Willie Watch: The Meeting Is Now


NY Post reporting the meeting was at 2, and that Wilpons showed up at 1:20. My spidey sense thinks they all announce Willie will be the guaranteed manager for the year (to shut up dopey bloggers). Second place spidey sense says Jerry Manuel becomes “interim manager” for the year (boy that would be silly on several levels).

Unrelated – why are some basbeall teams off today? Hey MLB, nice head.

Also: The Mets’ June 1 home game against the Dodgers has been switched to an 8 p.m. start to accommodate ESPN. (NY Post)

>What Does Howie Know About Tomorrow?

Listening to Howie call the 9th inning – sure did sound like he thought he was calling Willie’s final inning.

Will it be Jerry Manuel or will it be Lee? All the newspapers had those at the top two – pretty funny because Lee wasn’t even mentioned until this jerk here started blogging.

Meanwhile on SI.com: SI learned that on the eve of the Subway Series, Mets COO Jeff Wilpon called together Randolph and GM Omar Minaya to impart this message: “You guys need to turn it around, and turn it around quickly.”

I’m predicting Jerry, and I’m predicting the fanbase will be even more ornery that under Willie.
