Firing your manager is one thing. String him along is another. Making him get on a plane to California and wait until after the Mets win at 3:15am New York time is just unprofessional.

The Mets really showed a lack of professionalism in firing Willie this morning. They fired him since they disagree with his on the field decisions and handling of the players. They replaced him with his bench coach, the same person who helped Willie make those decisions.

We will see now if the Mets respond well. They sure better.
