Heyman: Peterson, Johnson May Be Fired With Randolph

I’ve written about my displeasure with Mets pitching coach Rick Peterson a couple of time recently. Apparently I’m not the only one feeling this way. In an article for SI.com Jon Heyman says that manager Willie Randolph may fired this weekend but possibly as early as today. Heyman’s sources say that if (when?) Randolph is […]

Mets Win In 13th

I sat down to watch the game last night at about 10 minutes to 8:00 pm. The game was already into the fourth inning. I saw Mike Pelfrey retire the last batter of the half inning then SNY cut to a commercial. When the bottom half of the inning started I got comfortable and was […]



Alou To Have MRI

Moises Alou will not be in the lineup tonight. That’s right. Two at bats after coming off the DL Alou will be undergoing an MRI instead. Alou was never expected to play every game but this is ridiculous.



Who Else Should Go When Randolph Is Fired

“It’s not the heat. It’s the humility.” – Yogi Berra Those words must be going through Willie Randolph’s head these days. His team is 30-33, 7 1/2 games out of first place and fading fast. The team has been struggling all year but gave a glimmer of hope with a 7-3 run after Memorial Day. […]



Carter Blames Media

It seems like Gary Carter is taking a lot of heat for campaigning for the Mets managerial job. People are saying that it wasn’t right of him considering that the job is still occupied by Willie Randolph. I say the opposite. If someone is interested in the job then now is the right time to […]



Willie Not Only One Who Needs To Go

Looks like Willie Randolph survived the weekend and even got lukewarm votes of confidence from GM Omar Minaya and ownership. That should buy him at least a little time. I’m sure he knows that a vote of confidence with the current feelings around Shea are not much more than a momentary thing. He knows it […]



Willie Isn’t Dumb

Willie Randolph sounded less than confident about his status as the team’s manager when speaking to reporters yesterday. He referred to Omar Minaya “sharpening his machete” in Colorado. Willie’s no dummy. He should know from experience that just because someone gives you a vote of confidence doesn’t mean your safe. How many times did Willie […]



Minaya Going To Denver

Omar Minaya is heading to Denver to watch the Mets play the Colorado Rockies. Prelude to a firing?



Unemployed

I posted about a week ago about how my real job was keeping me too busy to post here at MostlyMets. I didn’t have very much free time to post during the day due to a big project I was working on. The thanks I got from the company for pushing the project forward was […]
