If he feels that way, it’s fine. Billy doesn’t speak for the team. That’s just him. That’s just his opinion.” It is me or am I the only one is pretty tick off how this is just another example of how dismissive Willie is toward his teammates? “I wouldn’t go that route, but that’s Billy,” Randolph said. “Billy gets a little emotional at times.

Wagner said what had to be said and he had every right to do so. How the starters do in the game directly correlates to how the bullpen will be used. Yes the offensive has a lot to do with it as well but a starter who does not even put up a fight is worth criticizing. I find it hard to believe that any Mets fan had a problem with what Wagner said that night. I also think that most fans want to hear it more often if they perform the way they did in with Bucs. If Willie is not going to criticize his players then someone else should. That someone else should be a person who has experience and can back his own work up. Day by day I continue to question whether Willie can handle his job. Its a good thing it is not up to me. Willie is 100% wrong. Wagner said what had to be said and he had every right to do so.

He has earned the right as a veteran pitcher to be vocal towards a young pitcher that needs some guidance. It seemed Perez was fine with the comments and knows they were true. I see Wagner trying to help, they are on the same team trying to win. Willie needs to shut up and do nothing...He is good at that. Perez is still learning and has the talent and it can be frustrating watching him pitch at times. Kind of like Pelfrey...Awesome at times but awful at other times. IMO…Wagner has said nothing wrong.
