## Resource

Mets manager Carlos Mendoza might be watching the World Cup on his day off, but he’s got bigger worries — like keeping his team afloat amid injuries and front-office meddling. While fans grumble about athletes needing downtime, Mendoza’s got the pressure of managing a team that’s barely hanging on — and he’s not afraid to admit his calls look brilliant when they work, and awful when they don’t. With his contract option unselected, he’s a lame-duck manager, but with Lindor finally starting his rehab assignment and possibly returning next week, the Mets might just need him more than ever. And while Lindor’s been unfairly criticized, Mendoza’s standing by him — even if their off-field chemistry isn’t perfect, the respect on the field is real.
