Not sure if this was already posted and I don't even know if this is the right board anymore (I know there's a Mets board but it doesn't get any traffic).
So what do the Mets fans, or any baseball fans, think of this move?

Re: Randolph named new Mets manager
Since the Mets board is getting removed... this is now the currect place.
I am not thrilled with this move, but i'll give him a chance.
This reminds me of the NY Rangers hiring Brian Trottier (A long-time hated Islander) as their manager/coach. How long did he last? Five months?

Re: Randolph named new Mets manager
Don started this discussion this morning on NWR, and it died out with all the chaos that ensued since. Now I see it was moved to 'Mets' (though Ron did say the Mets, Yankees, and a few other boards were going to be removed)
That's why having all of these boards gets confusing.
My hesitation with them hiring him is I think that team needs an experienced manager who will discipline them. They are not going to get that with Willie.

I totally agree. I'm not sure how he'll be different from Art Howe when it comes to player control and discipline - especially the veterans. Though what they really need to do is get rid of some of them.

A video of the announcement is on MLB.com if you care to watch it.
