Mike Francesa Calls Matt Harvey "Cinderella," Blames Everyone In His Opening Rant On The Mets

The Resurrection. The destruction. The neutering. The Dark Knight turned into a…dark night. Taking your foot off the gas pedal. Perfect. Could not be more spot on. Great, articulate, opener from Francesa today. Its not even necessarily the outcome, like Mike said. Will the Nationals make this interesting? Maybe. Probably not. That doesnt mean the Mets have not completely botched this stretch run. From Sinduhrella to the manager to the front office to everyone in between, they are embarrassing themselves as much as a team with a 6 game lead can.

The neutering comment is so spot on. This team exploded in the 2nd half and became a force to be reckoned with, just like Harvey’s rise in his early career. And now both the player and the team look so soft. So stupid. So overwhelmed. Stumbling, fumbling, bumbling. Wilting like a flower. Getting pushed around the ring by Scott fucking Boras. The Devil his goddam self. Intimidation factor of Matt Harvey and the Mets right now is sitting nicely at about a 0.

Need SOMEONE with a back bone to stand up. Harvey, Collins, Alderson. Wright. Someone. Anyone. Stand the fuck up and say this is stupid lets go win the goddam division. Play baseball because you’re a goddam baseball player.

PS – Mike isnt even a Mets fan but that “…it makes you CRAZY” was so perfect. It genuinely makes me lose my mind how they operate. Best season in years and they still find weird fuckin ways to make it miserable.
