News: Willie and Players before the Game
Prior to tonight’s game, Mets GM Omar Minaya was asked if 
Willie Randolph is in ‘danger of losing his job,’ to which he responded, “No,” adding, “I’m very supportive – and continue to be supportive – of Willie Randolph.”
Meanwhile, Randolph told reporters that he called this afternoon’s team meeting, because he is disappointed with how the team has been playing. According to Randolph, the team’s lack of consistent hitting continues to be their biggest problem, however, he has confidence that they’ll get better.
At the same time, David Wright told SNY that there are no issues in the team’s clubhouse, while Billy Wagner told reporters that he in no way meant to single out Carlos Delgado when suggesting that other players should have stepped up and talked with media after yesterday’s game.
Lastly, Delgado stood in front of his locker and told reporters that the meeting was good, as it allowed for the opportunity to address a few items that needed to be discussed.
…jeez, man…team meetings…interviews with WFAN…Kevin Burkhardt and SNY are doing on-air, one-on-ones with more or less every one, it seems…and they’re all basically regurgitating the same talking points, i.e., no worries, every one is cool, players will talk but reporters need to get to them with questions, etc…i love good messaging…nice work, media department…
