The NY Post nails Jerry on all talk, no action

"That has been the theme of Jerry Manuel's mantra from day one of spring training: We are not gonna leave anything to chance. We are gonna pay attention to every detail." -- MetsNew York Mets play-by-play man Gary Cohen

Well, somebody's not paying attention.

The Mets -- who can't stop talking about how every, single game is important; haven't you seen the past two years? -- arguably have given away eight possible victories already this season because they don't pay attention to details.

"I think we have lacked some things in the area of focus and the intangibles in baserunning and defense," Manuel admitted to Mike Francesa on WFAN this week.

THEN WHY ISN'T ANYTHING BEING DONE ABOUT IT?!?!

Not much I can add. Read the whole column here.

Yup, this is the most disappointing aspect of '09 Mets. Absolutely no progress on what was the most inexcusable aspect of the team: too many mental errors, too much lack of discipline.
