Yesterday on the blog, immediately following the Mets’ 1-0 loss to the Washington Nationals, I wrote that I no longer endorse Willie Randolph as manager. Furthermore, I could see him being fired as early as in two weeks from now.

With a 1-0 loss this afternoon, the Mets have finished their latest homestand with a 3-4 record, one that included the Cincinnati Reds and Washington Nationals. Both the Reds and Nats are last place teams, both have inferior rosters in comparison with the Mets.

Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Micah Owings is a good hitter…and by good I mean DY-NO-MITE hitter.
