Has Jerry Seen the Light?

While at work today I listened as the Mets took care of business as they should. They jumped out to an early lead on the strength of David's bat and good pitching from Pedro. Then every Mets fan's nightmare once again was replayed. The starter left with a lead, the Pen did it's usual worst, and the Mets once again lose to a sub .500 team.

Once again Feliciano, Heilman, Schoeneweis can't throw strikes and give away the game. The only target they seem capable of hitting is the batter. Both Heilman and Feliciano hit batters and they gave up critical runs and lost the game. Scotty boy then comes in to try to clean up Heilman's mess, and gives up a bases loaded hit that scores 2 runs and seals the defeat. I'm so sick of seeing the same old bullshit pitchers doing the same old shit I've had it. If it was up to me, Heilman, Feliciano, Schoeneweis, Sanchez, would never see another game in a Mets uniform. Send them to the minors, trade them, or release them. They all suck and have proven scores of times that they can't do the job of getting outs when needed.

I think Jerry has finally had it too. In his post-game news conference he said changes will be made and things can not continue as they have been. When asked if he had confidence in the bull-pen, he said he had confidence in the team. Not exactly an ringing endorsement about the pen. I do believe we will finally see Eddie Kunz closing games after today. A reporter asked Jerry if today's game means he will now look to Eddie to close games. Jerry said he'd seriously have to consider it. He said he didn't want to but he may not have any other choice. Eddie has pitched pretty well in his limited innings here in NY. He gave up a HR in his 2nd game and had a run score on a wild pitch the other day. Personally, I don't call it a wild pitch when the ball hits the pocket of the catcher's mitt, but isn't caught. I call that a passed ball. Either way Eddie certainly can't do any worse than the current bums trying to close games and get late inning outs.

If Eddie does indeed start closing games until Billy's return, he needs an entry song. Billy uses "Enter the Sandman", so Eddie needs a nasty song to enter the stadium to and to get the fans pumped up. I've been a Heavy Metal fan as long as I've been following music and I have a great song for Eddie to use. "You've got Another Thing Coming" by Judas Priest would be a 100% kick ass song for a big hard throwing closer to enter to. Check it out.

I've seen Priest in concert twice and this song is an absolute head banging, fist pumping, get you charged up song and I can't think of anything better for Eddie to enter to. What do you out there think? Wouldn't you love to be in Shea when this song blast thru the P.A. system and Eddie does his Wild Thing Strut out to the mound? Lets here your thoughts and suggestions.
