A twofer here Hilary Duffy Dyer: ] With expectations low going into the season I think the Mets can surprise people, what do you think? People describe it as a surprise, but the Mets - when healthy - do have good players on this team. I would not be surprised at all to see them contend for a playoff spot. I think they have the talent to do it. Happy birthday, BTW. Mike Cumrie: ] If the Mets get of to a slow start are Jerry and or Omar gone, lets say after 50 games the Mets are under .500, then what? Jerry would be the first to go. Regardless of what happens, however, I think Omar will make it until the end of the season before he is fired. A dismal start could sink Jerry by the end of May and I think that Bob Melvin would take over.
