I know I am not the only person who thinks this about Terry Collins. Ready? He is not a good in game manager. He seems to be a great off the field inspirational type of manager. One who will get his team to play for him no matter what the standings are. He has also been saddled over the years with some lackluster players and a ton of injuries but he has also made some really bad lineup and in game pitching changes. But with a quote like this, you can see why folks want to play for him.

We never had that Colactus meltdown that @metspolice and I thought he was going to have. I hope they retain Terry in the organization maybe in the minors to help with development of players.
