Why is there talk of a new hitting coach?

The Mets never cease to amaze me. The latest talk I hear is that the Mets are interested in the hitting coach from the Rangers. His name is Jaramillo. Does anyone out there wonder why Omar is looking to hire this guy?

HoJo did a good job while he was hitting coach. For the 1st time in his career, David Wright's production increased in the 2nd half, Green was smoking the ball, and Lo Duca had the best September of his career. The only one who failed to hit the second half was Josie Reyes and Delgado. Delgado crashed and burned this season, and I don't hold out much hope for him returning to his past production. I guess having a child was so much of a strain on his home life, that he carried that to the batter's box. Josie Reyes is lost. I don't know if it was Henderson's influence of just coincidence, but Reyes went into a skid as soon as Ricky stood at 1st base. I hope Reyes isn't turning into a little punk, or worse, like so many younger players today. The last time I saw someone on the Mets crash and burn like Josie was when Gooden and Strawberry were keeping the Colombian economy humming along by way of their noses. Let's hope he's not going down that road to destruction.

Omar should be worried about getting rid of Mota, and finding some pitching help for the pen. He should also be burning up the frequent flier miles working on Santana or Peavy. Pitching should be his focus, not on hiring another one of his buddies. Willie and Omar have a habit of playing and hiring their friends, instead of putting the team first. That's one of the problems the Mets had this year. They were more worried about hurting players feelings, and "trusting their boys" instead of winning games. They certainly didn't put the best players on the field everyday. I just hope that the rumor I heard about Witless Willie's and Omar's future being tied together is true. As I heard it, the Wilpon's told Omar that if Willie fails to get the team to the post season next year, they are both gone.
