Roberto Osuna Jersey Its just getting connected as the family we are."Part of the discu sion included the Mets' offensive woes that have seen them get into a number of early deficits as of late.Lets keep trusting, lets have fun out there, all those things. Not being repetitive, but just bringing up some points of us maybe falling behind in games early, what does that mean? There are different games out there, but our attitudes dont change.
