Why do the Mets have their heels so far dug into the ground on Heilman? Heilman has more of a repetoire compared to Pelf and he throws just as hard and with more movement. I hear ya Real.

The approach that got him a .300 AVG with a .370 OBP is just fine, especially for an 8 hitter. That's silly. Just because we want him to swing more? Let him take as many pitches as he wants. He works the pitcher more than anyone on the team. The guy does not need to change his approach. The approach that got him a .300 AVG with a .370 OBP is just fine, especially for an 8 hitter.

Not to mention, what do you do with Murphy then? Reyes, Church, Wright, Delgado, Beltran, Ibanez, Molina, Castillo is not a bad lineup. Or my favorite, Schnieder.

Saying if you don't bend to meet us then we just will move on. Ibanez just does not fit to me unless we trade Delgado or Church. I think that is just puting pressure on the pitchers.
