    Terry Collins? WTF?

    You see his lineup tonight?

    He's got Bobby Abreu hitting clean up
    He's got the pitcher, deGrom hitting 8th, and E Young batting ninth.

    Has he lost his mind?

    Worst manager in baseball. Overreacts to everything. Has completely butchered the bullpen this season.

    Teams bat pitchers in the 8th spot before. Gives them two lead off guys for 9th and 1st.

    Doesn't managing the Mets automatically make you the worst in baseball (tie with whoever is managing the Cubs)? It's like they put on the uniform and completely lose their minds. Might as well wear dunce caps to the ballpark.

    deGrom has done a decent job at the plate why not move him up in the order. I personally like the move.
