Shooter's right. Willie's going nowhere. He's also right that this has been one of the biggest collapses in MLB history. And to add insult to injury, the Yankees (once 14.5 games out of first) are the AL Wild Card team. Lovely.
IMHO, the Mets' most screaming need is pitching. And handling a pitching staff also happens to be (again IMHO) one of Willie's biggest weaknesses.
This does not bode well for 2008, boys...
