Redding or Not - He's Done!

Monday, July 20, 2009

According to the Daily News, according to our Blogfather Matthew Cerrone, the Mets had decided to release Tim Redding by the end of this road trip.

Cerrone says, "However, given last night’s injury to Fernando Nieve, it would seem, instead, the Mets will likely keep Redding around, since Nieve will most certainly soon end up on the disabled list. It seems most everyone believes Jon Niese, who in his last 8 starts is 5-1 with a 0.96 ERA in Triple-A, will replace Nieve in the rotation, while Redding will bump to the bullpen."

...Redding was counting his blessings a little too early... $2.2 million to suffer with us Mets fans and then he gets the easy way out... We, on the other hand, are sufferers for life...

...It's amazing to me how Redding was able to win 10 games last year with the Nationals...I've said that due to baseball inflation, a win in Washington is worth 2 in the outside world...That would make him a 20 game winner last year...This year Redding is 1-4 giving new meaning to the words, "Tiny Tim"....

We think Redding's baseball pitching problems are due to the fact that he warms up with a football but what do we know... We're just fans, right?
