" Johan Santana is fine. His knee is fine his foot is -- his hand every other body part seems to be checking out okay. It wasn't Santana is fault the Mets lost today to the Tampa Bay Rays more it was still lack of offense. This an issue with the Mets that isn't going away when you look at their statistics. They aren't so bad. Going into today's game they were first in the National League in batting average first in on base percentage and fifth in the league in runs scored. When asked Obama and I yesterday their general manager which was they're bigger need offense or pitching. He kind of -- he wasn't sure how to answer the question. Clearly the Mets could use more power. But the same time there worried about their pitching. Remember right now they've got Fernando Nieve. Tim Redding and Levon Hernandez all in their rotation. Obviously -- has given them a -- so far but they can't expect to win with those three guys all season. People to list plus the set up man J. J. Putz so really they have issues in both the starting rotation without Oliver Perez and John Maine. And also the bullpen as they try to find a bridge to Francisco Rodriguez. This type of game though is the kind that we'll get talk show callers in New York's screaming. Go get a bat. We'll just have to see with the Mets do over the next six weeks."
