Only a met fan would want to fire a manager while a team is above .500

On top of having to suffer through Ike's season-long troubles, the Mets lose their starting catcher and shortstop, both of whom were hitting quite well I might add, and have had to plug in Chris Schwinden and Miguel Batista into the rotation at various times, yet have a record of 22-20 in a division where the worst team has a rotation featuring Roy Halladay, Cliff Lee and Cole Hamels.
Things could be so much worse right now and people actually want the manager fired???
There are a couple moves I would make ASAP though.
1. Ike to AAA, move The Dude to 1B 2. Release Acosta, call up Elvin Ramirez
Then you just have to hope Thole gets back quickly and continues hitting like he was.

Terry has no clue how to manage a baseball game. He makes 2 or 3 horrible decisions just about every game. What exactly does he bring to the table? His players don't hate him? That's not going to last the more they see how incompetent he is at managing a game.
