    It's Collins fault, Francisco is a JAG FA reliever that's still closing games despite being hands down the worst pitcher in the bullpen all season long, neither Collins or the Mets have any reason to be "loyal" to the guy. It's not even like he's a big name that deserves time to work it out. Acosta also has no business being brought into a close game unless he's the last man out of the pen.

    He mismanaged today ,okay they need a rest but how Parnell , Byrdak were not called is beyond me.

    Acosta should be waived and Francisco should be removed from closing. His reportoire of fastball,fastball,fastball is frightening

    Be that as it may, I am surprised you'd want to spend this much time on our board talking about your teams.

    Your act might not come across as so douchy if you cut out the "we" nonsense and learned the names of non-Miami personnel. You referred to Collins as the manager and did not know Francisco's name either.

    Note to self- there is an ignore button. Haven't used it in 4 or so years. Might want to use it now.

    Believe me, as my father and I were watching it was Collins we were blaming, not Acosta and Francisco. It's not like they're out there trying to be terrible - they just are.

    Collins has done a lot of good this season, but his handling of the bullpen has been horrible all season.

    What can they do? Who can they call up? Who can they trade for? If they're going to compete, they need to get a bullpen arm.

    I have two tickets to the Wednesday game but I'm not sure if I'm going to use them because I have no one to go with.

    Got them for donating blood.

    Put in fucking Parnell. He would be better than this fat fucking piece of shit we call a closer.

    Today I was randomly thinking about those two Washington clowns Lastings Milledge and Elijah Dukes. What wastes of talent.

    Mets up 3-0 going into the 9th and Collins brings in Francisco. If he blows this one it should be a race as to which of the two of them is released first.

    And now the tying run is at the plate. Truly amazing, but not at all surprising.

    Francisco is definitely being squeezed - you think umpires don't watch highlights?
