In this week's MetsBlog Q&Acast, presented by Citi, I call NY Post baseball columnist Kevin Kernan, who is my favorite reporter to speak with when trying to understand the current story of the season.
Kernan and I talk about how injuries are never an excuse for failure, especially in this day and age of two Wild Card slots. We talk about David Wright's preseason warning and how it came to fruition. We also discuss Terry Collins, and what it will take to save his job for 2017.
However, my favorite part of the conversation comes at the end, when I bring up the idea that pitching so deep in to October last year may have set this year's pitching staff up to fail.
