Stearns also said he expects Pete to be the Mets starting 1B next season. On one hand that’s good, but on the other hand he hit .220. Like Sarc said above, that also ain’t gonna get it done. I listened to part of the presser. Seemed like every other word was "ummm" I assume he's better at baseball management than public speaking.

The day after abject failure ends I really am not ready to hear about the bright and shiny future.

But he hopes everyone pays now... I'm going to listen to the whole thing. But I was struck by how awkward he sounded. Maybe it will look better seeing the video. Or maybe it's just me.

Yea Buck knew Vogey was an anchor on the lineup but was forced to play him. Vogey is the first and the biggest piece of dead wood to get rid of. A No Brainer. I liked Buck but a new Mgr with a new GM. Buck doesn't need this at his age. Go back to the baseball channel and have fun. Let's get a young Mgr. to go with a young team. We can concentrate on pitching the entire off season. Between the Mets and the Giants this year "Oh Brother".

See ya later Eppler. Day 3 for Stearns is last day for Eppler. Which is fine because he is wasn’t good. Those stories of him forcing Buck to use Danny Burgers, not good.

I concur. My sentiment completely. It's amazing that we all were wondering how could they keep playing Fred Flintstone, or why he was even taking up a roster spot, and the manager was wondering the same thing.

We need to clean up the mess. You do not sign grandpa to anchor the pitching staff and expect to win.

Eppler gone is the most positive step so far. Now all we need is a young mgr and about 10-11 pitchers that can get people out and stay healthy. Hopefully the first big signing is that Japanese pitcher that is suppose to be so good.
I was really hoping the Mets could do it going into this year. That's why the disappointment hurt so much.

I can’t believe the Rangers are starting Sherzer tonight. I guess ALCS Game 7 is as far as they want to go. Very little chance he doesn’t get shelled.

It's nice to see some different teams. I was amazed the d backs won 2 in Philadelphia. Thought they might snag one, but happy to see it.

Anyone who loves baseball has to love this matchup. Maybe not the 2 best teams, but it's going to be a dog fight. Can't wait to watch it.

Scherzer out in 3 innings because of back tightness...

In today’s edition of “In case you were worried the Mets wouldn’t always be the Mets”. We have hired this douche bench coach you’ve never heard of. “He distinguished himself in interviews “. Lord Jesus help me.

Lord Jesus help me. This is Stearn's hire, this is his guy. He either lost out on Counsell or preferred to go another way, either way I think he owe it to both of them to see how it plays. It could be worse, it could've been Boone.
