David Stearns Backs Mendoza, But Mets Pressure Builds

Evan Roberts and Shaun Morash react to the breaking Mets news that Carlos Mendoza is not in imminent danger of losing his job, despite the team’s ugly slide and another frustrating managerial decision. The conversation turns quickly from Mendoza’s status to the bigger issue facing the organization, with David Stearns under pressure to explain how this roster got here and why fans should believe a turnaround is coming. The episode digs into accountability at the top, from Stearns’ roster construction to Steve Cohen’s public silence when things go bad. Evan and the crew debate whether a managerial change could still become inevitable, why a simple vote of confidence may not be enough, and how the Mets’ upcoming road trip could intensify the scrutiny around everyone in charge.
