Gio still not sold that Mets could be in for 'special' season: 'I've been burned too many times'

Gio's Mets are riding high, five games over .500 for the first time since the beginning of last season after finishing a Subway Series sweep of the Yankees on Wednesday night.

But even after sweeping away the Yanks for the first time in 11 years, Gio isn't sold that the Mets are set to have a special season in 2024.


"Expectations have been raised and the fanbase has been activated, but I can't get there yet," Gio said. "I know that sounds crazy…but I can't personally get myself to the 'this team can do special things' spot."

The Mets are in a Wild Card spot with a chance to continue to rise, and the lineup looks transformed ever since the red-hot Francisco Lindor was moved to the leadoff spot. Still, Gio will wait a bit longer before officially jumping on the bandwagon.

"Doesn't mean I'm down on them or being negative," Gio said. "I've been burned many times. I'm not saying I'm not enjoying it…I'm having a lot of fun watching it."
