Paul Lukas Says: Good Riddance Piazza

Wow I thought I was harsh with my “Mike Piazza is a Dodger” rap.
Among the gems on ESPN Page 2:

When it became apparent that he’d have to move from catcher to first base, Piazza’s behavior ranged from disingenuous to manipulative.

and

Quoting Piazza: I thought the DH could be a good thing for me later in my career,” he said, “but now I see that it’s bad for baseball, because the pitcher can throw at the batter with no fear of retaliation.” So what did he do after leaving the Mets? He shopped himself to American League teams with hopes of becoming a DH. None of them were interested, so he signed with the Padres, but then he went to the A’s, where he happily DH’d. Hypocrite.

and

Put an L.A. cap on him and let’s pretend New York never happened.

However, I think the observations about Mike’s relationship status are lame. Who cares dude.

>Willie Watch: Mazzilli

>

Again I don’t want to steal other people’s hard work – this is from Newsday and Neil Best, but as Mazzilli Central I thought we should share.

Best transcribed Mazzilli on Willie. Here’s a snippet

“I had a problem with that article, because he felt that it was kind of off the record. I know what Willie was going through by just chatting with this writer. I feel that there’s an obligation for the journalist to ask that person if you really want to say this.

>Atlanta Laughs At You, Me, Omar, Fred & Willie

>

Among the things the Atlanta Journal-Constitution wrote that will annoy you:

For 2 1/4 seasons the Mets have acted as if they’re the National League’s best team, but the cold truth is that they haven’t been anything special since 2006. They fell to historic pieces last fall — 12 losses in their final 17 games — and this year, when they are supposed to prove that collapse was an epic fluke, they’ve proved only that they’re both overheated and undermanaged.

And here, not for the first or even the hundredth time, we see why the Braves remain the gold standard of communal harmony. They don’t throw 25 players together without consideration for compatibility. (Remember when Sports Illustrated hailed Mets GM Omar Minaya as a “Mixmaster”?) The manager never creates problems; he defuses them. And if there’s one thing I’ve learned in 30 years of hanging around clubhouses, it’s that mood absolutely matters.
