On his blog for The Record, Steve Popper shares this quote from Omar Minaya regarding Willie Randolph:

“I’m going to tell you that Willie Randolph is our manager,” Minaya said. “He has my support. He has our ownership’s support. And that’s what it is. To me, that’s what I’m going to tell you. I am here to support Willie. Ownership is supporting Willie. We’re supporting everything.

“Hopefully one of the reasons I’m here is to let him know my support and let him know and encourage him and let him know that we believe he can get this team on track, get this team playing to the capabilities it can play. I know Willie’s totally dedicated to doing that, and I believe Willie will do that.”

Omar could show some support for Willie by providing him with some reinforcements. With Marlon Anderson going down tonight, joining the rest of his comrades in the M.A.S.H. unit, adding in the lackluster play of the walking wounded, Willie is in sore need of some soldiers.

Its time for Omar to reconfigure this team, and I don’t mean the manager.
