Mendoza Faces Pressure, Flips Mets Season Focus

0:00It's April 29th. Welcome in. This is New York Mets News today, where your team meets AI. I'm Cory with the story. Mets manager Carlos Mendoza is facing heat with the team's rough 9-19 start this season. He's made it clear he hasn't had any chats with executive at Sterns about his job status. Fans are buzzing because other teams like the Red Sox and Phillies just act their skips. Alex Cora and Rob Thompson after slow starts. Those spirings hit close to home for Mendoza. He called it a tough business reality when results don't show up. Thompson's even been a mentor to him, so seeing that go down stings extra. Mendoza's not dodging the pressure though. He gets why it happens in this league and owns the spotlight on his own squad. No excuses, just stray focus. Right now, he's all about squeezing the best from his players every day. No time for what ifs when you've got a 3 game set against the Washington Nationals kicking off Tuesday.

1:00His job security hangs in the balance, but Mendoza's locked in on flipping this met season before it's too late.
