After that 1st attempt to steal by Victorino, when The Human Bobblehead fouled it off, I'm looking at the lead Shane had that next pitch, and I'm sitting here begging Pelfrey to throw over to first.
How can he let him get such a huge lead on the very next pitch?

Well I can confidently say we are gonna tie this game.
I need JCL to guarantee it.

[quote="metsguyinmichigan":1hlrd8bt]What is this, three runs scored in the last four games? Can he start the "Fire HoJo" thing again?[/quote:1hlrd8bt]

Somethings got to give and that's where I'd start to try and shake things up.

The way Kendricks ball was tailing from inside to into the zone on lefties tonight,
if the lefty batter's don't make an adjustment there on their own through smart observation,
it has to be the hitting coach that calls for a correction in positioning in the batters box there.

It's not that one thing though, and it's not any one thing Ho-Jo is or is not doing.
I like Johnson. I don't think firing him is what is needed.
But these guys have gotta be shaken awake and and that's how I'd try and start the process.
