El Duque in a boot for at least 7-10. Not clear whether he would be ready to start in a potential first round playoff series.

Closed door meeting going on right now between Willie and the team.

you sure it's not a player's only meeting cause thats what glavine said was happening according to metsblog

also loduca on the fan today
when asked if he would like willie to go out and defend his players when they get tossed out of a game ... 4 solid seconds of silence

im sorry i think he's right. So now him and Delgado and Wright and Glavine and Wagner need to hold a meeting, take this team by the balls, and tell them its now or never, hustle 100% on every play, no more errors, stop settling for mediocrity, etc etc

ok here it is
According to WFAN’s Ed Coleman, Willie Randolph talked to the team in private, which was followed by a player-only, closed-door meeting, as well.

he did throw his helmet, i assume thats a big reason for it. and the helmet did hit the phillies catcher, who then kicked it out of the way.

when i was at the game saturday, i was there with my 8 yr old niece. she asked why i was mad when they put mota in. i said because he's been doing really bad and the manager keeps using him. her response? "well thats a pretty bad manager"

i found it funny. for the most part i'm a willie supporter, but yea sometimes he makes me shake my head. would have been nice if he got thrown out when marlon did.

I don't think Mota will make the post-season roster if you catch my drift...

I used to not mind Willie, because he basically didn't do anything egregious to screw up the team and the players seemed to like him. That's all out the window now. He is actively [censored] the team nearly every day. This Pelfrey thing is the last straw. He's been [censored] unhittable since they brought him back up, and now, not only are we forced to watch Brian Lawrence, Sele, and Mota throw batting practice in a [censored] tight playoff race while Pelfrey sits in hiding, but now he's excluding him from the playoffs as well. This is a [censored] travesty.

Note that I'm accusing Willie of all this, because he is the face of the decisions. If Omar is behind any of it, then [censored] him too, but as far as I know, Omar puts players on the roster, and Willie chooses which ones to (mis)use.

I don't even like PLD, but his comments, or lack thereof, on WFAN are pretty [censored] damning.

This is frustrating beyond belief, because this is the first time since my childhood in the 80's where I really love the guys on the team for the most part. I love Beltran (even when he's struggling with injury or swinging over curveballs), Reyes (even with his recent popupfest), Wright (ok, he's been pretty awesome), Endy, Gomez, Pedros, Ollie, Maine, ElDuque, Castro, Milledge, Alou, Delgado, and even Wagner. I don't even mind a bunch of other guys on the team.

When they lost in the NLCS last year, I was sad, but I felt like they did what they could and just got beat by a pitching staff that got super hot at the right time. This year, I feel like they're not even being given a chance, and if they somehow manage to luckbox their way to a WS victory, it will be in SPITE of the biggest obstacle sitting in their own dugout.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKK KKKKKKKK
