Delgado, he's an albatross if we could put him in the package with the idea that whover gets him will only have him for three months I'd do that, but there's no way he'll be released, I mean we're talking about one Minaya's favorite guys. I balk at losing a guy like Beltran. The lead off idea is interesting, I would give it a try. He's a great centerfielder--great.<BR/><BR/>Am I the only guy who wouldn't have wept if we took Gomez and Mulvey off the table and offered Reyes?TWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04619620902215995000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36516653.post-59826637123839797522008-05-17T20:30:00.000-04:002008-05-17T20:30:00.000-04:00Lot of sense in there Coop, including batting Belt...Lot of sense in there Coop, including batting Beltran leadoff and starting Heilman.<BR/><BR/>But to do that we'd have to fire Willie, so it's one step at a time.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15398931203483061703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36516653.post-4228867747147256162008-05-16T21:08:00.000-04:002008-05-16T21:08:00.000-04:00I know Julie - for a team that has so many resourc...I know Julie - for a team that has so many resources, you'd think they'd realize that Jerry Manuel is just one part of Willie Randolph. So is Peterson. Get rid of all of them. <BR/><BR/>Nice to see you here HJMJ! What site is MM? Metsmerized? Thanks for stopping by <BR/><BR/>and Deb and CMG, I always say I can junk ball like the best of em.

A shake-up is what's needed most of all. <BR/><BR/>How about this? Put the numbers 1 through 9 in a hat and have them each pick one -- that's where they bat.<BR/><BR/>Wagner can be manager, since he only works one inning every now and then anyway.<BR/><BR/>You know there are guys in New Orleans who are seeing this lack of hustle and thinking "well, shit! call me up -- I'll play my fucking ass off!" Get them.<BR/><BR/>Most of all, Willie's gotta go. Soon. Like... what time is it?

I think there is a certain resentment about hitting behind Wright instead of in front of him.

But there were no alluring alternatives. There aren't now either; bench coach Jerry Manuel would probably be the interim caretaker. But that isn't protection for Randolph now."Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02569571498553763419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36516653.post-4795594170896938032008-05-16T09:59:00.000-04:002008-05-16T09:59:00.000-04:00I agree with just about everything you said, but I...I agree with just about everything you said, but I don't think any of it will happen, and if it does, it won't be at the same time.<BR/><BR/>I think Willie has a big chance of losing his job sometime this year. Ditto entire coaching staff, and maybe before Willie. I don't think they'll release Delgado under any circumstances, although if he bats .100 and drops one out of every two throws over to first, I might change my mind there. <BR/><BR/>I also agree that this isn't a New York kind of team, and for the money spent, the value stinks.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14926167077492487461noreply@blogger.com
