TERRY COLLINS RUMORS

How Many Times Must Collins Get Burned, Before He Stops Playing With Fire?

Losing sucks in general, but losing the way we did last night always carries the added stigma that the loss might have been avoidable if not for a critical turning point that sealed the team’s fate in the most horrific of ways. Dillon Gee started the game and was pitching solidly coming of his nine-strikeout gem in his last start. He had scattered a few hits and the only blemish...

Phillies steal game from Mets, 10-6

Mets manager Terry Collins brought in Bobby Parnell to replace Mets’ starter Dillon Gee to face pinch hitter Carlos Ruiz with the Mets ahead 3-1 with two outs. Boom. Carlos Ruiz hit a two-run home run to tie the game, 3-3. Cliff Lee, who worked a nice double play in the 2nd, did not get the win, again, but did not get the loss. That happened because the inning before, Mets’...

New York Mets Ready to Run the Gauntlet

Terry Collins and the Mets have begun a tough 25 game stretch against teams above .500. The Mets are two games through the 25-game gauntlet and so far are 1-1. The next 23 will be against teams above .500 and teams that all look like contenders at this point, including AL teams which can blow your doors off with the DH in the lineup. The first game loss to Cole Hamels and the Phillies...

Like Terry Collins, you should have faith in Frank Francisco

About three weeks ago, I asked how you felt about Frank Francisco. The comments ranged from “CRINGE” to “nervous” to “HORRIBLE.” Since then he’s pitched in eight games, has an 0-2 record with 5 Saves and an 8.10 ERA. Yet I actually feel better about Francisco now then I did when I wrote the earlier piece. Francisco allowed runs in each of his first three outings...

Terry Collins Makes Right Move Not Sending Ike Davis to Minors

The struggling Ike Davis was mentioned to be going to the Minor Leagues, but Manager Terry Collins has decided to keep the first baseman with the Mets. As of now, the Mets don’t have many options at first base and really have no choice but to keep him as their everyday first baseman. Vinny Rottino is not the answer at first base and sending Davis to the Minors would hurt the...

Cracks Appearing In 2012 Mets’ Feel-Good Story

Regression to the mean can be a cruel thing. Maybe that’s why it’s called “mean.” The Mets seem to be running full-speed, headlong in that direction. Since busting out 4-0 against Atlanta and Washington, Terry Collins’s crew has gone a definition-of-mediocre 18-20. Much as I hate to say it, perhaps the preseason prognosticators were right: weak starting pitching...

New York Mets sport NHL jerseys for road trip

Skipper Terry Collins and the New York Mets had some fun heading into their upcoming road trip. To commemorate the NHL playoffs the boys of summer decided to pimp out sweaters of their favorite hockey players and teams. We saw Justin Tuck of the Giants supporting the Rangers in his wild celebration, so it’s good to see the New York teams really come full circle in supporting...

David Wright was livid with Terry Collins for protecting him from getting hit by pitch

Very rarely will you come across a player who wants to be hit by a pitch, but Tuesday night in New York was an exception. During the seventh inning of the Brewers blowout win over the Mets, Ryan Braun was hit in the shoulder with a D.J. Carrasco fastball. The umpire felt that there was obvious intent, so Carrasco was ejected. With David Wright due to lead off in the bottom of the...

Terry Collins admits the Mets still don’t know some of their own signs

If the Mets opponents have managed to steal some of their signals this season, they are doing a better job of memorizing than the Mets themselves. To the casual viewer, it would appear that Terry Collins is not a fan of the hit-and-run. Through 18 games this season, the Mets have barely used it. However, that is not because Collins never calls for it. The Mets simply haven&rsquo...
