Bobby Valentine says Manager Jerry up for the task

Lots of speculation going around with the Mets starting off 3-6. My colleague here started his Jerry getting canned watch earlier today. How long will the Mets go with Manager Jerry.

According to ESPN's Bobby V "Jerry Manuel is up for the task. I think that he has a tough road…There’s no doubt about it, and he’s got to keep his head above water until his center fielder comes back and obviously has to get that pitching staff in shape."

So at this point the former Met manager is being a good solider. Honestly though the Mets would probably start with Bob Melvin if the Mets did a manager change. Bobby V more then likely would want full control of the entire roster and I do not see that happening with Omar as a GM even if he is part puppet at this point. Maybe for 2011 Valentine might be a brighter choice.

Right now I would still prefer Manager Jerry get the guys moving. It has only been 9 games.
