Joe Benigno is officially waning on his Buck Showalter support.
“I’m getting ready for the Carlos Beltran to take over the Mets bandwagon soon,” Joe said. “The bullpen is a disaster. You cannot say enough bad things…David Peterson isn’t pitching bad, he gave up one run over four innings, and he’s out of the game? What?!
“Still the worst loss of the year, when they were up 7-3 against Philly…Carlos Carrasco is pitching a decent game, four innings, gave up two runs, he’s at 78 pitches, and he’s out of the game. What are you doing?”
Joe is fed up with Showalter’s eagerness to take the ball from his starters, especially when he is turning things over to one of the worst bullpens in baseball.
“Buck manages the Mets bullpen aggressively like he has the Yankee bullpen from 1998,” Joe said.
