    I don't like that move. I'd rather Giambi's bat in the lineup later.

    They better break this game wide open. If Cairo comes up for Giambi in a tie game later on, I'm going to break things.

    There you go Joe. Micromanagement at it's absolute worst.

    But typical Torre.

    When the hell is he going to realize this team is not constructed for small ball, situational micromanagement? I know the answer is never, and that's exactly why I was calling for his head last October.

    I almost feel sorry for you, Mets fans know your pain with Torre Jr.

    Or Girardi.

    Or Donnie.

    Or promote Bowa.

    Or any of a number of other people.

    But no, let's keep this zombie.

    Can't we bring Girardi down from the booth and make him the manager?

    To be honest, I'd take Willie over Joe in a heartbeat.

    No.

    The icing would be he gets them into the playoffs, gets bounced early, ARod has a MVP year here, then takes his option, signs with the Cubs, and they win the World Series next year.
