Centerfield Old-Timey Member Posted June 24, 2019 Posted June 24, 2019 There's gotta be more to it than this right? I'm trying to think of the worst, sleeziest, snarkiest way someone can say this that would make a guy go off like that. I can't picture it. Let's unfold what happened.*Tim Healey, beat writer for Newsday, says to Mickey after the presser "See you tomorrow Mickey".*Mickey responds by cursing him out, calling him a MF*Mickey comes back out, cursing him out again.*Vargas gets violent and has to be physically restrained.There's gotta be some history there right? Healey's one of the good guys on the beat. Not afraid to take ownership to task when necessary, critical but fair to the Mets. I hope the Callaway presser provides some details about any perceived slight. I'm guessing it will just be "miscommunication".
Johnny Lunchbucket Old-Timey Member Posted June 24, 2019 Posted June 24, 2019 Well I think Mickey was unnerved by the questioning and interpreted the "see ya tomorrow" remark as a flippant and passive-aggressive comment on his unraveling job security.OTOH, Mickey is apparently managing tonight which makes me think he can perhaps get away with still more. Miurder?
whippoorwill Old-Timey Member Posted June 24, 2019 Posted June 24, 2019 Healey claims he just said as he would any other day‘See ya tomorrow' like you would say ‘ things will be better tomorrow'

Centerfield Old-Timey Member Posted June 24, 2019 Author Posted June 24, 2019 I thought about that. That is a real stretch no? I feel like that warrants a "What's that supposed to mean you little shit?" Or "Yeah, real funny, wiseass." But dropping MF's and coming back out to curse him out again?
metirish Old-Timey Member Posted June 24, 2019 Posted June 24, 2019 I think it's plausible that Callaway has had enough , he is being held back and told what to do by a slick GM....he flipped and this was it

Edgy MD Site Manager Posted June 24, 2019 Posted June 24, 2019 Honey, I've decided it's time for me to work blue.It's funny, but it seems Mickey's little tirade has to some degree taken the spotlight off the disastrous game decisions that precipitated it.
ashie62 Old-Timey Member Posted June 24, 2019 Posted June 24, 2019 The Mets can fire Mickey about the same time they become sellers. Possibly after the Phlly series. 2019 Mets brought to you by Kahns
metirish Old-Timey Member Posted June 24, 2019 Posted June 24, 2019 I am really note sure if Heyman is joking but he tweets that the Mets plan to get Callway and Healey together today in a room....Puma tweeting the Mets will hold a team meeting today...............it's becoming a weekly thing now

G-Fafif Old-Timey Member Posted June 24, 2019 Posted June 24, 2019 Based on what I gleaned from the press availabilities provided by Van Wagenen, Callaway and Vargas, they're all dismal people.
A Boy Named Seo Old-Timey Member Posted June 24, 2019 Posted June 24, 2019 I love how Vargas described it as an "unfortunate distraction" like it was a fender bender caused by someone else that made him late for an appointment instead of he and Mickey losing their tempers and acting like dickhead bros.
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted June 24, 2019 Posted June 24, 2019 And like the real victim isn't Healey, but the general focus of the baseball club.Newsday is still a key radio sponsor, aren't they?
