Still Here............For Now



Willie Randolph emerged from his meeting with ownership still the manager of the Mets and still on the hot seat. When he was summoned to the offices of Owner (and Lafayette alumn) Fred Wilpon everyone speculated a firing or some kind of punishment but in the end it was just to discuss Willie's comments made last week. That is absolutley absurd because to hold a meeting for a team in dire need of help and only discuss comments that were news for about a day and a half is crazy. Willie is doing an okay job this season but all the scrutiny is from their spectacular collapse last year and in a way that is not fair. Also what upset me is the fact that they said that only the media had high expectations but in my view so did Omar Minaya because he wouldn't have spent all that money if he didn't think they would be good or in contention. This team feels nothing like teams past. In 2006 they could be down 10-0 in the last inning and you still felt like they could come back but this year if they get down 2-0 in the first it feels like the whole game is finished.
