Willie's win percentage among Met managers, courtesy of UMDB, who already has Manuel penciled in as a 0-0 manager.

2	Willie Randolph	4	555	302	253	0	.544	64.5

pretty meaningless numbers imo.
every team came with wildly different expectations, and even with different reasonable expectations.

Wow, I'm poinding out meaningless posts.

Feel free to add meaning.

It's a little surprising that Willie ended up with a higher winning percentage than Bobby Valentine. That's because it's easy to forget 2002, when Bobby went 75-86 (.466)

If Bobby had left the Mets after 2001, he would have been at .547.

Making that defecit up would be a great reason for Valentine to return.

Managing a team full of suck would be a bad reason for Valentine to return.

I think they should let Yogi interim-manage for a few games to see if he can get over .500.

Mike Cubbage could move up five places with one win.
