Today’s Top Story, which I won’t put any better than the Times will…I’ll just add that we might as well find out if Niese is good. Throw him in the Phillies fire.
We know that the Mets and the rest of MLB don’t believe in Figueroa, so all I am saying is Give Niese A Chance.
Perez Struggles, Putting Future in Doubt
Another miserable outing Saturday left Oliver Perez embarrassed and General Manager Omar Minaya considering yanking him from the rotation.
Because he has more than five years of service time, Perez, who has a minor league option, would have to agree to a demotion.
“If I need it, then I have to go because right now I don’t help my team,†he said. “Right now, I don’t feel I’m doing my job.â€
He added: “I feel embarrassed. I’m not doing anything for the team. That’s not easy.â€
In case Mr. Minaya is wondering, Derek Lowe is 3-1 with a 3.03 ERA.
