NICE

During the interim, I would circulate a memo tomorrow morning that requires all baserunners to slide feet first, spikes up. DW will be fine; however, I am very interested to see how we respond to our best player getting beaned at a time when our core is on the DL. Its time for gut-check.

1. Too many pitchers have taken too many liberties pitching inside to DW. It was a matter of time as to when he was going to get beaned. So when Cain hit DW in the head, he didn’t do it intentionally, but threw toward him in a way too many pitchers have become accustomed. The tide must be turned.

2. I cannot say that Cain’s tipping his cap to the crowd was classless unless I know why he did it. Was he taunting the crowd or expressing his genuine remorse for beaning DW. Cain does not have a reputation for hitting people. In fact, the last time we faced him he walked a few batters.

3. I am sick of this $hit. I’m glad Pelfrey is pitching tomorrow and I want him to pitch that hard sinker inside all day long, especially to that fat, f**king fathead (yeah, which one…). I want Darryl & Dykstra in uniform tomorrow. Lenny could use a few bucks.

4. Whether Cain meant it or not, the gloves are off against all opponents for the rest of the year. Cain’s pitch betrays an attitude that prevails throughout the league, that you can take out the Mets best player without serious retribution. This attitude must be changed as of tomorrow.
