Where is the Heart? Not in Willie's chest.

I'm totally disgusted with this team. The Mets need to get rid of Witless Willie ASAP. He has such a lazy, It doesn't matter, I don't care, attitude that it's now effecting the team.

I listened to his post slaughter press conference and couldn't believe what I heard. He said these games don't matter, "I don't believe the Phillies are in our heads", "Mota pitched well", "we'll just go win the next 10 out of 12 games", "yesterday's lost didn't effect us". Talk about clueless and witless. It's no wonder the Mets can't beat the Phillies. It doesn't sound like he cares at all about preparing this team to play them. THAT'S THE MANAGER'S JOB !!! To prepare the team. When asked if he was or did talk to the players after the game he said " There's no need to do that" What a idiot. I'd be trashing that locker room and telling them that any more games like that is going to get people benched and or demoted.

About the only thing good in this game was David Wright hit his 30th home run. He now joins HoJo and Straw as the only Mets to be in the 30-30 club. As usual, it was a drive into the opposite field bullpen. I believe that's 14 opposite field dingers for David.

Another good thing to see was Joe Smith in a game again. He hit Rowland, but struck out the last 2 batters of the inning. He got cheers when he left the field. That's because he actually got the batters out, and didn't give up any runs. I hope he gets more time the next 3 weeks. I'd like to see him on the postseason roster. But, Willie already has a spot reserved for Mota there.

Can someone explain to me why Brian Low-Rents is starting tomorrow? Why not Humber? We already know Low-Rents can't get anyone out and gives up 5-6 runs/game. Pelfrey is starting Wednesday. Why not start Pelfrey tomorrow, and then Maine can pitch the Wednesday game on normal rest? I guess that only makes sense to me, and not the Witless Wonder Willie. We as fans might as well figure tomorrow's game as a loss too. It will take a miracle for Low-Rents to win.

This whole El Duque foot problem settles the rotation issues. If, and that's a big if, the Mets win the division, El Duque should be in the pen. He once again is breaking down at the end of the season. With him, Humber, Sosa, Schoeneweis, Feliciano, Wagner, Smith, and Heilman they will have all the pitchers needed in the pen. Mota should be sent packing ASAP. Maybe he and Willie can go for a cab ride around D.C. before the game tomorrow. Somehow I think that's the only way we'll get rid of them.
