00:00Mets beat the Orioles 7-6 in 10 innings last night.
00:03Mets were down, Scotty, 6-2 in this game going into the 8th inning.
00:07They got a two-run homer from Francisco Lindor.
00:10And then a two-run shot from the Polar Bear to tie him up before they won it on SNY.
00:17And he hits one in the air to deep right center.
00:19Back goes Mullins to the warning track at the wall.
00:22It's out of here!
00:23Pete Alonzo ties the game with a two-run homer!
00:30Lindor and Alonzo, two-run shots in the 8th.
00:35And the Mets get even at 6-6.
00:38This guy's been the best player on the Mets, hands down, no questions asked.
00:43And the owner didn't want to pay him.
00:45Remember, I mean, he held out on this guy until he was literally one foot into Canada
00:50getting ready to play for the Jays.
00:52Imagine what the Jays would be like with the team that they have rolling this year
00:57if they had Alonzo in that lineup on top of what they already have.
01:01I mean, think about it for one second.
01:03Because Alonzo has carried the Mets, in my opinion.
01:06I don't deny Lindor, and I don't deny that Soto over the last month has really turned it on.
01:13I can't believe he's not an all-star, but it is what it is.
01:16They shafted him on purpose.
01:17I think it's simple why they shafted him.
01:20You said it's because every team has to get a guy in.
01:23And I think it's because of how much money he makes.
01:25I think they don't like him.
01:26Now everyone hates him because he makes all this money.
01:29And people, these media types, they're jealous of him.
01:33They can't stand the fact that that guy's making that much money.
01:36I honestly believe that.
01:37There is not a guy in the history of the game, literally, that's put up the numbers
01:42this guy puts up and didn't make an all-star game.
01:45I mean, it's just fact.
01:47That's all there is to it.
01:48There's never been a guy that's put up these numbers that didn't make the all-star game.
01:50Then they keep him out.
01:52Why?
01:52Why do they keep him out?
01:53They don't like him?
01:54Probably.
01:55That's what it is.
01:57Well, of course, he's making 40, just north of 46, $47 million this season alone.
02:04We know how much he's getting for his entire contract.
02:07He would have got an extra 100,000 if he made the all-star game.
02:12And he still might.
02:13Of course, there's a lot of replacements that are being named as we speak.
02:17But apparently, he really wanted that 100,000, Scotty.
02:20Money is what drives the man.
02:23He must have needed to add 10 or 20 Blackstones into the backyard.
02:26Here's Juan Soto on not making the team.
02:28Would you have liked to make the all-star team?
02:30What do you think?
02:32I don't know.
02:32Some people want to take vacation.
02:33I mean, I think it's a lot of money on the table if I make it.
02:38A lot of money on the table.
02:39Just so we're clear.
02:40Yeah, let's just be clear.
02:41These guys make so much money in baseball and in the NBA that whenever there's incentive bags on the table, they cannot get enough of it.
02:57I mean, these guys would rather have those extra bags of money than lovers.
03:02You know, and you can't give them anything that they like.
03:07You could give them a Rolex and they'd roll their eyes.
03:10They don't care about stuff like that.
03:12All they care about is more money.
03:14It's always about more money.
03:16Why did he go to the Mets?
03:18Who leaves the Yankees unless they get more money?
03:22There is no one that leaves the Yankees unless.
03:25And when they made him an offer, what were they, 10 million shy of what the Mets gave him?
03:30He literally left over like pennies.
03:33Pennies to him.
03:3410 million to him is pennies.
03:35No, it was the family atmosphere.
03:37Remember, the Mets often that family atmosphere and the sweet.
03:42And that's really why he went to the Mets.
03:45It wasn't the 10 million.
03:46How about when they had stories that he had his own plane, which was a lie.
03:50Yeah, his own private plane to use.
03:53But people believed it.
03:55He'll probably be added to the game.
03:58He'll be added to the game.
03:59By this Saturday.
