Note: Delgado’s Platoon, and Media Conspiracy
According to the New York Post, though Carlos Delgado did not have a problem with sitting out Tuesday and Wednesday against left-handed starters, ‘a platoon situation would not go over well with the veteran first baseman.’
Last night, Delgado was 2 for 4 in his return to the lineup, and also made an impressive full-extension, diving grab on a ground ball hit behind first base.
SNY snagged a nice shot of Willie Randolph pumping his fist to 
Delgado, looking happy and impressed by the play.

Meanwhile, in a recent report in El Nuevo Dia, Delgado is quoted as criticizing reporters for creating a ‘soap opera,’ regarding the team’s recent struggles and situation involving Randolph.
According to Delgado, he and Carlos Beltran support Randolph, but, he says, the press is trying to make a small situation bigger than it needs to be, picking out only the bad stories and making it too big of a deal.
