Mets more then likely will pull plug on Ollie Perez Saturday

Another horrible outing and there is really no excuses to listen to now. Manager Jerry would not back his pitcher and how could he at this point. He said that he has talk to all parties involved and will talk to them tomorrow. Perez got hammered with a sub par fast ball buy giving up 4 home runs in the Mets 7-2 loss.

After the game Manager Jerry spoke with Omar in the managers office. No word on what there decision will be until tomorrow. I mean at this point Perez needs to be removed from the rotation end of story. He might go on the DL with shoulder fatigue since Dan Warthen does not see the ball exploding out of his hand like it used to.

If they pull Ollie from the rotation R A Dickey in buffalo is on the same pitching rotation as Ollie. The knuckleballer gave up 3 runs over 8 innings earlier tonight in a 5-3 victory. Pat Misch is pitching well and so is Dillion Gee. Takahashi really is not stretched to give more then 3-4 innings in a start at this point.

Ollie at this point would have to agree to go to the minors. I do not think the Mets would release the lefty . He was leaving balls up in the zone and his once wicked fastball that use to clock in at 95mph barely hit 90 tonight.

Of course whatever they do with Ollie doesnt help the Mets anemic offense who only had 4 hits again. Changes need to made to the batting order. After the game Bay, and Reyes and Frenchy were just sitting in the dugout staring into space.
