Ryan Madson has about as much of a perspective on the Mets/Phillies rivalry as anyone – the Phillies setup man told Scott Lauber just how he feels about those who play for the Mets.
“Some of the guys on their team just wouldn’t fit in our clubhouse, and some of the guys here just wouldn’t fit with their guys,” Madson said. “That’s just how it is.
“It’s one of those things where it’s like two totally different mentalities, two different attitudes, everything,” he said. “We just don’t believe in the same things. Our two teams, it’s like oil and water.”
While there is no doubt that Carlos Beltran and Jose Reyes would have no place on this Phillies team, there is no denying their talent. Madson is simply stating that they are the losers they are – and the Phillies are the winners they are.
Well said.
