But 7 years later the Mets won the WS. Start the clock on our buccos!
It's hard to see a brighter future for this team with Shelton at the helm. I get so tired of the platitudes rather than just saying we stink up any place we go. It's time these guys look themselves in the mirror. Why doesn't Tucker or Alford learn how to bunt so he can get on base, then steal second and then third just make things happen. Make the bunt a real threat if you can't hit. Use what you have. I guess it's hard to re-invent yourself but .198 BA isn't going to get it. We have to find those guys who aren't world class at everything to get very good at a few things. What I see on the field is a couple of guys with great skills and a bunch of guys with average skills and just hoping to find success. Find a few things you can do hone those things and success brings more success. Bunt steal second and third maybe someone can sacrifice you in. The next time your up the 3rd baseman moves in and that little roller you hit might get by him. Keep the chain moving. Anyway that is the philosity I wish this manager would instill in these guys not excuses. I can't stand the guy. It's time to move on Cherington.
For half- probably >half- these guys, it's spring training and little else.
