No one?....

"History of being a winning manager"? Overall he has a winning % of .511.....with the Mets it's .488....career .509....regardless of those numbers he's never won anything as a manager. His 2000 WS finished first and went 0-3 in the ALDS. probably better to say he has complied a winning record as a manager.

There's only so much water any bullpen can carry. Agree strongly. It's like JM's managing the game to get to the bullpen (which he equates with the win), rather than to actually win. He does roughly the same thing with offense, too, on a more microcosmic scale-- put the team in position to score a run, rather than working to actually plate runs (bunt to advance the runner, not to score the runner, e.g.). Agree with the Minaya led Mets bullpen building....but when he needed to get it help after Wagner went down in August '08 he didn't. So much importance was placed on the bullpen but they didn't or couldn't get the help that year.

IGT 05/19/2010 Dickey Debuts in DC; Mets vs. Nationals
metirish replied to Benjamin Grimm's topic in Archived Game Threads
Like Dickey lets hope it;s not one and done..... -
Jerry , Jerry and again Jerry. To continually call for the same plays with the same results is unforgivable.
-
Yeah I would , Ramirez is the better player IMO.His current shenanigans while disturbing wouldn't be a deal breaker. What about Reyes though?

Wright is tonights Biggest Loser

I like this Martino fella....seems like a bit of a smart ass which helps the chats.

Funny [Comment From Chris Carter] Hey Andy, will I take Frenchy's job away? You could if you keep playing over your head and Francoeur keeps struggling, but keep in mind you can't really play the outfield. I don't know if Jerry told you, but you're probably starting in LF for Bay tonight. He might not have, he forgot to tell Francoeur yesterday that he was benched after assuring him Sunday it was just one day.

Funny stuff people Ever notice that Jeff squints and his nose wiggles when he talks, I couldn't help[ but notice it yesterday .

Martz to have Tommy John surgery today.
-
What an attitude from Ramirez.

Lennon twitted Turner Field organ playing NKOTB's "The Right Stuff" for Wright's at-bats....... after I read that I paid attention and sure enough they were, away players don't get at-bat music normally?
-
Steve Phillips on with Francesa when asked about Valentine hesitated before saying he was the wrong person to ask about Bobby. Then made the point that if there was change it woul,dn't be Valentine because hiring from outside would force the Mets to go through an interview process with other candidates or risk a fine and pissing of MLB.

Then cut him, any good team can rest the regular players , give them a blow as Eddie C would say.
-
Matthews in a pinch hitting roll is doing nothing, they should start him in all the games this series and if his current form holds up then cut him, maybe he needs a run of games to get going.

Well done , well done....

Being with Lord Joe surely has made Bowa not only a better manager but a better person.
-
If it means anything....Burkhardt is tweeting that a "team source" told him Omar is not in Atlanta to fire Jerry......Burkhardt opines that two bad games here and that will change.
-
Oh sorry , i didn't realize Bay was on the Mets....my bad.... yeah it's an old list..... hardly takes form this thread though.
