Just as the ink dried on Bob Raissmann’s New York Daily News weekend column, the one that suggested Terry Collins is a one-of-a-kind, honest manager among the few, the proud, the New York Mets manager opened his mouth and out poured the same doublespeak every major league manager is prone too.
Prior to Sunday’s game in Toronto the media queried Collins on whether Ike Davis‘ struggles at the plate could result in a sojourn to Buffalo. “There’s nothing etched in stone,” Collins said. “We will never say something’s not going to happen.” Then, Collins exited, penciled Davis in to the No. 7 spot in the lineup and proceeded to watch his first baseman go 1-for-4, leaving three men on base in a one-run Mets win over the Blue Jays.
