Quote: Mets Never Wanted Lo Duca
During his weekly appearance on WFAN in New York, SI.com’s Jon Heyman had the following to say when asked why the Mets did not bring back Paul Lo Duca…
“I don’t think the Mets ever wanted Lo Duca. I still think they blame him for what happened in the 2006 playoffs, I think they think he didn’t call the right pitches…they seem to blame Lo Duca. I don’t think they ever wanted him. He was like an option of last resort, in case every thing else didn’t work out. I think they just pefer Torrealba, that’s the bottom line.”
