But if he continues this another two weeks, then yeah. We have to do something. <BR/><BR/>I don't know that there was a legitimate option for Minaya to figure out in the off season (Morgan Ensberg? nah..) as a bench player that could contribute long term at 1b. <BR/><BR/>I agree with Alou, Mainly because if we were going to sign an injury prone left fielder, i'd have kept Floyd, and to do it twice, well..<BR/><BR/>I've been thinking about it, and as much as I like Endy, I think his resigning was a mistake too. Sure he's a great defensive guy, but you can't reliably pinch hit him late in the game when you'd really like some power. And when you do put him in late, and he comes up in extra innings, he lacks that power to end the game in one swing. This really ties in with Delgado..the Mets don't have enough power. <BR/><BR/>For much of last summer, we had one of the highest .avg ratings in the game, but with Alou out and Delgado strugging, there was a lot of stranding runners.Ceetarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11667811940029102506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36516653.post-57659431116398642912008-04-23T14:16:00.000-04:002008-04-23T14:16:00.000-04:00Oh, and btw, go check out my latest, A Letter Home...Oh, and btw, go check out my latest, A Letter Home From Carlos.... hee hee hee :) !Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14926167077492487461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36516653.post-29552205138392257092008-04-23T10:35:00.000-04:002008-04-23T10:35:00.000-04:00*Sigh*We did have some rather ballsy managers in t...*Sigh*<BR/><BR/>We did have some rather ballsy managers in the past, didn't we, Coop?<BR/><BR/>Too bad Willie isn't one of them *sigh,* because I think that's what this team needs right now, and could have used at the end of last year, which I swear I'm not going to talk about again until I do.
