Collins, no dummy, knows he would’ve already received a vote of confidence, even in private, if Alderson and Jeff Wilpon were entirely sold on his body of work. Both men know what job security — or its absence — does to a manager’s standing in the clubhouse. Without a commitment from ownership, Collins looks like a short-timer on a bad team, a latter-day George Bamberger.

I’ve become less of a Collins fan as time has passed. The lineup is what it is, but what’s maddening is how wildly inconsistent the team plays from day to day and week to week. Of course I’m maddeningly inconsistent at golf and pool, too, and it’s because I suck at them and just get lucky sometimes, so maybe that’s what’s going on.
Regardless, my biggest complaint is that much like Randolph, Collins always seems lost for answers beyond, “We just need to keep doing what we’re doing until we snap out of it.” That’s bull. A lot of things change over the course of 162 games, and if what you’re doing isn’t working, you have to make adjustments.
Agree with your comments 100% Shannon!
I guess it’s not a question of if, but when
Before or after the All Star break ?
