happened.

[@frontier6937]

Without Iglesias & Vientos, it would have been 2023 all over again. This run could have started early in the year if they had believed in the farm system.

[@davidkast3587]

Yankees should let Cole opt out after this season after they exit early from the postseason again. How many knockout years does he even have left?

[@cambonious23]

I’m sure they would want that, but it is his choice or the team’s choice?

[@Gbrown615]

He doesn't want to leave nor do the Yankees

[@davidkast3587]

@@cambonious23 Here’s how it works. Cole is allowed to opt out after this season if he wishes. He would only do that if he believes he can make more money. If he stays in, he would make 144m over the next four seasons. If he believes opting out would get him more than that, he will do it. HOWEVER, the Yankees can trigger an option and lock him up for an extra year (tenth year of his contract) at the same amount. So he would get 180m over the next five seasons. I’m of the opinion that Cole will start to falter after the 2026 season. There is no way that he pitches like he did in 2023 again.

[@AJice1980]

​@@cambonious23you really think he's gonna give up that contract? I believe it was for 10 years he would never get anywhere close to that money even for the next five years with any other team

Yanks might even be able to rest judge and Soto a day here or there. That would be nice. They’ve shouldered the load all year.

[@angelophilippopoulos9678]

good morning,Mike happy to listen Great stuff as usual blessings...

[@mhvacr_]

Hey Mike , loved the commentary on G. Cole and I totally agree with every word !

[@pablobarosa27]

Is the Jet pass blocking good, or is Rogers getting the ball out in 2.4 seconds? The line is NOT as good as people are claiming. Rogers is good. The RBs are good. Not sure about the line YET.

[@NothingToPointOut24]

Its much better than it was last season, but you are right the QB knowing what he's doing and getting the ball out quicker will always help out the oline One of the biggest reasons for Zack's downfall is him never knowing where he's going with the ball. Rodgers makes the play develop on his one, Wilson waited for the play to develop and then went where he thought he should. And thats why he's a 3rd stringer on Denver now.

Torres is not coming back. Plus even if he is hitting his defense in big spots can and will hurt you in crucial spots. You watch..

[@bundown5463]

Even Rodgers need a competent OC: hence the lack of inclusion of the tight end

[@33moneyball]

Mets have multiple outs now….simply playing even with Arizona gets them in and they also have a 2 game lead on the Braves with 11 to play. 2 teams for 3 spots with the Mets in pole position due to the tiebreaker over AZ. LGM

[@1189paris]

Mike your commentary on Charlie Finley was spot on. Charlie Finley was a visionary and the season by season contracts he wanted to do would had benefited the players, owners and fans more.

[@edwolfe-i1w]

What did Cole do wrong? I missed it

[@Theprophet524]

Intentionally walked Devers with no out and no one one. Things unraveled after that.

[@RIP_Greedo]

Intentionally walked Devers with a 1 run lead and nobody on base, proceeded to unravel and give up 7 runs.

[@etamommy]

@@RIP_Greedoand he had not even given up a hit to that point!!!! Lame move!

[@Theprophet524]

I can understand how the Cole thing bothers people. I think Mike is going overboard as he often does. It's interesting though Mike like Cole before he became a Yankee.

[@bundown5463]

If someone on the FAN would give us an overview of our major sport leagues, my goodness! These young guys are lazy and inept.

[@33moneyball]

Seahawks have excellent offensive and defensive schemers…they also have a bevy of weapons to attack with. The Jets have neither…Hackett is an errand boy running an outmoded scheme that succeeds based on Rodgers execution with one WR and one RB getting virtually every target and a rah rah HC/defensive guy that doesn’t adjust or play chess with the opponent. Jets should certainly win but a spread of 6.5 is ridiculous especially considering how profitable big dogs have been thus far. Pats will pound the rock, kill clock, and keep it close.

[@Beeryee34]

It’s not just the run defense that needs to improve, it’s the coaching. Saleh and Ulbrich are extremely stubborn when running their defense they don’t like to admit when something needs to change. The jets simply cannot keep their 4 d lineman at the line of scrimmage and just hope they play better. Stack the box more and let your pro bowl corners defend against the weak patriot passing offense. I’ll be begging aggravated with saleh if he doesn’t do this.

[@pablobarosa27]

We all know what Cole will do in the playoffs: 5 innings, 4ER, and a loss.

Yankees had a great start and lousy rest of the season. They aren't that good. Can a pitcher be both great and gutless? If so that's Cole.

Something seems off. Mike is gushing about the Mets. Not used to hearing him like this.

[@jackbrereton7286]

Cuz the Mets often aren’t worthy of gushing about in years past. Mike always wanted the Mets to have success for the sake of his show IMO

Saying John Madden never drew Ratings is one of the most ido**ic things i have ever heard someone say and not only that as much as i dislike the Madden Video Games the last decade + his name brand and his vision made Madden into the top sports game in the entire world so stop it Mike Yankees also have different jerseys including the black uniforms which you can buy on Fanatics for 300-400 bucks and have worn them i believe it was against the Dodgers *correct me if im wrong on which team they played wearing the black jerseys*

[@bundown5463]

My respect for Tomlin has gone thru the roof. Considering that we haven't a QB for years, he has gotten them to ready to play, day in and day out: they won't win much, but boy, they come to play.

[@Soxruleyanksdrool]

Giants fan here. My respect for Tomlin is because he has never had a loosing season. Even without the great players they have had, he still manages to finish above .500. That's an all-time great coach right there.

[@bundown5463]

@@Soxruleyanksdrool Indeed

[@dcf4psu]

Problem is that without balance the side carrying can only do it for so long. The Steelers win early and lose late because injuries start to take over on the defense. I think the early season issue with the Jets defense is that they had to carry the team the last two years and it has taken a toll.

[@miked2075]

Forget, Boomer, forget Chris Russo, forget the mink man who went to Jersey and never came back. Michael Francesa has no respect for this thing.

[@sclarke14721]

Take it easy, we’re not making a Western here…..

[@33moneyball]

Jets really feeling the misses on Becton, Moore, and Mims….two seconds on WR and a top 10 pick on an OT turning to nothing is devastating especially when coupled with the second they ultimately had to surrender for Rodgers after Wilson badly flopped. Douglas has built a generally talented team but all those misses essentially forced the Fashanu pick for ‘24 and future OLines going forward. If they take Wirfs or Becton develops into a solid tackle then this team could have Bowers…..in an ideal world Moore is still here in the slot, they hire a real OC and the Jets are a potential juggernaut. Now you’re operating without a second WR, without a real threat at TE, with a decimated defensive line that stinks against the run, with Wilson/Hall absorbing too much of the offense, while running a vanilla scheme, without actual coaches and the possibility of injury ruining the season lurking in the shadows. 10-7, probably a playoff team, maybe a faux contender with tons of injury luck. Will not contend for SB in a meaningful way. Far too much to overcome and the many, many draft misses, offseason losses, and injuries leaving the roster lacking despite some special players.

[@dante6563]

25:51, I shut this shit off once you said they should've drafted Bowers. Ok, old man.
