Good morning Mets fans, the best read of the early morning is from Bob Klapisch who suggests that if 2011 has started, it’s time for Jerry to go:
If the Mets have any chance of changing the culture in the clubhouse, they need a new message from above, starting with the manager: Bobby Valentine is exactly whom the Mets need, but as we’ve speculated before, the Wilpons don’t have the stomach (or, likely, the cash) to hire him. Wally Backman very well could get the job, as he’s proving (again) that he’s able to get the most out of young players. Backman’s Class A Brooklyn Cyclones have the best record in the New York-Penn League.
