Raekwon asked me if I was concerned Ike was a bust in May or June. I told him the guy had missed a year, and was still developing--he needed to get his timing and eye back. I said he'd probably pick it up in the second half. Looks like the kid 'll be alright.
Davis has had a bizarre season, one that seems almost unfathomable. Consider in his first 56 games through June 8, the Mets first baseman was hitting .158 with five homers, 21 RBIs and a .507 OPS — a full-season pace of 15 homers and 61 RBIs. About as bad as it gets.
But in 50 games since, he’s hitting .267 with 15 homers, 40 RBIs (a full-season pace of 49 homers and 130 RBIs) and a .907 OPS — production that would rank him among the NL’s best hitters.

Like Ike... if I could be like Ike
Apparently the front office doesn't share your optimism--just further proving your point...

Which point is that, DC?
Your point being, that Ike is tearing it up now and performing as we hoped he would.
Of course management's view would be completely contradictory to that and not realize what they have right now.
Basically, I'm saying that them being their usual idiot selves is evidence of just how correct your view is...
