Never got a shot to comment on this yesterday but Holy Hideout Batman you can’t hide out like that!
As I’m 24 hours behind now, you’ve seen Terry is annoyed, you’ve seen The Captain let everyone know he’s annoyed. The mainstream media turned, as I told you they would.
And as I told you all winter, Matt does this to himself. All he had to do was sit at the locker and say he should have pitched better. Just keep saying “I need to make better pitches.”
As discussed everywhere, you can’t Namath up the joint and go on every talk show and now hide. It does not work that way.
Conversely here’s what I know about some other Mets:
Matz is from Long Island. That’s all I know.
JDG has a son. I think that’s all I know about him.
Thor somehow has figured out how to have a nickname and can even walk around in a costume and seem cool. If Batman walked around Times Square in costume I probably would have switched this blog to 24/7 coverage of making of it (not that the blog is that far away from that as it is.)
As soon as The Dark Knight pitches better everyone will love him again and talk about how they stood by him. The MSM will love him and we’ll have all sorts of Batman themed redemption headlines (TDK Rises always comes in handy.)
He’s my 27th favorite Met (behind the other 24, Flores and Wheeler). I hope he pitches better. But feel bad for him? Not at all.
Update – I was reminded Duda is on the DL so let’s make this 28th favorite Met
