Heard Joe Girardi had 2nd interview w/Mets yesterday. If they want him they’d likely have to act now as Phillies are ready to make call by end of week and all signs point to JG as Philly favorite. Phils like all 3 of their candidates but JG said to hit it off w/Middleton/Klentak

Girardi seems much more likely to wind up with Phillies. His interviews there are said to have gone great, and perception may be that he’d have more freedom in Philadelphia. Mets covering bases. No certainty he’d be their 1st choice.

Calling it right now. Girardi announcement coming tomorrow at 11:46 am. This to me feels like a done deal. Mets bringing him in just so the fans won’t think they are complete idiots even though they are exactly that. He’ll go to Philadelphia, win a World Series and Mets will be crying over it for the next decade.
No matter how bad a day I’m having I always can give a little giggle and remember it could be worse. I could be a Mets fan. Ring the bell (aka Sign the contract).
