“Manuel is 190–198 in 2.5 seasons managing the Mets, who have looked totally disinterested during the last two months of this season. He was mostly a .500 manager with the White Sox too, short of one fantastic season. In his heart and mind, I truly believe Manuel expected this team to evolve and grow from the back-to-back collapses and the experiences of the last few seasons… I think he thought, by now, they would have bonded and started trusting one another and playing better baseball. But, it hasn’t happened. It isn’t working.”
