Ollie Free's The Way To Be

For the love of God, what will it take to get this guy cut?

In just two-thirds of an inning Saturday, Oliver Perez managed to dig himself an even deeper hole, by giving up back-to-back home runs, and then a walk.

I applauded the Mets release of Luis Castillo yesterday. It was something that needed to be done. In all honesty, however, I could have lived with Castillo making the team, at least for a little while. The reason for that being because none of his replacements are all that spectacular either.

What I wouldn't be able to handle is the Mets not releasing Perez. The thought of him on the team at this point is so frustrating, it makes me want to throw things.

The Mets are actually turning out to have a pretty decent bullpen. The thought of guys like Mike O'Connor, Tim Byrdak, or Jason Isringhausen not making the team because they left Perez on the roster is idiotic.

It's time to let the other shoe drop.
