MANNY ACOSTA RUMORS & GOSSIP

Matt Harvey and Pedro Beato lead Bisons to win

With the struggling Manny Acosta finally banished from the bullpen, Mets fans are hoping Pedro Beato can soon fill the void.  Fortunately, it looks like the 25-year-old is progressing well in his rehab and his 2012 debut for the Mets isn’t far off.  Yesterday, Beato pitched in relief of Matt Harvey, one of New York’s top pitching prospects, and eventually earned the...

Mets Finally Cut Acosta As Turner Heads To DL, Schwinden and Quintanilla Called Up

Following Monday’s 8-4 loss to Philadelphia, the Mets made several roster moves: After leaving the game with an apparent ankle injury, Justin Turner will be placed on the 15-day DL with a sprained ankle. To replace the replacement to the replacement for Ruben Tejada, the Mets have promoted infielder Omar Quintanilla from Triple-A Buffalo to presumably be the everyday shortstop...

Roster Shakeup: Acosta, Schwinden, Quintanilla and What’s Next

Manny Acosta was finally DFA’d today as the Mets made some roster moves. If you watched today’s game, the writing was on wall for Manny pretty much immediately. He came into the game with the Mets down a run and promptly gave up two hits and then some how struck out a batter. Then he gave up a three run bomb and the Mets were basically out of it from that point on. Acosta...

Too ‘Manny’ Chances Already for Acosta

Last night, New York Mets reliever Manny Acosta tossed two innings of relief, allowing three runs on five hits and one walk while striking out four: Following a David Wright two-run shot in the bottom of the sixth — which cut the Mets deficit to 6-3– Acosta surrendered three runs on four hits in the next half inning. Photo by Michael G. Baron Manny allowed the first...

Why Is Manny Acosta Still Here?

An introduction is not necessary as the title does all of the justice. Statistically, he has faltered in every role this season, from set-up man to mop-up guy. Acosta has almost as many walks as innings pitched, allowed more runs then innings pitched and has allowed a run in 10 of his 18 games pitched. So, logical readers of MMO – why is the man still up north occupying a roster...

Acosta is Cost’a Us

(Yes, I stole this headline from something my friend Victorio, who at a game back in 2010 said, Manny Acosta, also known as He’ll Cost Us a Run) It’s time to do something with Manny Acosta. On the season he is 1-2 with a 10.80 ERA. As a way to tell how ineffective has been, last night he went 2 innings, allowed 3 ER and that barely increased his ERA from 10.53. At this...

Mets Thoughts: The 5 spot

1. I think we have seen enough of Manny Acosta. He has his moments, but he really is just a guy that should come in during garbage time. Keith Hernandez put it best the other day when he said “Acosta should not be in when the game is close”. 2. I know Alderson was looking for a cheap alternative at closer when he signed Frank Francisco. I was not against the signing when...

Acosta’d! Astros 4, Mets 3

On a night where Brad Mills’ used 7 pitchers to face 7 batters in 1 inning, I don’t think anyone expected the pitchers’ duel he had through the 6th inning.  R.A. Dickey was once again brilliant, taking a no-hitter into said 6th inning.  That momentum would be taken away with one big swing, however, as Matt Downs hit a 2-run HR to put the Mets in a 3-0 hole withÂ...
