if you need to relive the last six months, and are eager to pin blame, or you just want to rush towards the future, read the following, as there is a lot to digest today if you’re interested…
In the Star-Ledger, the always-wise Dan Graziano considers how Omar Minaya can best rebuild the pitching staff.
The Observer continues it’s strong run of Mets coverage, with a letter to Fred Wilpon by Howard Megdal, a look at the future of Willie Randolph by John Koblin, and a thank you to the team’s fans by Josh Benson.
In Newsday, Ken Davidoff simply states, “the Mets just weren’t good enough.”
Meanwhile, in the Daily News, John Harper is overwhelmed with the level blame that must be passed around Shea Stadium, though he fires mostly at Minaya.
Speaking of blame, in the New York Times,Michael S. Schmidt accuses the team of jinxing itself by building auxiliary seating boxes for the post-season, which they will never get a chance to use.
Also, in the New York Times, Jack Curry paints Willie Randolph as a depressed man, writing…
“Two Mets who witnessed Randolph’s five-minute speech said his eyes became moist and his voice weakened when he talked about what the team had destroyed by playing listlessly for two and a half weeks.”
Lastly, for a spin through opinion in the Mets blogosphere, check out the Global NY Mets Fan Blog, Sidd’s Speechless at HotFoot, Yes, Joe, It’s Toasted, Metsradamus, Faith and Fear, BMF, MiracleMets.net, which is back online following a short hiatus.
