Mets Hire Bobby Valentine Lite


The Mets have been wheelin' and dealin' to fill in vacancies in the front office. The Mets brought on Sandy Alderson as their new GM, followed by Paul DePodesta who will take over as vice president of player development and scouting. The only thing left...manager.

It was JUST announced that Terry Collins has been offered the job as the new skipper of the Mets.

So let's see...new GM: Check, new manager: check, same 25 guys playing on the field: check.

Filling up your front office with Harvard grads and then adding Terry Collins to the mix, well...doesn't really do much for me.

At the end of the day, the same players are still here.

Great managers don't necessarily make great players. Great players definitely make great managers. Just ask Charlie Manuel.

Only time will tell whether the 2011 season will be any different from seasons past.
